The motorcycle was very unreliable in its infancy. It required him to make frequent mechanical interventions. In addition, the roads were in poor condition and the suspensions were non-existent (if one ignores the springs of saddle). But very quickly the use of motorcycle spread starting with a tool working professionals. WWI has encouraged its use for military purposes. The motorcycles were replaced with mopeds and motorcycles are more convenient and cheaper than cars (bike tune up).

1955 NSU was with an annual production of 70,214 motorcycles, mopeds 228,369 and 45,747 bicycles largest two-wheeler manufacturer in world. Until 1957 (Germany) and 1989 (GDR) Germany had more motorcycles than cars. In this preference, the German conditions differed significantly from those in US and Western European neighboring countries. Open three-wheel vehicles (with symmetrical wheel assembly, ie no team) are generally referred to as a trike; for an A1 license is required up to 15 kW, about 15 kW class A [28], but with the minimum age of 21 years.

These statements allow Americans to attribute authorship of invention of motorcycle. However, unlike the invention of Perreaux, there remains no trace, not even a certificate proving its existence. The invention of Daimler, from 1885, was designed in order to test the powered motor oil. It was equipped with stabilizing side wheels, so four wheels in total. We can, however, argue that Daimler was first motorcycle with an internal combustion engine.

The Japanese motorcycle industry put forth in 1972 more than 3.5 million motorcycles annually, while in same year, Germany had a low of only 198,221 registered motorcycles. Honda has been the world market leader; the small motorcycle Honda Super Cub was the world's most-produced automobile. Japanese producers to give the two-wheeler to a new meaning as a "sport, hobby and leisure device" succeeded.

In 1897, the brothers Eugene and Michael Werner market cycle motor placed above the front wheel, which they give the name "motorcycle". From 1960, the practice of motorized two-wheelers was considered dirty or degrading. The wealthy then preferred automobile, which allowed to carry more people protected from rain, wind and dust. This time was a massacre for historical brands of motorcycles.

1928 DKW - due to changing tax laws and the introduction of reverse circulation in two-stroke engine - the largest motorcycle manufacturer in world. The two-stroke boom ensured that as early as 1932 in Germany more mopeds were registered as motorcycles. Gilera used in 1934 for first time a transversely mounted four-cylinder four-stroke engine in racing machine "Rondine".

A historic designation is motor motorcycle, resulting in short form moped has developed for the same today moped class. In vernacular hot motorcycles in Switzerland motorcycle. Other, even colloquial names are: Motorcycle, Bock, planer, oven, cart, Mopped (as diminutive, even with large weight - in contrast to moped but with two p). In Switzerland, depending on the canton, also following names consistently.

In early days of motorcycle development there was only one category, the motor motorcycle. 1902 emerged first built for a specific purpose motorcycles, racing motorcycles, and 1903 motorcycles with sidecars. In 1909 published first road motorcycles, around 1914 first trial machine. Over the years, street motorcycles experienced technical changes, so specific names originated.
