The manufacturer should specify the type of fluid that should be used. If it says DOT 4, then yes it's the same DOT 4. I don't think bikes generally use DOT 4, though: it's too moisture-sensitive.

Why does your car have to have brake fluid?

A car has to have brake fluid to allow for the effective operation of the brakes to stop the car. When we apply pressure to the brake pedal, brake fluid, which is largely incompressible, will transfer that pressure to the pistons that operate the in the calipers or the pistons that operate the brake shoes. Further, the fluid must be of the correct type for the system in which it is used. The continued safe operation of the brakes may be compromised by the wrong fluid.
