No, if you are 16 or older you just have to take a written test for a moped license. You do not need a driver's license though. **Michigan requires that ages 15 to 19 wear motorcycle helmets by law** at age 15 you are required to apply for a moped license...if your over 16 you can use your drivers license and do not need a moped license, under 15yrs old you would need a moped license no testing is required above 19yrs old but you do need a regular drivers license, in 2007 Michigan changed the law requiring ALL 50cc or lower displacement to be registered as a moped. It use to be all 49cc and under require it, and a 50cc was a motorcycle... Michigan raised it to 50cc instead.
That is a matter of personal opinion and is also influenced to some extent on the use you intend for it. If you like to go off road then a Trails or Enduro Moped would be best. If you care more about speed then a Sports moped would suit you best and for economy a commuter moped or scooter.

That depends on your moped. Most mopeds madein the 80's are two stroke engines. Which do not use oil in the crank case. the oil is mixed in with the fuel.
quaker state motor oil
20W-50
I NEVER USE A MULTI GRADE OIL I USE A STRAIGHT 30 WEIGHT DETERGENT
The grade of oil your vehicle uses is determined by what geographical area you live in. The colder the weather the thinner the oil. The warmer it gets the thicker the oil. Most vehicles use 10-w40 grade Motor oil. Your handbook will have the specific grade that your car needs to use.
The gas-oil mixture ratio on a 2005 powermax 50cc scooter is usually about 5% in the ratio of 20:1. For the tuned scooters they use 3% on the ratio of 32:1.Ê
I use what the vehicle manufacturer calls for.
No, use exactly what is recommended by the manufacture.
Use any 10 - 40 W oil. You can also use a single grade 40 W oil if the mower is old and much used.
