not that i know of but you have to wear a proper motorbike helmet.And its motor must be under 33cc. But you dont need a motorbiuke licence to use one.

best thing is to check what YOUR local state laws are.. its no good relying on information from others if they are in a different state to you..

I wonder how i would go putting an oversized elec. motor on one of them old people 4 wheel carts... like what jono's pop has...(do youz recall the video?)
