Ask Honest John

Most recently answered mopeds questions
My son holds a full driving licence from 2005. Can he ride a 50cc moped without L-plates and without doing a CBT? Many thanks.
Would you recommend a scooter or a Honda CB125 and, if the latter, which variant would you suggest? I'd use the bike for a daily 60-mile commute which includes both motorway and central London.
I need a cheap to run petrol vehicle on a budget of £3000 which is suitable for the London ULEZ and also needs to carry a moped in the back. Rear seats are unimportant as they can be removed.
I'm thinking of getting a moped for my 16-year-old son, putting the insurance in his name so he gets a year's no claims towards his car insurance at 17. Would this work?
What's the best time of year to buy a moped?
I have bought a moped in England to use in France, where we have a house, as I could not find what I wanted out there. Should I register the bike in France and if so is that easy, or is there an alternative?...
