MoPeD

Here in lies the question for motorcyclists. I have been told for years that mopeds are not real motorcycles. (according to the motorcycle gurus). I look at this picture and it shows two people on a motorcycle appearing to be having a great time. Isn’t that what two wheel adventure is about. I think the difference was a smaller engine and an automatic transmission. Honda has their motorcycles in automatic transmissions now. They are high cc motorcycles and not lacking in horsepower. Does the automatic make them less of a motorcycle? I don’t think so. I think I am going to ride an automatic next spring to see how they perform.
