I see the argument for our beloved 2 stroke HT's but if green is our ultimate goal then lets consider a catalyzed 49 or 70cc Lifan engine. It would probably be easier to get tagged as a special construction motorcycle and sidestep all the legal mumbo jumbo for mopeds. The engines are completely reliable and have been used in Asia for almost 50 years. A little re jetting and a catalyzed exhaust and we have a 50 MPH /100 MPG motor-bicycle that is clean running and still a really inexpensive way to get about. It would also take off our restrictions for speed and allow us to run headlights, turnsignals and a HORN for the cagers that are too busy texting to pay attention.. IMHO
