According to New Jersey law, a motorcycle can be a motor bike,
a bicycle with a motor attached or any motor-operated vehicle of
the bicycle or tricycle type, except for a motorized bicycle.

a motorcycle is made with intentions to have a motor, while a motorized bicycle is a bicycle with a motor added to it
A moped will have less then 50 cc displacement and cant travel faster the 25 mph and cant have more then 1.5 bhp. Motorized bicycles are considered to be a moped.
