   I suggest not to buy a Moped cause you can’t use them in the freeway or highway.

   I don’t think there is insurance. People die from mopeds and in the news they say there is no insurance for mopeds.

   Don’t worry you can also buy a car in Hawaii in any of the islands .

   I think a moped is better suited for a tourist in hawaii.

   They are so incredibly unsafe. Don’t do it.

   yah, you can use a moped for transportation. a lot of people do…i used to! i miss my pink moped…=[ yes, mopeds need insurance and registration and i honestly don’t know if you need a license because i never had one. oh, and you need a helmet. other than that you should be good. i haven’t heard of a rack for a surfboard on a moped but that could be because i don’t surf. oh, and as far as freeways go…only oahu has freeways.

   Hawaii’s got commuting like anywhere else, so I wouldn’t depend on just having a moped.

   actually YES! because it is
   very convenient in such a small
   place like Hawai’i………but
   you will stick out like a sore thumb because
   not many people from hawaii (the locals)
   drive that around.
   i know because i was born && raised on the island
   of hawaii! =]

   but you wont stick out that bad if you go to one
   of the islands like Oahu && stuff because
   those islands are the bigger less tropical
   feeling ones with the big BUILDINGS AND STUFF
