Look for an unlimited mileage warranty for at least a year. Consider a fully automatic model. A manual can be harder to drive. Will your moped have a push-button start or a kick start? Or Both? Is there lockable storage? Will your moped be delivered to your doorstep ready to go? How quickly can they be delivered? Check the fuel economy. Look for a four stroke engine for a quieter ride. Check it’s suitable to be ridden by a 16 year old if you are a young driver. Look for free extras like a top box or screen. Can you just buy it online and get it delivered the next day?
Mopeds have a specific definition in UK which makes them different from larger motorcycle:
To be a moped, the following must be true:
- The moped must go no faster than 30 mph.
- The engine capacity but be no greater than 50cc.
A moped doesn’t have pedals although technically, if it can be driven with pedals, it is a ‘moped’ if it was first used before 1 September 1977. Frankly, unless you are a classic moped enthusiast, you would be better off going for a new 50cc moped for sale. If you want pedals, buy a bicycle!
