Nice, I noticed right away cars notice me more with the plate on there, I'm not sure why but they tend to "generally" give me a little more of the road, at least around here.My moped plate showed up in the mail today after waiting for 6 weeks.
The moped plate is 4"x7" the same size as a CA. M/C plate
This is what it would look like on my Whizzer and I have the perfect spot for it, in my saddle bag
I had no problem registering my bike as a moped in Cal. A big advantage of having the plate is I can legally ride in the traffic lanes or the bike lane. With the required lights and horn, and wearing a helmet, I've never been stopped or questioned.
Update: I never received a renewal form for my registration, so I called and was told they don't send one for mopeds. Mine was actually expired at this point but I discovered you can renew online. And for multiple years if you want. I renewed for two years at a cost of $81 and change (ouch). $30 of that is tax. So my stickers should arrive in the mail. Oh, and you can sign up for reminders too. It's a rip-off, but since I don't have car inspection or emissions where I live, I guess I still come out ahead. BTW, state is Ohio.
I think I will just stay right here in Alamogordo, NM. where these bikes are not considered mopeds or motorcycles...lol...No reg, no insurance, no DL, no title required...lol...DAMIEN
A moped is not registered in my state. Anything larger than 50cc is called a motorcycle and must be registered. 50cc and under 2 hp and you must be 14 years of age or older to ride one on the street, and you must have a flashing front and back light. The transmission has to be fully automatic or a single speed. They will however let shifter bikes slide because they require the pedals to actually start the engine. If they were separated from each other, they wouldn't allow it in court. Cops most likely don't care. They know we all ride 66cc here and they leave us alone unless they just like your bike and want to see it, or you are being a douche canoe. They even let you ride down sidewalks as long as you aren't travel to fast and give way to people walking. Pretty good laws here about mopeds, could be better, but I'm happy I can even do this hobby. I love it!!!
what county? because I went into a Prebble County BMV, they had no idea, made some calls. they then said I had to call the local PD, have them do an inspection, then hope they ok it to get a VIN. Then they may be able to help me.
Here is the information that you requested...Good luck.
