So just to cover the motorcycles electrical needs you need 100 watts of panels, right? lets say you some how find enough space to have 200 watts of output that gives you 100 watts of extra power, you could power a radio with that, charge a small battery slowly or power a motor... a 100 watt motor on a bicycle would propel you down the road at about 8 mph, a nice relaxed speed, in other words, you would almost go faster/further/save more gas, if you put a set of pedals on your motorcycle then if you tried to add 100 watts worth of electrical energy in to the drive train, of course taking that load off the alternator is going to help but it would help more if you could remove the alternator and that is not possible on most motorcycles.
