Verkhovyna 7 Sport – the “coolest” Lviv moped for Soviet boys

Mopeds in the late USSR were mainly represented by two factories – Lviv and Riga. Some were considered worse, others better, but the latter were less common on sale. Firstly, they were quickly taken apart. Secondly, the Riga factory produced significantly fewer mopeds than there were people willing to buy them. There was no escape from the planned economy, that’s how it worked then. Among Lviv mopeds, there were also leaders. Such as, for example, the Verkhovyna 7 Sport. This unit, once desired by almost all Soviet boys, will be discussed on the channel “CHUDOTEKHNIKI with Georgy Belov”.

Now, when teenagers from the USSR have grown up and become heavier, the standard Verkhovina does not want to accelerate under them over 40 km/h, and does not pull uphill at all. Previously, against the background of bicycles, the moped seemed almost by motorcycle. But the "Sport" modification is not only externally made in the image and likeness of motocross models. It also went faster. For example, it can accelerate an adult man weighing almost 90 kg to 55 km / h. The blogger tried it - the collectible equipment could not withstand it, it broke. Now it will have to be repaired, while telling the story. Who knows, maybe the owner will listen and buy spare parts with his own money ...
