Definitely easier for a motorcycle, heck, if it was under 50cc there are effectively no active emissions at all.

To me they should have put in a G1 Honda Insight motor clone, 120mpg + and no worries on the emissions since motorcycles aren't even up to 2001 standards (looking at cars)
12g/mi for motorcyles 4 gr/mi for cars (and only certain ones)

Should be easier to meet indeed.
