Difference between MOTORCYCLE MOTORBIKE SCOOTER MOPED SCOOTY?
basically a motorcycle is a bike that goes between your legs when riding (you straddle it like a horse, it may actually have some real power!) A scooter is generally something you'd sit on like a chair, (e.g: Vespa/Peugeot 50cc or 125cc etc.) and a moped is basically a bicycle with a very small engine attached to it. If you're going to be riding on the road in traffic, get a motorcycle that way you'll learn the skills needed to survive have the proper machinery to get you out of bad situations that other road users (i.e cars other 4-wheel wankers) put you in i guarantee that it'll happen sooner or later speak to a motorcycle shop to find out what really suits your needs. hope this helps.
There is a bit of a cultural difference here. I'm Canadian, and to me a motorcycle is any size, and has a manual transmission. There are foot controls for the rear brake and the gearshift. You straddle it. A scooter has a flat floor, usually no foot controls, and no manual gear-changing. The two are designed for entirely different purposes. I drive a scooter in Taiwan. The cargo capacity is phenomenal, and it is legal to pass on the right, park on the sidewalk, make u-turns in the middle of the road, and all kinds of things like that. For driving in the city, a scooter is much more useful. I enjoy mine a lot, and I can still do 100 km/h with a passenger on the highway. Not bad for a 1215 cc! A motorbike is a loose term that can describe either a motorcycle or a scooter. A moped is a power-assisted bicycle. I don't know what a scooties are, but I expect your doctor could give you a lotion to put on them.
a motorbike has cord spokes on the wheels and a motorbike has 3 to 6 wider/thicker spokes on the wheels. particular i comprehend, some Cruisers do come out with sturdy wheels. So chew me. stay Upright.
