well, legally it won't be a scooter anymore (in most states) if it goes over 30 miles an hour (35 for some states). If it does, you'll need a motorcycle endorsement, the classes and you'll have to register it, title it, insure it and pay any taxes/fees associated with a vehicle.
but, some scooters can go over 30 miles an hour, they just don't advertise that. Look around on the forums, particularly visforvoltage.org and endless-sphere.com
keeping it under 1000 is going to be hard to do, especially with 45 miles an hour and having to live up to those standards of a motorcycle.
