Is $3.25 Gas Helping Harley Davidson?

'Tend to average 50 mpg?' Gezz, I guess my Ford Focus tends to get 40 mpg then instead of 30. Anyway, add it all up before you take the jump guys. Let's see, initial cost , insurance, clothes to wear, minus actual useage because of weather restrains, present car payments plus the new ones on the bike. Wow, not much savings is there?
For commuting a small used car that gets 35 mpg and that you can drive year around really makes more sense and is probably safer in heavy traffic. Maybe when you compare a SUV getting 15-20 mpg a bike looks really good.
But the energy crisis we have right now has been coming for a lot of years, it seems nobody seen it coming because they kept buying the biggest trucks and building huge houses. Well, now you got to pay the pipper his due. Enjoy the present because the future looks all down hill.
