Does anyone have a moped?
I recently got one and I'm a little unsure if mine is running correctly so I'd like to see if mine runs similar to other peoples.

Welcome to the Forums buddy, I made a thread about Mopeds not long ago. But please use the search engine in each forum criteria to check if your subject has been discussed before hand!
You probably didn't know that as your new to forum posting but in future you know what to do

What moped is it you bought? What makes you think it might not be running correctly?

the problem with mopeds is, especially if its a used one, the previous owners get them un restricted to make them go a little bit faster, and add an aftermarket end can to make it noisier and to allow easier airflow.
Now...a 49cc moped isnt designed to do more than 30mph, perhaps you can squeeze a few extra mph out of it, but i would guess if its been modified, it may well be in need of carbs re setting/jetting, timing adjusted valve clearances need re setting, any number of these problems can happen on a standard engine or an unrestricted one, if the bike has been left standing you could have sediment in the float bowl, unleaded fuel does that when not used, then muck gets into the carbs, then its usually a removal and blow out with an airline.
What are your symptons though, i bet some of the above has covered it
