The Honda C50 ( with gears ) although 49cc was never restricted, so IS classed as a motorcycle.
The C50 LAC ( FULY auto gearbox )is the only one that was restricted to 30 mph.
As I stated above & also did Griz.

The term moped, assigned category AM on a UK driving licence, describes any low-powered motor driven cycle with an engine capacity not greater than 50 cc (3.1 cu in) and a maximum design speed of no more than 45 km/h (28 mph).
Before 19 January 2013, the speed restriction was 50 kilometres per hour (31 mph), and mopeds registered before 1 September 1977 were required to have pedal-assistance.
A provisional license, full motorcycle or car license is needed to operate a moped.
An additional Compulsory Basic Training (CBT) certificate is also required to ride a moped on public roads, except for anyone who obtained their full car driving license before 1 February 2001.
A provisional moped license may be obtained at the age of 16, whereas standard car and motorcycles licenses are only available at the age of 17.
Provisional licenses require learner plates and expire after two years if the license holder has not passed a test, however it can be extended another two years by retaking the CBT.
Mopeds are subject to all of the same traffic laws as other vehicles.
All motorized cycles, motorcycles and mopeds under 50 cc are excluded from using UK motorways.
