Re: mopeds you ride (pics please)
Why are you so fixated with the scooter being called a moped? It'll be ok, trust me. And people have asked me about my "Spree" but really it's an "Elite" . I just correct them but don't get all * .toad772 wrote:Do you people even know what a god d*** moped is I only saw 2 mopeds and they where the trac and the tomos on page 24 could be more cause I skipped a lot of pages but everyone is posting scooters in a moped thread(I know the op meant scooter when he said moped).

What is considered a moped?

Michigan law defines a moped as a two or three-wheel vehicle which meets ALL of the following limitations:
Top speed is no more than 30 mph on level surface
Engine size is 50 cc or less
No manual gearshift
2.0 or less rear brake horsepower (measure of horsepower at the rear wheel)
Vehicles meeting this definition are classified as a moped and are registered with a 3-year moped decal for $15. Vehicles exceeding any of the characteristics listed above are classified as motorcycles
I am from michigan so this is what a moped IS here.
Even wiki defines a moped in this way.
Mopeds are a type of low-powered motorcycle designed to provide economical and relatively safe transport with minimal licensing requirements. Mopeds were once all equipped with bicycle-like pedals (the source of the term, motor-pedal), but moped has been increasingly applied by governments to vehicles without pedals, based on their restricted engine displacement, speed, and/or power output. Mopeds occasionally resemble powered bicycles, but most are now step-through designs (of both kinds, having either large or small wheels) and step-over designs similar to a regular motorcycle.

Re: mopeds you ride (pics please)
"Moped" means a motorized device designed to travel with not more than three sixteen-inch or larger diameter wheels in contact with the ground, having fully operative pedals for propulsion by human power, and an electric or a liquid fuel motor with a cylinder displacement not exceeding fifty cubic centimeters which produces no more than two gross brake horsepower (developed by a prime mover, as measured by a brake applied to the driving shaft) that is capable of propelling the device at not more than thirty miles per hour on level ground.

You have titles and insurance for your scooters too, don't you?
Just don't get confused, or try to correct me, when I call my scooter a moped.

Re: mopeds you ride (pics please)
It ain't all that bad. A "Scooter" is defined as less than 50 cc and capable of less than 30 mph. You transfer the title, get your registration, put your plate on it and ride. No motorcycle endorsement required and no insurance, but the no insurance thing applies to all motorcycles here, go figure.Trafficjamz wrote:That really sucks.zuphilius wrote:In Washington state, they have to have pedals.

Same here. so if your pedals are broke you can't get it registered and it also must have a automatic clutch.zuphilius wrote:In Washington state, they have to have pedals.

Re: mopeds you ride (pics please)
scooters are without pedals, mopeds are with pedals. Scooters must be in a 45mph area or less, along with mopeds. only diff here that sets them apart is pedals and titles. my scooter was registered as a Motor driven cycle. not motorcycle. figure that one out. lol cost 9 bucks a year to have a plate.

Re: mopeds you ride (pics please)
There are several scooters that can go much faster than 45mph.mustangwagz wrote:scooters are without pedals, mopeds are with pedals.

Re: mopeds you ride (pics please)
I consider my scooters just that, scooters. But I also have a Puch, and am into mopeds. But it doesn't really matter to me what people call them, its just a personal preference to me.
