Kreidler Florett RS

Kreidler Florett RS was a German moped of Kreidler's Metall- und Drahtwerke G.m.b.H. in Kornwestheim near Stuttgart (Germany), of which 125,000 pieces have been built between 1967 and 1981.[1] The mark Florett RS was the fastest of Kreidler and in comparison to Hercules K 50 and Zündapp KS 50 an equally good choice.

Specifications

Small motorcycles with up to 50 cm³ capacity were exempt from taxes and licence plates and could be driven with a Class 4 driving licence with a minimum age of 16 years. To stop the competitive spiral, the three leading manufactureres Kreidler, Hercules and Zündapp agreed 1970 to a voluntary limitation of the 50-cm³ class to 6,25 PS and a gearbox with a maximum of 5 gears.[2]

gollark: I would mine things, but the fans would be loud and I don't want to contribute to a deranged zero sum (negative sum really) mess.
gollark: If I remember right they now use proof of work based on executing randomly generated programs.
gollark: You can run any quantum computing stuff on a regular computer. It just might be unusably slow.
gollark: This is done by making it so that they require large amounts of memory (I think this is mostly an issue for FPGAs though?) or basically just general purpose computation (regular CPUs are best at this) or changing the algorithm constantly so ASICs aren't economically viable.
gollark: The ASICs do that very fast. Some currencies are designed so that ASICs are impractical.
