Question 6661
A two-wheeled vehicle equipped with an internal combustion engine may be classified as a motorcycle provided that...
- it has at least two seats, including the driver's seat.
- its engine displacement is greater than 50 cubic centimeters.
- it can reach a maximum speed greater than 40 km/h.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: its engine displacement is greater than 50 cubic centimeters.
A two-wheeled vehicle with a combustion engine is a motorcycle if its engine displacement exceeds 50 cm³. It is also a motorcycle if its maximum design speed exceeds 45 km/h, not 40. The number of seats is not part of the definition; the motorcycle in the image is carrying a passenger, but that is not what makes it a motorcycle.
