MOPED ARMY

hey man

to qualify as a moped in missouri you need these

1. auto tranny

2. 2hp max

3. 30mph max

4. pedals (they have since omitted this one)

if you qualify as a moped these are the rules

1. no helmet required

2. no license tags required

3. no insurance required

4. working brakelight/taillight and headlight

some caveats

cops don*t know moped laws.

always carry the missouri drivers handbook with you.

there are 2 pages on mopeds in there and if you get

pulled over you whip this out and nicely point out

the requirements to the cops

Deezy, don't steal my pedz. :(

And Amodo, do you ever make it into the city? We meet every Sunday at noon in Benton Park (near Soulard). The next two weeks will be weird, because some of us are going to the rally in Kalamazoo, and the next weekend we'll either be meeting at a different place, or not meeting at all. But in 3 weeks we'll be back on schedule.

Check out our website: MopedStL.com It's still under construction, but we've got forums and a blog. woohoo!

Thanks for the info guys, now I need to fix my brakelight (taillight lights up, but when I hit the brakes, no extra light goes on... meaning, I guess I have to fix that to make it street legal? ). But I'm glad I don't need to get turn signals, that would be annoying to put on (since I don't know much about those).

And as far as Benton Park, I'd love to ride with you guys sometime, but I'll have to wait until my ped is street legal I guess, since the taillight works, but the brake light doesn't. Boo

hmmmmm, but is it legal to use hand signals for stopping instead of using my brake light?

Does anyone know if it needs to be inspected prior to driving it (the dmv had mentioned having an inspection certfies that its roadworthy)?

SWEEEET!!! ok cool, I'm going to just fix up my headlight and taillight to make sure they're cool (to have one on, the other must go off, it's messed up wiring I guess). Then I'll try to get on the road again sometime next week. Thanks guys, helped me out a lot
