Hey Ryan 14. Searching for riders in Montana and saw your post

Moped Definition
In Montana, a moped falls under the definition of a bicycle.

61-8-102 (2) (b) “Bicycle” means:
(i) a vehicle propelled solely by human ..... or
(ii) a vehicle equipped with two or three wheels, foot pedals to permit muscular propulsion, and an independent power source providing a maximum of 2 brake horsepower. If a combustion engine is used, the maximum piston or rotor displacement may not exceed 3.05 cubic inches, 50 centimeters, regardless of the number of chambers in the power source. The power source may not be capable of propelling the device, unassisted, at a speed exceeding 30 miles an hour, 48.28 kilometers an hour, on a level surface. The device must be equipped with a power drive system that functions directly or automatically only and does not require clutching or shifting by the operator after the drive system is engaged.

The law that requires titles, registration and license plates, motor vehicle insurance, requires them for motor vehicles, trailers, semitrailers, pole trailers, campers, motorboats, personal watercrafts, sailboats, and snowmobiles. It does not mention bicycles.
The law that requires a driver's license to be carried at all times [61-5-116] applies only to licensees operating motor vehicles a bicycle is not a motor vehicle [61-1-101]

In short under 50cc and under 2hp keep it under 30 mph and no registration, insurance or license required.
