Mini-Motorcycle/Pocket Bike

A mini-motorcycle is a motor-driven cycle with a seat or saddle less than 24 inches from the ground as measured on a level surface with properly inflated tires.  Does not include a moped, motor-assisted scooter, or motorcycle designed for off-highway use and registered as an off-highway vehicle.

A person may not operate a mini-motorcycle on any public property, highway, path, or sidewalk unless the mini-motorcycle is registered for highway use and the operator is licensed to operate a motorcycle.  Click here to learn more about getting a motorcycle endorsement.
