I'm thinking that anything 50cc or less doesn't require a motorcycle endorsement. Most mopeds are 50cc or less and I don't know if they can be used to obtain the motorcycle endorsement.

I made it a point to get my motorcycle endorsement at the same time I originally obtained my driver's license at age 16--36 short years ago! I didn't own a street bike at the time, but had been riding off-road bikes of various flavors since I was 5 years old. My family was 1/2 owner of the local Honda motorcycle dealership at the time, so I borrowed a small street bike (200cc, if I remember correctly) and went and took my "test." The guy stood out in front of the building and told me to take it around the block. I made it back in one piece, so I passed! Good times.
