MOPED ARMY

": I just found this nicely done web page and am very surprised to find others that like mopeds. I have a 1984 Honda Express without pedals.<p>: Do you all live in large downtown areas where traffic doesn't exceed 30mph or do you just go anywhere while everyone on 4 wheels flies past you? <p>not that kalamazoo is by any means a thriving metropolis, i do live downtown and yes, the speed limit is about 30, but i get passed all the time anyways. my '79 honda pa50 is not very speedy but it hardly ever breaks down. someday i do plan on living in a bigger city and i can imagine that a moped would be pretty ideal transportation. what part of oregon do you live in?

"I live in Wilsonville (20 miles south of Portland). I just moved from Corvallis, OR which was much better for moped travel being a college town. Wilsonville is terrible. <br>Byron"

"I actually brave it out on go on the streets and major avenues that has constant traffic flowing past at 50mph. Staying far off to the right, just like a bicycle, and keeping alert are two main factors in making it. If you're careful, you can go just about anywhere. I live in suburban Los Angeles, so freeways are (of course) out of the question, but local city streets are usually safe.<p><p>_wal<p>"

"So, is riding on the shoulder illegal? I know it is for sidewalks.<br> Byron"

": I live in Delton Mi, basically a school a foodmart and a gas station that is it, the rest is all hilly rural roads leaving me to travel on average 10 miles each way wherever I go. And the only thing I ever passed was a honda spree being that the speed limit is 55 everywhere<p><br>: <br>: : I just found this nicely done web page and am very surprised to find others that like mopeds.

in washington state it is legal for a moped to ride in bike lanes (which are on the street) and shoulders, but not bike paths or trails (which are separated from the street). but as we all know, moped laws do not necessarily transfer from state to state.

I have the same problem! My 1985 Honda Spree leaks around where there are about three layers of metal. No wonder it was goin so slow! Im gonna try to get it welded or buy another one. When I pull the throttle all the way down and hold it there, the thing make a funky noise and quits on me! I found out that if you have the slightest leak in your carburator, the Spree doesnt run to its full potential. Then i bought some carb. gaskets and it doesnt do that as bad. I just need to fix the tank.
