> In the long run, the motorcycle will likely cost more than the bike, considering gas, insurance, and maintenance expenses. Gas cost is nominal - premium, $6/gallon and 130mpg with a 1 gal tank. Insurance is equally nominal - $20/month for single motorcycle for a clean record driver in their late 20s/30s with more than minimum coverage Maintenance - a wash. Bikes are cheap/easy to maintain yourself and are more complicated in their E versions I'd imagine.
