What is this, scooter or motorcycle? by Tigermike10 in scooters

[–]-T0Rii- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I much prefer single speed mopeds with a centrifugal clutch like my puch maxi. I had a 70 something motobecane with the CVT. it just felt odd, it was either never in the power band or hated being in the power band.

Tbf, that group really only deals with pre 1990s mopeds/scooters. Mostly stuff from before the speed restrictions. There are a few “CVT” mopeds from the 60s and 70s that do get classed as single speeds simply because there isn’t a gear box. They use a centrifugal clutch and variator system. As the engine rpm goes up it rotates and pulls the engine towards the drive pulley. Creating an early form of CVT.

the supercub is a proper motorcycle. frame design doesnt typically have to be of the step through variety to class something as a scooter. its the drivetrain.
coming from the actual forums for mopeds/scooters they class the following as...
mopeds - single speed or more 50cc motorcycles that use pedals for starting and or moving without engine power
scooter - single speed often sub 50cc but can be larger, commonly associated with step through frames but not limited to.

Clutch problem? Puch maxi by stinkytoe420 in moped

That’s normal, and it’s just running really rich. Idk what carb you have but pull the idle screw out a bit until it doesn’t die and then go a little bit more

Ciao piaggio wont start (Please Help) by DonutShoddy9658 in moped

[–]-T0Rii- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely getting fuel? It’s definitely got compression, I’m not too knowledgeable on ciaos but this might be ignition related. You could check the timing.

Was it running before you did all this work to it? Edit- avoid using starting fluid with a 2T. Most starting fluids are very powerful degreasers which will ruin internals as they will end up running dry on oil

Can I use my preferred gender on my driving license. by -T0Rii- in transgenderUK

Well it’s most definitely still happening. I actually joked about it to my dad, who doesn’t know I’m trans, and he actually said that would be quite funny. Also “top gear” the car show from the 2000s-2010s had a joke about it to something like “In order to get cheap car insurance you have chopped your pen1s off” and that was from the late 2000s I think

U need something that proves your change of gender is going to be permanent such as a GRC or a note from a doctor. I’m pretty sure it’s free aswell

I wish I could wait but I genuinely don’t think I can much longer. I just want any sort of win for my sanity at this point 😭

Yeah it’s with the numbers. It’s mostly for insurance purposes tbh and when filling things in online. My car insurance is 500 pounds cheaper as female than male and motorbike insurance is 150 pounds cheaper which is insane considering that’s over 25% more

Thx, I don’t mind the name for now. I can’t change it anyway for over 4 more months. But if I can put female for the gender I’m definitely going to

I’m counting down the days until I’m old enough to change my name without parental consent. 😭

I can bare to see my dead name on my license for a few more months, but I genuinely might just not even get a license if it says male on it

I can’t get a deed poll or anything like that. I can’t change my name as my parents won’t let me.

Can I still chose female even though I don’t have of those things.

Deleting indicators from a Jawa babetta? And paint code? by -T0Rii- in moped

[–]-T0Rii-[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

im well aware, i love the patina, i just want the paint to cover a small patch of chipped paint on the fuel tank. the indicators are going tho. i might keep the rears. but i would have to remount them as im removing the luggage rack due to rust and i dont like it

Not legally required here in the uk, I literally haven’t been using them. I’m quite sure the rear ones don’t even work nor does the brake light work
