KZ, I know that what you suggest is true as many buy the 49cc scoots so they don't have to comply with certain laws. I have a problem with those laws that say that when a scooter engine size is increased they can now do whatever like registrations, etc.
What gives them the right to make or even enforce these laws when the scooter was manufactured as a 49cc in compliance with fed laws. I see no difference than when someone swaps out a 4 cyl in a car for v8 or adds components like a turbo or blower for more power. Or big wheels on a car not originally equipped. Aren't they both the same?
If they enforce said laws, shouldn't the car owner that did the changes be required to get a new emissions and safety certifications, especially when the vehicle doesn't have enough stopping power?
