answer is NO
however there are certain roads that have municipal HOV lanes - also known as Diamond lanes, where a motorcycle can ride in them during specific times. Check signage to make sure you are good to ride in those lanes.

I don’t see what’s the big deal though if motorcycles were to use them reasonably.. driving the same speed as the cyclists

Even ebikes are restricted in their ability to use cycling infrastructure (IIRC on street lanes are ok, separate paths are off limits when under power).
You should get a minor ticket (failure to obey signs or driving off the marked roadway or similar) but if a cop was having a bad day, 172 could easily be invoked (filtering).
Yes, yes you can.
Try it and report back please.

No no I know, I just meant motorcyclists could easily use the lanes safely

Please use some force when you face palm for me
I'd say the same for cyclists on sidewalks. But the legal system prefers clear, simple lines over more nuanced, pragmatic ones.
