Due to emerging safety concerns that resulted from the considerably greater speeds that newer mopeds were capable of reaching, western jurisdictions introduced new regulations (eg UK in 1977)[http://www.classicbikepictures.co.uk/c319/p2117/yamaha%C2%A0fs1e.html Yamaha FS1E Classic Bike Pictures], limiting the speed of these "mopeds" to <ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">30mph </ins>(and abolishing the requirement for pedals). In some cases, the power restrictions (such as perforated plates in the inlet tract) were primitive and easy to bypass,{{opinion}} but the larger manufacturers such as those from Japan restricted engine breathing with smaller carburetors (eg 16mm replaced with 13mm) and modifications to cylinder ports and exhausts. Then they fitted [[CDI]] ignition systems tuned to limit maximum engine revolutions; the [[Honda MT50|Honda MT/MB50]] was built to run to 10,000&nbsp;rpm, but the combined restrictions cause it to run out at around 6,500&nbsp;rpm. Illegal de-restriction of such models is extremely difficult, requiring replacement of piston, barrel, carburetor and CDI electrics, and possibly the crankshaft and the exhaust as well.</div></td></tr>
