I am thinking about buying a used moped/scooter and I have never owned or driven one before. What do I need to know before a purchase one? I'm looking to buy one to get me back and forth to school and work as I live in a small college town. Do I need special license or insurance?
its a 2008 meitian scooter with 220 miles for 800 bucks, should i buy it? yes or no and why
i ride a 05 elctraglide and it is too big for the test ive been riding for 10 yrs without an accident or incident but did not pass the stupid test for michigan
I found a new 50cc scooter/moped for around 350$ that a friend is willing to sell me. I need one so I can commute around, since my college town doesnt have a mass transit system.
I live in texas and i have checked the dps site but its somewhat vague on certain points.
is anyone willing to give a step by step procedure or instructions on how to prepare for a moped? any
information would be helpful.
like what type of insurance? license? registration? where to park? do i need to take a test if my engine is 50cc? where can i go if the max speed is 35mph?
lol in response michelle, walking and biking in texas weather is no picnic, especially if its 4 miles back from walmart with 2 bags, ive tried.
if it helps i walk plenty around campus while rushing to my classes. 
I live in a downtown area where there are some hills. I've been looking for a good moped or scooter to get me to and from class and work, both about a mile away.
Should I go with electric or gas? What is the best model or company (in your opinion) to go with?
Wow. The ones people have been suggesting are rather beastly. I don't need much, and I don't want to spend much, either.

I would like to improve gas mileage on a MC-DO3B TAHITI 150cc Moped Scooter. It can go roughly 60mph+ and can get up to 80mpg but i would like to if i could improve the gas mileage even more. Any tips on tuning, new parts, or anything else that i can do to raise the mpg on my scooter. Thanks for your help
