Hi All

Can anybody please help me My towing outfit is a subaru Forester S Turbo and i tow my 2001 Eldiss Typhoon GT 4 birth caravan.

I am now looking into purchasing a 125cc lightweight moped and would also like to be able to take this away so i dont keep having to use the car.

Heres the problem i am looking for something that can possibly go onto my car rear so i can carry it, I normally have 3 mountain bikes on the rear with a Halfords 3 cycle rear carrier but can find anything on the web about this.

Wonder if anybody knows how to get this to work Look forward to your replies

i dont think the moped will manage to tow your van lol

Agreed.  You can't carry the moped on a rear mounted carrier. Check the noseweights to be sure, but it's notreally possible.

 afraid there not called mopeds anymore, they used to be "motorised pedal cycles"

hence mopeds, with pedals.

now they are motorcycles or scooters, cirtainly a 125 would be too heavy to mount on the back, maybe your only option would be something like a monkey bike to put inside the car.

Thanks for all your replies

I have considered a battery bike however would like a 125cc Scooter so the Mrs and I can both hit the open road so to speak

you could always buy her a skateboard and a length of rope and tie it to the bike Ha Ha   

there is no mention of the Di Blasi being road legal!
