just wondering how these things respond to performance work with the hard tail and such.
this thing is going to be so badass

Hard tail isn't going to affect how it responds to performance work.
The hard tail does
-make it ride like crap
-make it weigh slightly less than other Maxis
-make it desirable to the trend hoppers on this forum
99% of Puch threads in this section will apply to your bike, so check them out.
i actually know it's the standard maxi style frame and engine (E50)
i was asking more along the lines of how the hard tail takes turning at higher speeds. i know the increased stiffness will make it lose a lot of rear wheel traction. i guess i was wondering about safety concerns.
if i was worried about ride comfortability i would ride around in my gas wasting car. or take the bus... but seriously... mopeds.
hard tail does actually have performance benefits, as less of the engine's power is soaked up by the rear suspension.
more info on a hard tail
-they don't really ride like crap
-weighs quite a bit less than a maxi (if you leave off the fender and rack
-makes it rare and desirable, despite trends or hoppers of said trends.
as it is a puch with a puch motor of some sort, there is much that you can do to it. use the search function and you will find plenty of info.
most of my hard tail moped experience comes from riding ciaos, some capable of high speeds. i've never had any problems in corners, and while i'm no elliot, i don't get shy in the twisties.
who's this elliot?
creature kid who rides a rigid moby around corers faster than you
Elliot's usually the person in front of you, making you breath in his exhaust fumes.

haha considering i just bought haven't rebuilt the thing and haven't been able to ride it, that's no large feat.
rigids FTW!
