False premise...………..`performance forum' means nothing. TRUE mopeds are slow and GREAT on mpgs.
Just because a brand has a lot of people trying to make them faster means nothing.
Italian mopeds never will take a backseat to ONE BRAND or MODEL of Puch.
Get over yourselves...………...for dependability I'll take the Minarelli or M1 Morini over any Puch engine. They are engines that just keep going and going.
