The whole problem with this whole discussion is the fact that the average car last 150-200,000 miles, average bike 10,000 maybe 15,000, doesn't matter if the bike takes 1/10 the materials if it thrown away long before any fuel saving come to payback. Yeah there's the odd Ninja 250 that goes 100,000 miles, but 10 for it that are killed before 10,000.
Economy car better than bikes for all but the best motorcyclist/ecoridders IMO.
