Question 4138

A two-wheeled vehicle without a sidecar, with an internal combustion engine whose displacement is greater than 50 cubic centimeters, is considered...

  1. a moped or a quadricycle.
  2. a motorcycle.
  3. a two-wheeled moped.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: a motorcycle.

If the vehicle has two wheels, no sidecar, and a combustion engine with a displacement over 50 cm³, it is a motorcycle. Exceeding that displacement or having a maximum design speed over 45 km/h is enough. A moped cannot exceed either limit, and a quadricycle has four wheels.
