Petrol driven bike ?????

... are these bikes with a petrol engine legal to use the uk with a petrol engine no tax insurance helmets etc.
I'd guess if the machine met the DVLA requirements for a moped (helmet, indicators, moron "in control", etc) ..........then it'd be a moped!

In the States, it's claimed by the sellers that such bikes are okay to use on the road, depending on state laws, but most of the moped engines you see in the states come from China, and are pretty dire. I see very few of these in actual working condition. I mostly see them for sale on Craigslist, probably when the owner is permitted to drive again.

Yeah but usa u can do most things we here need a licence to breath no guns, fishing rod licences, licemces and yax on everything and petrol at a ridiculous price. In Costabritain, unfortunately i never went to the usa years ago to live, sunshine beeches beechbabes. Here u freeze daily and if ur real lucky u may get two weeks watery warm sun every summer in odd days though. Usa is paradise to uk.....

I've worked in the US as a bodyguard-driver for, of all things, a midwifery practice. Many cities in the USA are so violent that even the midwives need a bodyguard and you think it's a paradise...?

Well of course u can ride anything on private land but the issue is can u use them on roads
No. It's actually a rather rubbish moped that won't confirm to the regulations.
And the word is 'you', by the way.
