Moped Cheap

Are you looking to buy a moped cheap? Then you will be aware of just how many options you have. Buying a moped means investing your time and money into buying a vehicle totally different from a car. If you have never driven a moped before, but you have driven a car, it can feel totally alien to you. The change in road position and your closeness to other vehicles can feel quite daunting at first. That’s why at Direct Bikes we recommend that you start slow. Until you are 100% sure you are ready to ride a moped, you should start slowly.

What is a moped?

A moped is a form of transport; a form of transport that most often carries a 50cc engine. While you could go higher, most 50cc plus engines are going to be more likely to be scooters or bikes. Take the time to think about that, and it might make it easier for you to understand why the moped has become such a vital tool. Mopeds are the smallest class of road legal engine that you can realistically buy in the UK.

If you wish to go on the road, then you need something in the 50cc range to make sure you can legally drive. Mopeds tend to be anything in the 50cc to 125cc range, though some strictly stop calling a device a moped at 125cc. For a scooter, though, you could easily go as high as 750cc in terms of biking power.

Why should I buy a moped?

Buying a moped is a personal choice, but at Direct Bikes we recommend you buy a moped because:

• The price of owning a moped is very fair, as is the cost of running your moped.
• The ease of learning on a moped is much easier than learning on a faster bike.
• Getting to grips with a moped is easy because of the impressive handling quality.
• You can find that mopeds arrive in all various kinds of speeds, suiting your personality.
• You could start riding a moped from as young as age sixteen with the right license.

While many reasons exist to invest your money into a moped, we believe the above are among the soundest reasons to make your investment. It will help you to buy a moped that is going to be suited to your personal needs, and your skill level.

What is my skill level?

That’s a hard question to answer. For those who are brand new to the idea of riding a moped, we recommend starting at 50cc. 50cc mopeds are common and they come in various sizes and styles. Direct Bikes has numerous cheap moped models that you could pick from. That would help you to pick up a scooter for a fraction of the price you would normally pay for something like a car.

With prices starting at just £959, you could buy a 50cc moped without great expense. This would help you to buy a model that you know is fast enough to suit your personal needs. 50cc, for reference, should give your moped enough power to move at around 30 miles per hour of speed. It’s a big bonus for anyone who is looking to buy a bike without having to spend too much money.

Buying based on your ability

Following on from the above, if you have any kind of experience in riding a moped you might want something. While the speed cap of 30mph is great for beginners, intermediates might want something more. That’s why the ideal next step for your riding education should come from buying a 125cc scooter. You have plenty of options to look at, and we recommend that you look at every available model closely.

Every model will have its own suitability to you based on your experience. Some models are larger in size, while some are more suited to being used for sporting events and competitive riding. With a 125cc moped, you will be able to hit speeds of around 60 miles per hour. That should go a long way to making sure you can enjoy the riding experience beyond the smaller speeds that a beginner would find comfortable.
