Car vs bike fuel consumption
There is the very real possibility that, ultimately, a car can go farther on less fuel than a 2 wheeler. The reason is that it can be aerodynamically cleaner with a not much bigger frontal area.
Why do I do bikes? I like bikes. Better yet, the government stays out of my life more with bikes. If I actually manufactured a bike, I'd have no crash testing... air bags, emission testing, etc.
49 cc - about 5 hp - ain't going to give you 70 mph, into any headwind. You need at least 16 hp. But it is looking like, for longevity, maybe 20 hp is needed.
