Long Answer (taken directly from the Mass RMV website): Any two-wheeled tandem or three wheeled device that has handlebars, can be stood or sat upon by the operator and is powered by an electric or gas powered motor is defined as a Motorized Scooter.

The Massachusetts RMV does not register motorized scooters because they are not recognized as motor vehicles. In addition, motorized scooters have many operating restrictions:

* They cannot be operated at speeds greater than 20mph.

* Cannot be ridden on state highways or limited access roadways.

* Cannot be ridden after dark or before sunrise.

* Operators cannot carry passengers.

* Operators must keep to the right side of public ways at all times, including when passing a motor vehicle.

* Operators must wear an approved safety helmet.

* Operators are subject to all state traffic laws and regulations

*Mini-motorcycles and pocket bikes have been determined to be motorized scooters.

so if any you do not follow all those rules, no.
