Yeah, generally license and registration laws.

.... It has an overhead cam engine! But a maximum speed of 30, iirc.

And get this, they say it's a hemi!!


Sure, why not. OHC implies it's a four stroke. A lot of the 50cc class
are two stroke since you can get about twice the power even if you are
trailing a blue cloud of smoke. The 49.9cc may also work for the two
stroke bans.
