    Bicycle means two wheels, so a motorbike technically is a bicycle, too.
    But e-bikes are closer to non-e-bikes than to motorcycles in terms of components, looks and propulsion.

      as you said: a motor bike is technically a bicycle. ok. then the feature that makes a different name is the motor, isn’t it? then a bicycle with a motor is a motorbike.
