Get a Piaggio, gilera or aprillia ped mate. I would say a gilera runner as they are comfortable and when derestricted they will do about 45mph.
Also they use piaggio(they are the same company as piaggio) engines which are really easy to tune so if you add a sports exhaust and a 70cc kit, you can reach about 60mph real speed.
Have a look at the forums on
http://www.scootershack.co.uk. there is a lot of moped owners on there.

@the one that said cool but stupid,get a 9999mph bike,and then run it on full speed on a bridge...You're sure to reach the sun or the moon depending whether it'd day or night,though going to the sun would cost too much time..

Gilera Runner, please. Sweet sc. Very driveable...
I had ac Gilera Stalker that did 120km/h. Believe it or not. So, Gilera...
Malossi and Polini are the houses for the tuning parts, but I wouldn't recommend it. I had crankshaft replaced, along with racing bearings, variator, 1st set of gears, belt, carburator DellOrto 21mm, Polini Racing kit, racing clutch, racing brake pads, Arrow exhaust.... Trust me, there is no end to it...
BTW, it pissed on tuned SR50
