In N.Y., it all depends on who you get and the attitude they have at the time. I’ve sucessfully registered many mopeds as "class C" bike with the help of some nice middle-aged ladies. However,I was totally shut down last time however by a Trekkie wearing his official Starfleet pin who said "I can see we’re going to have a problem" as I produced a rubbing of the serial number. His next statement was " Snark- what do you do, make these names up?"
