Produktbeschreibung

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Yamaha QT50 Yamahopper is a moped produced by the Yamaha Motor Company from 1979 through 1992. The 50 in the name is derived from the 50cc engine displacement. QT50s were popular in the late 1970s and 1980s because of their ease of use and maintenance, extreme fuel efficiency, and legality in most U.S. states among pre-driving-age teenagers. QT50s and other mopeds are enjoying a resurgence in popularity due to their fuel efficiency and nostalgic appeal. The QT50 and the similar Honda Express share a skeletal, almost insect-like appearance. The Yamahopper is not really a scooter, as the QT50 has no fairing, sports footpegs rather than footboards, and its two-stroke reed valve engine is slung beneath the monotube frame motorcycle-style. The QT50 closely resembles contemporary mopeds, but without the bicycle pedals typical to the class, leading some to refer to such vehicles as "nopeds." The Yamahopper has an approximate top speed of 25 mph in stock form, and thus can be used for city driving.
