While the motorcycle came to be in the late 1800s, it wasn’t until 2014 that the motorcycle emoji hit the digital road as part of Unicode 7.0.
The appearance of the motorcycle emoji, officially called Racing Motorcycle by Unicode, varies across different platforms, as shown in the screenshot from Emojipedia below. It may also popularly go by motorbike emoji.
Emojipedia
Some platforms, such as Microsoft, feature a person on the bike, while most, including Apple and Google, feature a driver-less vehicle. Color ranges widely, too, but major vendors show the front of the bike facing left. They also depict a vehicle that suggests a superbike used in motorcycle racing. Apple’s design, however, resembles a cruiser motorcycle.
The motorcycle emoji is not to be confused with the motor scooter emoji, 🛵.
Who uses ?
The motorcycle emoji is most widely used by motorcycle lovers, be it riders, racers, fans of motorcycle racing, or bike collectors.

Law enforcement, however, may use the motorcycle emoji to remind others not to drive too fast.
#Raining ⛈️🌧️🌩️🌨️⛈️ : You should always drive at a slower speed when the roads are wet. The faster you drive in a rainstorm, the more likely you are to have an accident. 🏍️🚗🚕🚙🏍️
