Moped Tools
Moped is the term for a type of low-powered, economical motorcycle. Moped is short for motor-pedal because all mopeds used to come equipped with pedals similar to a bicycle. Now the term is frequently applied to scooters even without pedals. There are various tools available made for moped maintenance and repair.
Tire Irons
Getting a flat or needing a new tire is inevitable. At some point, any moped owner will need a tire iron to change tires. Tire irons are generally made of steel and designed specifically so the bike doesnt get damaged during the changing process.
Flywheel Puller
These are used to replace the points and condenser on moped engines. A flywheel puller will allow you to remove the magneto flywheel without causing damage to the engine case or crank shaft. Its best to use a puller designed for your brand of moped.
Tire Pressure Gauge
If you dont properly maintain your tire pressure, you can experience a range of problems, including poor fuel consumption, tire failure, loss of control and faster tire wear. You can keep track of, and maintain, proper tire pressure with a tire pressure gauge.
Spark Plug Wrench
Over time, spark plugs will need to be replaced. You can use a spark plug wrench to remove your mopeds worn-out spark plugs and install new ones. Spark plug wrenches are generally made of steel.
Allen Wrenches
Allen wrenches are sometimes called Allen keys, hex keys or hex wrenches. They are used to drive screws and bolts with a hexagonal head socket. Allen screws and bolts are common on mopeds, and frequently youll find an Allen wrench set in moped tool kits.
