Default Removing crank adding foot pegs

Has anyone tried this I ordered a new 80cc jet black slant engine from zoombicycles and I plan on having a pull start and centrifugal clutch along with the kit and maybe an expansion chamber on a beach cruiser. If anyone can give me advice on removing the cranks and just using auto clutch and pull start, the pedals aren't to comfy for long rides any advice would be great oh yes and would this considered as a motorcycle???

If you remove the pedals it's no longer a Moped. It depends on your local police and laws. As far as I know no pedals equals it has to be licensed almost everywhere.

even if i keep the speed under 30 in manitoba for electric scooters you don't need license registration for it as long as its 500watt and tops out at 32kph

Just the opposite. I regularly do 300 mile trips and tried both. Pedals allow changing position, pegs don't. And a little pedalling goes a long way toward reducing cramps.
