Q - "HOW FAST DO MOPEDS GO?"
A - Most vintage mopeds average around 30-35 mph. With modern technology, there are many upgrades to add power and top speed while still maintaining the great fuel economy you would expect from a small-displacement engine. We have built many mopeds to reach speeds of 55 mph and faster.
