I'd like to know what mileage (both fuel and longevity) are they counting on in the case of a motorcycle. Building it is energy- and material intensive nevertheless. It's just the '30%' part I'd like to check. Must be very different for a toy used on some sunny weekends and, say, a long range tourer with over 100k miles in the odo.

I agree anyway: such a waste
