The writer of this article needs to revise the types of motorcycles on the market. these aren't mopeds. Mopeds are basically motorised bicycles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.160.125.179 (talk) 02:03, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
Honda Wave → Underbone → Moped
Technically, Honda Wave is an underbone motorcycle, which is a crossover between a moped and a full-sized motorcycle. All underbone motorcycles originate from Honda Super Cub which is categorized as a moped. To know more, please read the Underbone article for further explanation. Hope this helps, thanks.

- I think that the original point relates to the UK definition of a moped, which is a motorcycle with an engine capacity of less than 50cc and a maximum designed speed of 50kmh if registered after a certain date (1977?) It used to include a bit about having pedals as a secondary method of propulsion, but I think that this bit may have been dropped as virtually no 50cc bikes have pedals these days.. Anything with a bigger engine than 50cc (or any 49cc machine that has been derestricted in terms of top speed) is regarded as a motorcycle (not a moped), regardless of design.Paul-b4 (talk) 14:41, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- In addition to the above, according to GB law a moped is any vehicle registered after 1977 with an engine capacity of less than 50cc and a maximum designed speed of 50kmh. Any 50cc vehicle registered before 1977 is only regarded as a moped if uses pedals as a method of propulsion. So, according to UK law, bikes like the Honda C90 cub and the Innova are regarded as motorcycles, not mopeds. Of course this definition varies from country to country...
