[QUOTE="Laser Dude, post: 1384738, member: 89304"] It is a [U]MOTOR[/U]CYCLE. An actual Motorcycle. I think what you were trying to do is imply it doesn't have a motor, so it's not a Motorcycle. However, motorcycles run on Engines, not motors, so technically, it's the current terminology that's wrong. It should be an Enginecycle to be technically correct, if it's how I always understood the difference. A motor being electric and an engine consisting of an internal combustion process. I could have been taught wrong, so take that for what's it's worth, an opinion on the internet [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/uhoh.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
