In terms of Titles and Registrations, it IS considered a Bicycle
For Licensing (Driving) and Traffic Control situations, it's considered a Moped. It does not and CAN NOT be titled or registered (in ANY municipality), but you still need a DL to ride a Motorized (gas) Bicycle on the road for 95% of the towns/counties in Florida.
There are a few exceptions in Florida where you can ride a Motorized (gas) Bicycle without the need for a DL, but there are VERY FEW!
(To find out if your town is one that allows Moped riders to not require a DL go to municode.com.)
The topic referring to Florida's legalities of Motorized (gas) bicycle has been discussed time after time....
The above paragraph is the ultimate answer to all and any questions about Florida.
Be aware that some of the things posted earlier are from more than 20 years ago and the statutes they refer to have been changed and edited, however as stated earlier in this post, there are a few municipalities that have yet changed their local laws so you'll be good to go in those cities.
