here in md we have to tag anything above 50cc but if i had a scoot with a 50cc vin and a 150 motor they can't say sh**

Yep the 50cc is the key thing the police look for - although the law does specify that the scooter has to have a rating of 2.7 hp or less, they'll never be able to prove that!  As long as you have the original paperwork that came with the scoot, it would all be good.

The law also does state that you can't operate the scooter at more than 30mph - but doesn't say that the scoot can't be capable of going faster...

Yeah, in Virginia, if they catch you and give you a ticket it goes against your regular driver's license...even though you are not required to have a driver's license to drive the 50cc. Isn't that weird.

..all these "50" cc scoots are engineered to run faster, and with better performance than the speed laws will allow...

It must be a pain for the manufacturers since different states have different top speeds that are legal. 

Doesn't seem like the PD worries about it much though.
