because a motorcycle engine is smaller in comparison to a cars engine. a motorcycle also puts out more power for its size than a car engine. To do this it must create a large amount of centrifugal force and to do this it spins faster. This reduces the maximum amount of torque available, but due to the small size of motorcycle, and rider, the torque is not necessary, and can even be dangerous. A car requires alot of torque in order to move, so the engine must be made of heavier materials and moved slower.

Bicycles were invented first. Then someone added a small engine to them. The engine size grew. The need for pedals went, so they were taken off. Thus the motorcycle was born.
