You do need a valid driver's license to operate a Honda Metropolitan motor scooter in Kansas. You do not need a motorcycle license.
Probably. To NOT have to have a motorcycle license, the bike must be 3.5 or less horsepower, have a max speed of 30 mph or less, and be fully automatic. If it does not meet any one of these stipulations, you must have a motorcycle license. Most new scooters with only 49cc engines do require a license because they exceed these specifications.
you need a license for anything besides bikes
It is important to have a license before driving a motorcycle. The penalty for driving a motorcycle without a license can be a fine to pay or a few hours in jail.
Yes, Kansas has a grandfather clause for motorcycle licenses. Individuals who held a valid motorcycle license or endorsement prior to July 1, 1999, are often exempt from certain new licensing requirements. However, those who did not have a motorcycle license before this date must meet current testing and training requirements. It's advisable for individuals to check with the Kansas Department of Revenue for specific details and updates.
When is a moped a moped, and not a motor scooter or a motorcycle? If it: * Has two or three wheels; * Can be propelled by a human (with pedals) or a motor, or both; * Has a motor with no more than 3.5 horsepower and 130 cubic centimeter (ccs) cylinder capacity; * Can't go more than 30 miles an hour. In other words, if your vehicle can't get up to highway speed, it's probably a moped. As long as you have a current Kansas driver's license or a motorcycle license, you may legally operate a motor scooter on Kansas highways. You are also required to wear a helmet (if you are under 18) and all riders must wear eye protection. If you want to legally carry a passenger, the moped must be equipped with a permanently-attached seat designed for passengers. All passengers must ride astride―no handstands, please. All mopeds driven on Kansas highways are required to have current motor vehicle insurance and be legally registered with the Kansas DMV. The definition of motor-driven cycle, which includes motor scooters, refers to any two-wheel vehicle "with a motor which produces not to exceed 5 brake horsepower" according to the Kansas Motorcycle Manual. Basically, it's considered a small motorcycle. Because a motor scooter is defined as having a higher horsepower than a moped, to ride one, you have to get a motorcycle operator's driver's license. Motor scooter rules are the same as motor cycle rules. Every driver and passenger must wear a safety helmet (if they are under 18), all riders must wear eye protection, and in order to legally carry a passenger, there must be a permanently affixed seat on the motor scooter. To learn more about motor scooter operating rules, refer to the Kansas State Motorcycle Operator's Manual. The registration process for mopeds and motor scooters is the same as for all other motorcycle registrations completed in Kansas. If you purchase your motor scooter or moped through a dealership, the dealer will take care of the registration and titling paperwork for you and will provide you with temporary tags for the vehicle. If you purchase your motor scooter or motorcycle through a private party, the registration process is also the same as for other previously-owned motorcycle registrations.

any thing below 150cc do not need one.
You shouldn't be driving at all with a restricted license. If they catch you 99% of the time you are gonna get a ticket and have to get a friend to drive the bike home.
