so in Frank Auton's golden eagle site he talks about all the hurdles to getting your motor type approved, plated and insured in the UK.

one of the things he mentioned is that you have to be below 1kw to come under the low powered moped category and above this it is impossibly hard. this is not possible for us 50cc engines nor would we want it.
however we could fake it. i learnt that if you alter the fuel mix you can alter the performance of your engine to below 1kw. when i first ran my bike i used not enough oil and it was very slow. we could use this in the dynamometer test to fake a low power 1kw engine. we could stamp a "1." in front of where it says 2hp on the engine stamp.
then we could get the certificate ?
