What is the difference between motorcycle and motorized bicycle?

I'm reading the DMV manual to try to get a motorcycle permit and the first paragraph says this:
According to New Jersey law, a motorcycle can be a motor bike,
a bicycle with a motor attached or any motor-operated vehicle of
the bicycle or tricycle type, except for a motorized bicycle.
