What is a 50 moped?

The term ’50 moped’ is used to describe a moped with a 50cc engine. 50cc means 50 Cubic Centimetres; the most common solution used for measuring the engine size of a moped/scooter. With the help of a 50cc engine, you can get a vehicle that is capable of moving at fast speeds and delivering what you wanted in terms of pace.

However, a 50cc moped is quite limited in terms of what it can and cannot do. We’ll break that down for you as you read through this guide. This will help you to work out if you should go for one of our 50cc mopeds or go for a larger 125cc moped.

What can you afford to pay?

At Direct Bikes, we always look to keep the price as affordable as we can. Factor in delivery, insurance, and road tax, and you will likely exceed £1,000 – not by much, though!

The first thing to work out is what you want to pay for your moped. For the most part, a moped should cost you around £959 to £1,200 if you are buying brand new. If you choose to buy from Direct Bikes, you might choose to invest in one of their models. It just depends on what else you need to get for your scooter. We can walk you through the full cost of your 50cc moped, though, so you know exactly what you are buying.

We sell a whole host of new and high quality models that you could pick up with ease and start using today. We also sell a whole host of products which are available on their extensive scooter finance program. So, if up-front affordability is an issue, use this to help. We can help you borrow as much as £5,000, so you could buy more than one moped at once and split the cost over a 60-month period!

What can you afford to pay in running costs?

Before you jump in with both feet to buy the 50 moped of your choice, though, consider running costs. At Direct Bikes, we have broken down the mileage for everything that we sell. Be sure to check out the specifications for every scooter so that you know exactly what your mileage would be. One of the most important factors in buying a moped is making sure you buy something at a price you can afford. This is not just the cost of ownership, but the cost to run your moped as well!

This means investing your time and money appropriately. It means making sure you buy something that can give you solid fuel economy. Typically, 100 miles per gallon of petrol is considered good for a 50cc moped. All of our mopeds can offer you 100mpg, if not more.

What speeds do I need to do?

The next part of our discussion would revolve around speed. For the most part, your average 50cc moped from Direct Bikesis going to run at speeds of 30mph. Thanks to the Automatic transmission of a 50cc moped from Direct Bikes, you can easily drive without needing gears. This means you just need to focus on what is in front of you on the road!

So, our 50cc mopeds are designed to give you the speed that you would have need for residential riding. With the right experience, though, you could easily handle a 50 moped from Direct Bikes on any stretch of road in the UK! 

What about insurance?

Going back to money for a minute, keep in mind that you will have to get scooter insurance. We can help you with this in any way that you might need; just let us know what kind of insurance you need and we can do it. You will be happy to know, though, that insurance can be very cheap when it comes to driving a 50cc moped. They tend to be very affordable as they are so eco-friendly and reliable. With that in mind, you should look to get insurance through your vendor.

What should I do then?

If your driving has to be taken outside of your home city, then you should be looking to buy more than a 50cc moped. At Direct Bikes, we’ve got some great 125cc scooter that might be more suitable to riding further afield. For most inner city rides and normal day-to-day trips, though, our 50cc mopeds should be more than suitable for you!

If you need any help in making a choice about the moped that you would like to drive, then you need only contact us today. We can then look through the whole process with you, ensuring you buy a suitable moped. Just let us know what you think would be most suitable to you, and we can help you to choose. It’s all about making an informed decision when buying a vehicle. So, if you need any help at all in deciding, let us know!

The Direct Bikes team is here to help you with every part of the decision making process.
