What is the difference between bicycle and motorcycle write in 1 paragraph?

The main difference between a bicycle and a motorcycle is that the former is powered by the human body but the latter is powered by an engine. Also, motorcycles can run a lot faster than bicycles, they have to be registered and insured and you need a permit to drive them, whereas you need no such thing for a bicycle. Finally, motorcycles are very heavy when compared with bicycles. They are also much more difficult to maintain and expensive to repair. A motorcycle consists of a lot of parts in comparison to bicycles, which are relatively simple in construction. It costs nothing in terms of fuel to drive a bicycle, except if you count the food that you eat as it gives you energy. A motorcycle has to use bought fuel and big ones use a lot of it.
