If you are even thinking about building a moped in the State of California the 1st step should be sending out for your plates.
On June 2, 2009 I mailed a completed moped plate form along with the correct dollar amount to Sacramento and still haven't received anything yet.
I just got off of the phone with them (September 16, 2009) and they said that it cleared last week and I should receive it in approximately 2 weeks.
Longer than 3 months, lol.

print out form 230 from DMV website under Vin I put teh vin # of my bike then to make the vin 17 #s like a car i put the name of my bike to fill in the rest so i looked like CRANBR###########. I have a Huffy Cranbrooke.
Engine # i just put the spark plug product #
Make was HUFFY
Fill out the rest and mail in with $19. ( this was in 2009)
Wait 3 weeks and you get it.
My registration papers says it is a motorized bicycle but under body type it has the code MP (moped?) and says it is a moped under type vehicle use.
heard it can take a few tries
Good Luck
