I have motorcycle and it gets 60 miles per gallon.
News, Gas Prices Spur Motorcycle Sales.
DES MOINES, Iowa -- Higher gas prices are boosting motorcycle sales, according to central Iowa dealers.
"Some bigger bikes like the 500S get 58 to 60 miles a gallon," said Katie Lundstrom of Struthers Brothers.
Struthers Brothers had a 50CC scooter that got even more out of a gallon of gas. The dealer said a single-cylinder 250CC Suzuki gets 82 miles per gallon.
No. My brother was killed on a motorcycle. He was very careful, but you just never know what other people on the road are going to do. I'd rather just pay and be alive.

I've been riding since 1968, I would hope that no one starts riding just for the mileage unless they're willing to take a safety course and wear the right gear. It's a lot of fun but can get pretty gnarly out there.
I'd be too nervous. I'm with the above poster. Rather get a car that gets close to that
