    Are imported peds quicker than non imports?
    As my mate has a completly standard Aerox and is quick as fuck.
    We de-restricted it at the variator and it went slower lolololol so we put the washer back in, and looks like it has already had the pipe de-restricted.
    We dont know if it is a import but was just wandering as this thing beats most runner 50's with lighter rollers and pipes etc.

    well if the scooter is built in a factory in england, then by our crappy laws it HAS to be restricted to 30mph, but im sure the likes of rox's, piggys and the rest when bought into the country, all have restrictors put in because england is the only country that i know of that wont let a 16yr old travel over 30mph on a moped.
    so i suppose if a scooter has been bought in another country by a private buyer(maybe even in bulk) that theres a good chance that they are not restricted.
    Correct me if im wrong but when the scooters are produced abroad and are destined for england, they put the stricters in over there

    Yamaha peds come from france.

    Restricted to 28mph.

    If you de rez them you need to change the rollers (they wear after 2000KM anyway LOLOLOLOLOL) and upjet the carb.

    ^^ Or ideally change to a 17.5mm carb as gillys, piggys etc all run. My stock ped runs a 90 jet (think it was derezzed new cause it had a 93 when i checked it, and i doubt a 70 year old faffed about with it) so upjetting is mad.
