I would like to have some freedom and speed in my transportation, but I don't want the environment to pay for it. So, my real question is: How environmentally friendly are mopeds? I have heard that they get very good mileage. That is true, right? But do they make alot of emissions? I know it is 1/20th of a cars from your site, but I also heard that they produced a lot of emissions for their motor size and stuff. Do you think you could recommend a cheap moped in the US with good emissions and mileage for urban riding? Thanks a lot, Ben Vancouver, BC
