Hello All,
I was wondering how many members live here in NC? And what sort of reaction you have had from law enforcement?
The only thing I can find online is the basic moped law which seems to require DOT approval. Is there such a thing as a DOT approved motor bicycle?
I don't think we have a "motor assisted bicycle" law...
TIA! Bill KU4QB xct2
 
you will find that you are under the moped law ,,,, at the moment a dot helmet is all that is required.. and that you be under 50 cc which they all are
 
Outer Banks, NC

Law enforcement doesn't bother with motorbikes in most areas. The majority in my area are under 50 CC including a few scooters.

Wear a helmet, and stay under 50 CC and you will be good to go.

I own a lot of Whizzers but they are titled as motorcycles and have plates.

Have fun,

Thanks guys!
That's about what I figured (there are a LOT of 150cc scooters around here, unregistered, and nobody bothers them but I like to be legal (less hassles)).
Quenton, where are you on the Outer Banks? I like to go camping in my popup and a MB friendly area would be nice. ;-}
Best Regards! Bill KU4QB
p.s. Is there such a thing as a DOT approved bicycle helmet? My 3/4 MC helmet seems to weigh as much as my bike..duh.
