CLEARLY YOU DIDN't READ HUCK'S POST!...I'm not sure how your laws are in D.C. but here is the part that you dont get...
"Therefore, gas or electric, they require everything a street legal motorcycle would require to be operated on the street. This includes registration (4000(a) (1) CVC), and license plates (5200 CVC). You must have a driver’s license with a motorcycle endorsement (12500(b) CVC). You must wear an approved motorcycle helmet (27803(b) CVC), and carry insurance (16028(a) CVC). You are also required to have all the motorcycle lighting required by the vehicle code (24002(b) CVC).

In a nutshell, there really is no legal way to make these pocket bikes street legal. It is buyer beware out there when purchasing these things."
