Moped goes too fast, what to do?
Hello, I recently bought a 50cc Rieju MRT 50 from the used market.
The seller said everything was in original condition.
The vehicle's MOT (MOT) had already expired, so I replaced it. Everything was fine, so I think everything was original, but the tire had to be replaced.
Now the problem is that the moped ran 70kmh today with tailwind (usually 67kmh)
So the moped is well run in? But I'm scared the police will catch me.
What could I do?

These small motorcycles have been built since 2009, and since then their permissible maximum speed has been 45 KM/h.
If your mokick would actually bring more than 60 KM/h on a straight line even without a tailwind, so could be that then go in the direction of "driving without a driving permit".
If the speedometer of your vehicle shows you quite often on a straight track more than 55 to almost 60 KM/h, there would be nothing more with "tolerances" . Even if we are generous with +5% power scattering in the series and +10% permissible speed advance = +15%, the speedometer should hardly reach 52 KM/h .
Therefore, first of all, by means of the technical entries in the vehicle papers, check whether the parts are to be incorporated:
– Tire sizes
– Number of teeth in chain sprocket and chain ring
– Type and size of the carburetor
– Maximum idle speed (if possible)
– Air filter (completeness, possibly visible manipulation attempts at the box)
– EN – / or type-approval number of the exhaust system if it no longer corresponds to the original plant.
You can simply limit the gas train at the correct speed.
Slowly drive
