Keeping the tires on the Velocity Moped is crucial in maintaining safe, reliable transport. Check the inflation of the tires every 300 miles or earlier. Maintain the pressure which is printed on the tire, and on the moped under the seat. Under inflation can cause skidding, slower reaction, and reduced mileage, while over inflation raises the probability of a blowout. Check the tread while checking the inflation as well. Use the "penny test" on the tread. Put a penny in between the tire tread head down, if you can see Abe's head, its time for a replacement.
The Velocity Moped is equipped with a gas gauge, which should be kept out of the red area. Check the oil in the engine monthly. Mopeds are always at risk of having water seep into the oil tank since their parts are exposed to the weather. Use the mini dip stick on the left side of the engine to check the oil, and change the oil if you notice any white blotches.
The electrical start up system of the Velocity Moped is dependent on the battery. As most mopeds are ridden seasonally, it is best not to let the battery sit inside the bike during its stationary periods. The battery can be accessed under the seat, and taken out by disconnecting the contacts. Do this to increase the battery life, and save the bike's electrical system from constant current. If the battery should die, take it to a garage to have it charged. Never try to jump a moped battery with another vehicle.
