my 1989 honda hurricane 600 best was 52mpg. I tend to ride it for the acceleration (not top speed) so I usually get 48mpg being hamfisted

When I had my crx hf I usually liked to tell people that my motorcycle got the same mpg with an engine less than half as big and it put out more power too.
On that note, I've noticed in a few futuro hybrids and gas sippers that some of them have motorcycle sized engines now...maybe even a MC motor?

I always wondered why MC engines appear to be so much more efficient than car engines when you compare size and power
