I just bought a moped and I don't even know what kind it is.

http://www.saferwholesale.com/product-p/50cc%20italia%20touring.htm

That is the website that shows it.

What performance parts can I buy for it that will make it go faster? Please help!

  1. change sprockets


  2. That a scooter.

    many mopeds and scooter have restriction plates to conform to local low.  It just matter of disconnecting the carb, removing the metal plate and then putting the carb back in (using new gasket).  And you may get about 5 to 10 MPH more (or sometimes even more).

    Good Luck...

  3. lose weight , face it down hill and hope the winds on your back

  4. You could add extra air to the tires for less rolling resistance, or if the bike has it, remove the baffle from the exhaust.  You can contact the dealership or manufacturer to see if there is a rev-limiter that you can bypass.  They are typically built into the CDI.  Also, if the transmission is a CVT, there might be a removeable bushing in the primary clutch that allows greater expansion of the belt.  Its only a 50cc, so don't expect too much.  Hope this helps you out!

  5. the only way to make a scooter really faster is to put it in the back of a truck. sorry. you could really spend hundreds of dollars and maybe get the thing to go only a few miles per hour faster.

  6. Find a big hill.

  7. It is an air-cooled 4-stroke 50cc engine making a claimed 6bhp it is unlikely to produce much more power than it already does (and 45mph is wildly optimistic). The cheapest thing you can do is lose weight from the bike, you probably can replace exhausts and rejet the carbs but you are then spending a lot of money for minor increases.

    Remember that by increasing the top speed you also need brakes to stop they might well be overwhelmed by a faster speed.

    Since the website studiously avoids mentioning it, I suspect that it is Chinese, this isn't necessarily the worst thing in the world, but they are built to a budget using old technology, they simply aren't built for speed (or to last).
