I hope this passes them maybe I can get my stolen scooter back and the police will have
less problems in finding stolen ones.

My question - Luke, how do you call a Morpheus a scooter - it Maryland it would be classified as a Motorcycle -

"Motor Scooter" means a non-pedal vehicle that:
1.Has a seat for the operator.
2.Has 2 wheels, of which one is 10 inches or more in diameter;
3.Has a step through chassis;
4.Has a motor, (i) With a rating of 2.7 brake horsepower or less; or (ii) If the motor is an internal combustion engine, with a capacity of 50 cubic centimeters piston displacement or less; and
5.Is equipped with an automatic transmission. "Motor Scooter" does not include a vehicle that has been manufactured for off road use, including a motorcycle and all terrain vehicles.

Note: For special or unusual circumstances, the work can be processed at any full service MVA office.

Motor scooters that are built for road use and have greater horsepower and cc's may be titled and registered as a motorcycle. Note: A person may not operate a motorcycle that has a rating of 1.5 brake horsepower or less or a capacity of less than 70 cubic centimeters piston displacement, on a roadway where the posted maximum speed is more than 50 miles per hour, or on an expressway or other controlled access highway.

I am another lone rider here in western Maryland. I enjoy it as I can ride as slow as I want on the country roads, around the lake and take in my other fun past time of taking pics of trains. Stop and eat\drink when and where I want. Not many people around here ride small scooters and the ones that do don't like riding in the country.

whats wrong with the cheap scooters? I have a little Sunny 139qmb 50 cc scooter that I ride daily and am not afraid to ride 100 miles on it daily. I take care of it and do regular maintenance on it. It now has 5500 miles on it and runs just as good as it did when I bought it. I am 60 years old, and I use it for every little thing that I need to do around town or just to get on and ride and pass time since I am retired. I do not understand why everyone is so concerned about speed. 35 mph is great for me as I get to see things I don't normally see at 55+. I am retired and cannot afford the 2000+ for the scooters you all talk about and I am really happy with my little 800 scooter. (( Yes it is a scooter according to Maryland, anything bigger is classified as a motor cycle here )). I get 100 mpg and its a blast on the bike trails where I can ride in comfort and without fear of the idiots driving cars.

Millsc, thank you for the links, those prices are within my budget so that looks good.

Can I still use the stock carb, even with the new jets? or should I go ahead and go to a performance carb and air filter?

Ally, I pulled the head off and their was a big hole in the piston, but I did find my straw, lol.
