How to drive a 50cc moped
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ต.ค. 2014
- Thank you all for all of the views, likes and comments! As of now, I have a car, and I sold the moped. I have absolutely no complaints about it at all! While this isn't Yamaha or Vespa quality, for under $800, it serves it's purpose as a low cost, reliable, and fun little bike with great gas milage! This is a TaoTao ATM50-A1 scooter.
Bro this is the bomb compared to getting a shitty bus
Tanzil Latif just get one of these and your good for life.
@Versatile Wolf probably meant that a moped is better than riding a bus
@Versatile Wolf 50cc bikes are bulletproof they never die
Yeah if you live in America

Earl what happened im confused
Junior Northern you need help
Junior Northern ....Don't worry, you're not alone! I didn't get it either! It's probably because he ran the stop sign.
The Master Commenter ....What's your problem?
Junior Northern
He ran a stop sign in an empty parking lot 😂
"You don't need a license to drive it"
Me: *cries in Namibian because it's a must to have a license*
In Germany you need 1 too....Did Not know there are countries where you don't need 1
There are countries where you don't need one. Tanzania is a great example 😅😅
@@loisienyami5095 thats lucky...In Germany it costs for me 1100 Dollars...

@@loisienyami5095 and im a twin so for my mom its fucking expensive
in hawaii u don't have to wear anything on a moped. I would go to school in flip flops and board shorts that's it.
Ma! I'm moving to Hawaii!
Damn
@@Padlaizys damn indeed, a year after I posted this comment I fractured my skull in an accident and nearly died. Wear a helmet.
@@TheMasterFro hope you are doing alright?

I GOT TO GET A FREAKING MOPED
And Now I have One Finally

Lamarz Hamilton what did you get
Definitely DON'T hold the brake while accelerating, this will destroy the tranmission / variator quick !
Thank U.🏋️♂️🤑
You've got to hold the brake while starting it? But I didn't know that you shouldn't hold the brake while accelerating it while it's on but you want to hold the brake while starting it and accelerating it I think that's what they were talking about
Ikr😂😂🤦
Ma che cazzo stai a di hahaha

Thanks for this😊 I'm 16 soon and thinking of getting one of these, since you have to be 17 in the uk to drive a car!
In Canada you can get them at 14 as soon as you have a learners permit, which is just a 30 question written test

I have a motorcycle license. I ride motorcycles. I have a brand new 2018 model of this same moped. They're fun to ride. Keep aware of your surroundings. In Nevada you need a plain old drivers license. Mopeds can only go 30 mph.( but they can be rigged to go faster, just don't get caught.) Can't be more than 2 HP. No insurance needed.
Good to know! We're looking at moving to NV soon from NC. Here, you need a license, registration, and insurance.
s c o o t e r n o t m o p e d
Come to sweden I beg you lol. You can get a licence for this at 15. Its a fucking cult here. I pulled a identical one to this from my garage yesterday that my dad commuted to work with in our old town, and ima use it to buzz around and be free with it
In Texas you just need a scooter license to drive one but I have a regular DL and I'm picking one up for 450 in good condition
In Georgia u only need a permit
Lean, not dive.
no you mean dive
Thank you 🤦🏽♂️😂
DIVE! DIVE! DIVE!
You ride a scooter. Not drive.
SWIM while driving the moped for maximum SPEED!
Great video bud, I'm getting my moped this week driving it only to and from work and maybe close places by. This video was very helpful and informative on driving tips,techniques and opinions keep them coming!
Believe me, your gonna enjoy your new moped!
Julian Moped not reliable to go to work. It can break down randomly or start going slow and you'll be late or miss a day. Unless you have a Honda or Yamaha brand scooter, don't use moped for work.
***** The scooter in this video is actually really reliable and many people use only scooters like this for work, groceries, and school.
Faith Middleton If you want to use moped for work have 2 of them and carry a bunch of stuff for repairs. If this particular model (or brand?) is as reliable as you say then it's just an exception. I've owned 2 mopeds so far and had plenty of things go wrong in the year I've owned them. Not always enough to stop me but enough to make me late if I were traveling to work. I was going to a job interview recently and the belt went out on me. I didn't get the job. Managers want workers with reliable transportation and have little or no tolerance for missed days or being late. The weird thing is the belt didn't even have that much mileage. I also randomly got a flat tire one time and what saved me was green slime.
***** if you properly take care of it, it can last for along time. I have 30k miles and still runs fine. also bored out and a lot of proformance parts. make sure you maintain the small motors more than a big motor
Getting a moped today after years of wanting one. This video was helpful. Thanks for taking the time to make it
Scooter's and mopeds are really fun and much cheaper that cars. One payment and its yours ( you own it) maintenance is easy and insurance is far more practical in pricing than even the cheapest vihickle. I've owned 2 different types both the 150cc and the 250cc. Absolutely great for transportation...
John Hernandez isn’t it considered a motorcycle past 50cc? At least in Florida it is
7:49 Im calling the cops

Did not think I would stumble on my old community college while looking to learn how to drive a scooter
This is an excellent tutorial, if I ever live in a state like Virginia, I'll be putting this tutorial to work!
Thanks, Jim! hope it helped! btw, get a TaoTao, they are the cheapest I could find that isn't total crap
I live in va this a great tutorial
I live in Virginia
I’m in prince William county
System6 Rail Videography yessir fairfax county right here except I’m getting an electric dirt bike, making it street legal and registering it as a moped so I don’t need a license
I bought mines for $700 new take it to work every day
nice
+Christian Mena I wanna buy some "mines" !
sounds nice
I want to get one for school (8+km). Im 14 :D
Did you buy a gold mine or a coal mine? Maybe a salt mine??
I didn't know it was so hard out there for scooters & mopeds. No respect? I respect them. I think they're nice and charming. They make me think of France. I'm personally not starting on one, because a like sport bikes, and power, and I need the speed & power for highways, and losing threats, or darting from bad situations.
Sometimes, to avoid an accident, slowing down is the wrong answer, but only if you have the power & agility, if not, you really need to have the best decisions, and do the best actions, with what you have.
Anyway, I would wave to any scooter or moped, as I would any other motorbike....unless I know they're an asshole, or evil.
"You don't need a license" In finland, you need to be 15 years old, do 6 hours of theory and 3 hours of driving practice😂and a theory exam and a handling exam
Ok..in Latvia,you just need to pass theory(20 questions,2 false answers allowed)and driving.But i was lucky because i passed before the season closing and from this years season opening(April)all the pretendents will need to pass driving in traffic too :D which can be a little bit harder and more expensive
Not anymore. Now it's just 1hour theory and driving test ;)
@@tor3647 In Ireland you need to pass a theory test of 40 questions a pass is 35 and 16 hrs of tuition min age is 16
@@derekmulready1523 Sorry in Finland we have to do theory test too but that's 70 questions and allowed to get 10wrong I think?
In sweden you have to be 15 and do a theory test and a driving test
Remember your helmet. Mine just saved my wretched life after a concealed pothole swallowed my front wheel and over the handlebars I went. Fractured neck vertebra, cracked collarbone and still lots of pain, but I am alive. My helmet is not. This was a motorized bike, licensed and ridden as a moped, and I wasn't moving more than 20 mph.
Helmet. Really.
How are you doing now?
Need to get one of these uber is burning my wallet
I just got a moped for Christmas. Three days ago I got my permit and made it street legal. This had been helpful. I've practiced in my yard on sharp turns and deep turns. But could only go 10/15 on my land. Looking forward to the open world. Tomorrow will be the big day, as I'm going to the doctors. Thanks for this videos really has been helpful.
How was the moped journey
@@svinnys5467 it was actually really fun. The joy of the rushing wind. The small amount of power it gave you on the road. I caution anyone to be careful around patches of dirt. That got me a few times even in a slow turn. And I can't stress this enough. Be on top of your oil. It burns it up fast in my experience. However, I did ride it all over town everyday. But, I highly recommend a moped to any new bikers.
it's not like riding a bike, I rode a Schwinn road bike for years, in all kinds of traffic, until some idiot went left of center, hit me head on, and broke my back, that's what you get for trying to be healthy!! a scooter, especially one with accessories, is a lot heavier, usually over 200 pounds, so there is a lot of gyroscopic effect, you don't have on a bike. Some of these 50cc bikes can hit 50-60 MPH depending on if the bike is restricted. It's not a toy, wear a good helmet, gloves, boots, heavy jacket, road rash is road rash, it doesn't matter if on a scooter or a harley, even 30 mph, wearing shorts and flip flops, will ruin your day if you wreck.
Lmao I’m looking for a new one these are so fun toys it’s awesome what not being a safety freak can do
Ur referencing someone else's post lol
Dude makes driving a moped look like rocket science 😂😂
this is a tutorial for beginners
@@abcxyz-py6uw he was making a joke lmao
Just watching these for fun :D I've been on the road for 2 years riding a geared 125 on a CBT in the UK which expires every 2 years and i'm doing it again tomorrow but before my first one i watched these type of videos so i thought i would bring back some memories :D
I live in the UK as well and am going to start my cbt soon
Why not just take the test and get your licence?
@@wolfymudkips4266 2 years late but it’s a lot of fun, I quit riding at the end of my third CBT as I lost my love for bikes but I just recently got that love back again and bought a project so I can sort that and get on the road again
@@gatehanger1385 I ended up doing 3 CBTs over all but lost my love for bikes at the end of 2019 but I recently got that love back and bought a project so I can build that up and get back on the road (Yamaha DT125R) which I owned one and sold it in 2020 because I’m stupid so got another one and I might actually do my A2 at some point so I can put a 170cc or 200cc kit in it
I am thinking about getting one. The only place I would end up going that’s the farthest is about 20 minutes away
You can get farther than that lol
Here in Finland you need a license that costs 200-700€ (depending on the location and school).
Same here in greece, but its cheaper, more like 300-450€
Soon America will charge people for a license too we are becoming socialists like you
Rob Bobbert damn really?
@@dominicchester0328 oh yea except we will be taxed like the Europeans but will get none of the benefits they get there
Great video, Very glad to see it. I learned how to ride mopeds(I like to call them scooters) 10 years ago. I strongly recommend a lot of practice, before you go out on the road. A parking lot is a good start. Don't push yourself beyond your comfort level. You will learn how to ride it, and have fun on it. You need to be aware of "counter steering." The bike will handle differently when you get up to a speed of maybe 20mph, your scoot will begin to handle like a motorcycle. There are great vid's on youtube about countersteering and stopping. I almost fell on my 2 bikes the first day I got them. Please practice. Laws very by state. Some don't require a license .Cheers.
I'm getting a moped to get back and forth to college, this was really useful
Your motor is eitheer idling too high or you're riding the brakes when you accelerate.
VelociPat that’s how they sound when you pick up speed from a stop
Nope ur wrong every moped sounds like that at least with a 50 cc
And u can tell me different cause I used a moped when I was 15 to 16 she still runs like a champ even if I don’t use her
Finally, a Virginia native that knows their stuff. Thank you sir, I needed this as I am looking into getting one of these. Now, I am a bit confused about VA DMV. Does my speedometer have to stop at max 35mph or can go faster, but I must ride at 35mph? Yours can go as high as 50mph, but say without a license, would someone with the same speedometer can only ride at 35mph or have to have speedometer showing just max of 35mph?
Not as long as it has 49ccs you'll be ok
I have a 49cc moped and it tops out about 40-45mph sl dont worry
Good video because of horrible busing and working late I'm learning to drive a moped. So far I haven't gone far but parking been the hardest part.
Ruby Leslie search up KevSoLitty for more moped vids
I’m English so this terminology could confuse you but, I will be going into college soon and I was wondering if a moped would be a good way to get to a college about 15-20 minutes away from my house
What r the requirement to drive 50cc scooter in Colorado
in Missouri all you need is a car driver license no flag no helmet no insurance no registration as long as it's under 50cc in Missouri they are concerned A motorized bicycle
I am actually thinking about getting one now thank you for making this video
i am 13 and i am thinking about getting a moped and thank you for teaching me how to drive one!
Be sure to check your state’s minimum age for driving one.
Can't wait to get mine Saturday 🤗🤗🤗
Wait so you getting one tomorrow?
+Henry Sykes No hes getting one on saturday you idiot.
Ofcourse hes getting it tomorrow can you not read?
@@JormaE lol
Me too @ 3 years later
I have this exact moped model and color! I drove it for the first time today around my apartment complex! The problems I'm having is breaking or slowing down correctly to stop or turn. I'm a little fidgety with that. What I did was gradually push up on the accelerating handle to slow down but it seems to slow down a little to fast and that's why the turns end up stopping and I have to give it a little more gas to finish the turn lol. And that's not good when I'm driving on the road with other cars. So I saw that you gradually pulled the breaks to stop and to turn? and it was both breaks? cause I had no idea until after watching this video that the right brake was the front brake and that the left break was the rear brakes. And also can mopeds do a u-turn and full cirlce turns? I found it hard to do that i ended up having to manually move the bike in the direction I wanted it lol. I have no one who rides mopeds to properly teach me. So I have to learn it myself. Or I can probably ask the guy at the motorbike place if he can volunteer if I pay him lol. But hopefully this video will solve my problem.
Been 3 years bro hope you doing good. I am going to apply for a provisional licence to drive these bad boys.
Use front brakes on tarmac :) and rear brakes in more dangerous surface(gravel for example),because if you will break too hard with front brakes in gravel,your front tire is gonna lose traction(i've experienced it).
People keep calling moped to a scooter, and here in California there’s a big difference between these two
In Arkansas, you need a drivers license (no motorcycle endorsement required) if you are 16 or older, or you can obtain a motorized bicycle license if you are 14-16. No helmet is required but you must have eye protection.
Are you sure about license needed in Arkansas for a 49cc scooter?
Really Awesome Video... Here we need license to ride a Moped.

Thanks for the video, now I feel comfortable buying a moped.
Oh for crying out loud it's just like going on a regular bike but easier
most of the people here are probably new into two wheeled vehicles if they are thinking about purchasing or interested in mopeds
+Assasinpiggles So they have never ridden a bicycle? That has wheels
And you’re point ?
Only looking at this because it’s like 7 miles to my new job which I don’t fancy walking or cycling, I’d be sweating my tits off if I cycled that to work.
The only similarity between a moped/scooter and a bike is that they both have 2 wheels.
would it be possible to drive one of these far distances?
just take brakes
sure, i have a truck,but they are a blast to ride, get a decent one, and get the helmet trunk for the back
Get a water cooled one and your be okay
50cc,is slow uphill , very easy to ride ,but you must stay away from fast traffic.i,am always out on mine.😮
Possible? Yes.
Comfortable? No.
thanks for the video. I appreciate the detail. I am considering getting a 50cc and this is invaluable to get your lesson

Where did you buy it for 550$?

Don't know why, but I've watches this video about 4 time.
I ride gsx1000r and I'm just looking at this like pathetic
Woah my dude, save some pussy for the rest of us, Jesus Christ
what is the top speed? if it is 30 i will be happy :)
Ok.
Lucas K it is
some states are really restrictive on the top speed, they come from the factory with restrictors, if you are in a state that doesn't pay much attention, there are excellent videos on how to remove the restrictors , it's pretty easy and makes a huge difference, 50 cc engines can generate a decent amount of horsepower depending on compression etc. Plus the carburetor models have all kinds of tricks
60mph is common
Great video the helped me a lot! At first I wasn't the greatest then I found this video and really helped me out!
I'm buying this exact model brand new in a few days and I live in Virginia! Will be my first vehicle ever I'm so excited
Did u get it yet and how is it
I have a moped but I am only allowed to ride it outside of traffic
Great video, I’m getting the same one tomorrow!
Thank you dude, i just got my 50cc and i love it.Its much easier than bicycle.
Do not get a piece of shit like this tao tao I have a 50cc saga deluxe that has only 80km so far because it has only gotten me to and from school and that means the engine isnt near as broken in as it good be. Knowing this you would think well then it gets crappy mileage but in fact in spend $5 on premium gas and it gets me up too 200km in the summer, this means that I spend $5 every two weeks just to get to school. That is amazing for a motor vehicle. My moped cost me $1500 brand new and works like a charm.
Nice bike! Good to see another moped motovloger.
F that shit, When i Got my moped i just hopped on and went for it.
Thanks for the video, getting a moped soon!

I just bought an x-pro Maui 50cc today. 4 to and from work and errands around town within the city limits. Top speed roads about 40 miles an hour around here. The one thing I'm wondering is if it will really go 35 miles an hour or if it's going to be 25 I have an e scooter a monthly subscription for that I'm going to send back once I get it that goes up to 28. So we'll see
Im from virginia too, im just watching this because i want to be prepared.

Good job man explained well I would have explained it very similar I've only ridden one 3 times but I'm pretty good it kinda came as 2nd nature and no one thought me any thing was scared a tad at first but now thinking of buying my self a moped as well now
That’s epic bro and it looks really nice 👍🏼
I want to buy 1. Thanks for posting this.
I’m 13 turning 14 tomorrow. I want to be able to get to school in a fast, efficient way that will suit my needs. Is this a good investment for my age? Thanks for the video!
Check your local laws regarding mopeds, I know they can range from 14-18 as the minimum age! You might also have to pay registration fees, taxes and insurance so be sure to account for those. I am not sure what state you live in, but that would be a good start to check the laws! Then, dropping a few hundred bucks will get you a rather cheap and reliable source of transportation!
Evan Stone Productions Thank you! This was very informative! I will be sure to take this into account. :)
If you own a moped and you're a petrol head and you know alot about cars/motorsport you have nothing to loose. I drive myself
Nice video, I'm thinking of buying one of these soon.
Great video
I live in the Netherlands and planning to buy one for myself
You should. They are really fun.
Great comments during the vid. Drive safe!
This was extremely useful! Now I just have to research my State Laws.
Good Tutorial and even better advice👍🏻
Great tips. Thank you. I'm considering getting one.
thank you for the video, correction - in some states US, you do have to have a liscence for ANY motorized vehicle on a public road.
It's not classified as a motorized vehicle. They usually fall under the same laws as motorized bicycles instead.
I want one of these babies getting one Friday
Im 15 and im getting one im so excited
Nice video dude. I did learn much from it😄
I'm from Florida and for whatever reason when I've driven in other states I've noticed I'm a much more aggressive driver than other people. However when I'm back home in South Florida everyone drives like I do. I guess aggression is Florida Trait
Something none of these videos go over is what the start position for your hand on the throttle is. That's one of the things I need to know. After driving a car for years my foot knows where to be before I push the accelerator. I have no idea how my hand should be placed before I begin to turn the throttle.
How would you say these things handle themselves going over grooved railroad tracks
Very good video man, thank for the upload
I drive a honda cf50 chaly '81 (greece) REALLY HARD bike to drive took a while to learn how to clutch kick and not wheelie but is a good and reliable bike once you get the hang of it (converted from 50cc to 75cc)
I’m really regretting getting a mini bike and not this the mini bike was $500 but not street legal this looks much cooler
In New York a 50CC is the only one that you don't need Motorcycle License for. However you need to be 16 with a drivers License, Registered with the DMV ( you get a plate with the reg) and Insurance.
of course a DOT helmet
I knew the target on your back thing but completely forgot a obout manhole covers. Thanks.
I don't recommend getting a Tao Tao, get Sunny, Saga or if you are willing to throw down around $2,000 get a Honda. I own a Sunny MC D50TKA, it's a trike 50cc with two wheels in the front and I've had it for years.
Never heard of those, I'll stick with known brands lol
you do need a regular D driver's license in various states. I'm Az I have to have it. Also I took my tank classic moped 49cc on an 11 hour ride gas is still in the tank. I went through mountains today and just got back. make sure you always Chuck oil and gas and your lights and turn light signals.
