What do you not like about UNC

danny - depends on your state. In Texas, greater than 49cc requires license plate (I phrased it wrong in my previous post). I think in NC the rule is greater than 50cc. My d’s Vespa is a 50cc version…technically I think she could have removed the plate and parked without a permit. But, we felt having the plate on and the scooter registered with Campus Safety was an additional measure against theft. Also, our insurance required the plate.

But, with or without a plate should not matter…freshmen can get motorcycle permits. Just call ahead of time and verify…and find out exactly what paperwork you will need to bring to the permit office.

I think scooters are really starting to catch on at UNC. My d tells me each semester there seems to be more students with scooters showing up. I even think there is a Vespa gang facebook group…lol!
