Are they trying to say that motorcycles require an EZ-PASS different from a car? I have 2 EZ-PASS's, and as far as I am aware they can be used on any one of my vehicles as long as I have them registered on each of my accounts.

When I signed up last year; I was told that motorcycles used a different E-Z Pass than the cars do...

I just went through this last week..............


It's a real pain in the azz. :banghead: You have to make a written request via mail or fax, and include a copy of your motorcycle registration. You CAN'T acquire a motorcycle EZ pass online anymore with this new policy. This is just a antiquated way of doing things, they will not accept any documents via email.................



This sucks for people upstate, because the nearest walk in center is hours away from us.

5 total walk in EZ pass centers, and 4 of them are in NYC.......:gaah:

I'll just mount it in my glove box or under the hood that covers my 2,384 cc's.

There were no issues when I added the Spyder to my account.

Maybe it's because motorcycles can pay a lesser fee and people were abusing it by saying "suuuuure I have a motorcycle" but really using it in a car. The way I read the web site was the lesser fee was meant for people that commuted on a bike and only on the Thruway. See https://www.e-zpassny.com/en/about/plans.shtml and scroll down to Vehicle Discount Plans.

The "motorcycle EZ Pass" is half off the toll when used on the N.Y.S. Thruway. It must have the "M" on the back. Well worth it if you use the Thruway a lot. :thumbup: Tom :spyder:

Still not enough toll roads out here to merit a pass, they do have them. The issue here is that they are eliminating all forms of payment on site. After you use the toll road you have to go online and make your payment...:banghead::banghead: where else but CA...:banghead:

Mine too. Considerably smaller than a regular EZpass. I just requested it on the EZpass website and registered my license plate (trailer plate too) & it showed up in the mail 5 days later. No other documentation necessary, so this is a change. Wonder why?
