Assuming that you're referring to Controlled Parking Zones, different local authorities seem to have different rules.

In Barking and Dagenham moped users don't need a permit:

(See Q.22)

They don't in Haringey either:

In the East Riding council area though moped users need a 'virtual residents parking permit':

For a definitive answer best to read the signs in your area or phone the council.
