4bhp and 5bhp
You might be able to tune one to about 10 or 11 if you're lucky.

My old Honda C50 (God bless 'er soul) was quoted at 3.5bhp. Obviously, I fitted a BOV, big exhaust and painted the wheels gold which made it up to 1000bhp (without the nitrous)

Mopeds are like fat chicks, both fun to ride, but embarrassing when your mates see you on one....

possibly did,
my nsr was a s flat st bu**ery and would only pull to 7k,
some minor cough work cogh later and it was hey presto, it would pull to the red line,
Kand where did the powerband come in..... 7K on the dot,
so first second and third it would go bezerk, fourth and fifth it was already singing so it was in the band.
mind you at 12k it was a screamer!!

True, but the chainsaw is not so good at getting you down the shops and back in the same way that a Melody takes ages to chop down a tree!
Back in 1980 i had a brand new TS50ER Suzuki. In restricted form i am sure it was 2.9BHP, unrestricted around 5bhp
