Sorry that you have a difficult relationship with your mom. Did you buy the bike with your own money? If so, I don't see any reason for you to feel pressured by her to sell/swap it (I think that's what you said you were trying to do).

I didn't quite follow that last part- who is it that is only 8 years older than you?

^^I agree, if you bought the bike yourself and you're old enough to own one then tell her to mind her own business, if she doesn't like it, that's her problem. Now I know some people don't like people using motorbikes because they worry about the person's safety, but even then they have no right to just tell the person not to. Does having the bike make you happy? Because if it does then you shouldn't have to sell it because of someone else, you have a right to do what makes you happy. I know it can feel hurtful not to have parental approval, but you're a person too, and you should be allowed make your own decisions. I'm sorry you feel laughed at though, could you either tell them to stop and explain you're actually suffering, or just laugh back at them. But try not to let anyone get to you, I know its hard though.
