A 7000 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Includes a class three bicycle with electric assist in the definition of limited use motorcycle

This bill amends New York's Vehicle and Traffic Law to explicitly include "class three bicycles with electric assist" in the legal definition of a "limited use motorcycle." It directly affects e-bike riders and transportation regulations by categorizing these bikes under the same classification as low-speed motorcycles. The change clarifies that class three e-bikes (with a maximum speed of 28 mph) will now be treated as limited use motorcycles under existing law, affecting how they're regulated, registered, and operated.
