The Sporty is short for HD Sporster. Large MC, not what you are looking for.

According to CA law, a 49CC scooter is considered a SCOOTER and legally, you have less to deal with.

Above 50CC, no matter what it is called by you and me, the Scooter is a Motorcycle according to CA law and those laws apply.

As I understand it, 49CC requires no license, registration or insurance. The website I listed above can provide more info. Above 50 CC it might as well be 1400CC.

Hope that helps.
