50cc scooter goes 60kmh in the city after purchase, 45?
Hi, as stated in the title, I have a Kalio Explorer 50 from ATU. However, it can go up to 65 km/h downhill. How likely is it that you'll be stopped and your speed checked? On a straight stretch, it takes about 55.
Thanks

It may be that the speedometer indicates a higher speed than you actually drive, which is also the case with some cars. In order to bridge the speedometer, you can measure the speed by GPS with your smartphone, choose a distance that goes straight at least 500m to 1km without curves, and then drive at constant speed.
This goes without GPS, of course, if you know the exact length of a track (not measured only with the kilometer counter of scooter or car, but the actual length) then you can stop the time for this track and calculate the speed: meters per second x 3.6.
For example, if you need 80 seconds for 1km, that would be exactly 45 km/h.
How high the probability is that you are stopped is hard to say that this is certainly very different regionally. When I was on the road with scooters over 15 years ago, the police controlled very often, especially near schools. At any rate, the probability is much higher than being stopped by the car…
Thank you for your detailed answer. Living rather rural. The speedometer does not spin loud gps I drive 61 with full throttle.
And this mess board in the village shows the same. This is very well set as it always matches in the car.
If I get caught now, I'll get 100% of my driving license removed?
I don't think they're pulling the driver's license when you're stopped for the first time, probably you're gonna have to shut down social hours and throttle the scooter to 45 and show at the TÜV that they're gonna show you everything's OK.
If you are stopped several times, but they will definitely remove the driver's license and then you probably have to get to the MPU to get it back. Of course, you can only make a car license if you passed the MPU…
Did you buy the new scooter from ATU? Then you better go there and complain that he's driving too fast.
If you bought it used by the dealer, you can also complain, in the first half year after purchase, this should go without problems and free, because of warranty. If that's been a long time ago, it'll probably be a bit more difficult because you can prove badly that it was already when buying, then you can only hope for cunning…
If you bought it from private, you will probably have to throttle it yourself. But you can still ask the seller if he can tell you what was changed, maybe he also has the original parts.
Probably the spacer ring is missing from the Variomatic, perhaps another exhaust was also built or the resonance tube was reflected from the exhaust or something. So I don't know how this scooter is really original throttled, but these are so common things that have been used for choking for over 20 years…
Yes, at trial time, the praise will probably be right away…
Nevertheless, you can ask them to upgrade if they sell the 45 km/h scooter and 45 km/h is entered in the papers, it can only drive so fast.
ATU is (representative to the manufacturer) responsible for the fact that the sold scooters are also permitted for road transport. Otherwise, they would have had to sell you that without papers, with the indication that he must not be driven on public roads.
If the original drive is too fast, the operating permit has been invalid from the outset, if you are now stopped, you will get problems for driving without a driving permit, driving without a valid operating permit, and possibly driving without insurance cover because only 45kmh are insured.
To be on the safe side, you have to ATU to make sure that he only drives 45…
It is known that the roller model is reached from the beginning faster than 45 and more than 60.
Now I still have a rehearsal time, and that's why they're afraid to take the tab away
Buy a restored S 51, which has its legal 60 Km/h in the license but usually drive a bit faster. And these mopeds can even be driven with class AM, as they are classified as a small-powered wheel, thanks to agreement. However, these mopeds need gasoline mixture 1:50. On 1 liter red Stiehl high-performance two-stroke oil for motor sinks come 50 liters of gasoline. Only high-quality two-stroke oil and 100 octane gasoline drive thanks to the engine and keeps its 50,000 km away if not thundered.
These cheap scooters also barely last 2 years.
You're responsible for the retrofit he's driving STVZO compliant.
And how it seems that you get caught
100%
I only live in a small town by the way and have never seen such a control there
Rarely, in case of repetition, the search is greatly extended.
Is it smart to get a fake license plate and drive away in serious cases?
