Yes, it is possible to ride a motorcycle with no gears, but it would be limited to motorcycles equipped with automatic transmissions. Motorcycles with automatic transmissions do not require the rider to manually shift gears as the transmission system handles the gear changes automatically.

Automatic motorcycles use a variation of transmission systems, such as continuously variable transmissions (CVT) or dual-clutch transmissions (DCT). These systems adjust the gear ratios seamlessly without the need for manual clutch operation or gear shifting by the rider.

Riding an automatic motorcycle can be simpler for beginners or those who prefer not to deal with the complexities of manual gear shifting. However, it's important to note that not all motorcycles are available with automatic transmissions. Most motorcycles on the market feature manual transmissions, which require the rider to manually shift gears using a clutch and gear lever.

If you are considering riding a motorcycle with no gears, it's essential to choose a motorcycle model specifically designed with an automatic transmission. Be sure to familiarize yourself with the specific operation and controls of the automatic motorcycle you intend to ride, as they may have different features and riding characteristics compared to manual motorcycles.
