Exceed any one of those and the vehicle is legally a motorcycle in Louisiana — a different (usually higher) fee, and typically a motorcycle license, title, and insurance.
    • Louisiana publishes no moped-specific registration fee line. Sources conflict on the title fee ($18.50 vs. the standard $68.50). Confirm with Louisiana OMV before relying on a figure.
