    Why do I ask?

    According to wikipedia.org an automobile is:

    Motorcycles can carry up to two people (even more with a sidecar) and carries it's own motor.

    So what do you think?

    A motorcycle is an automotive vehicle or motor vehicle, but IMHO, not an automobile.

    From Canadian VEHICLE CODE:

    3. Bicycles; Motorcycles
    A bicycle is not a motor vehicle. Green v Pedigo (1946) 75 Cal App 2d 300, 170 P2d 999
    Self-propelled bicycle was excluded by former section from definition of motor vehicle. Tomson v Kischassey (1956, 4th Dist) 144 Cal App 2d 363, 301 P2d 55
    An automobile liability policy covered the named insured and his parents as "relatives" in connection with an accident in which the insured was involved while operating a rented motorcycle not described in the policy, even though the policy mentioned only non-owned "automobiles"; while a motorcycle is not an automobile, it is a motor vehicle.....

    From a lawsuite:

    (f) Motorcycle is not an automobile. Ingersoll v. Aetna Casualty and Surety Co., 138 N.J. 236, 238 (1994).
