motorcycles

It's primarily for air-cooled motorcycles, and to prevent them from overheating = no airflow = no cooling.

No one would question that motorcycles are better than bicycles, but you probably don't want to start on one.

Bikes also occupy very little parking space - five or six motorcycles can fit in the space of a single car.

Traction issues happen on all wheeled vehicles, motorcycles are just extremely sensitive to them.

A bike is a slow-moving vehicle (like a tractor or horse-drawn carriage) and when you pass a slow-moving vehicle, you should not do it in their lane (exception -- bicycles and motorcycles may lane-split).

Even Ford is now looking into manufacturing both motorcycles and bikes.

As pvdebbe points out, motorcycles can be extremely fuel efficient.

I see a bunch of people crabbing about motorcycles and how they shouldnt stop us from choosing a more slick road surface.

Because motorcycles are the number one users of road?

How does this work in the context of motorcycles?

The study tries to correlate those things with motorcylists who lane-split, while openly admitting that they actually correlate with motorcyclists who commute to and from work on their motorcycles.

If you want him to slow down or stop at a certain point on that side of the street, and you know he likes motorcycles, you park a custom chopper there.

"He'll know something about motorcycles before he gets those together....and that's the best way to learn, too.").

"Sometimes, they would use motorcycles to surround the police, threatening them with AK47 rifles and grenades." Very, very unlikely.

You've missed the point that using the analogy of "biker gang" is inherently portraying groups of people that ride on motorcycles and have a favorite bar are inherently bad people.

We handle motorcycles differently - and at least where I am are working out the sensible restrictions for "in between" categories - bicycles with more or less powerful electric or gas motors.

Motorcycles face many of the same problems, but we tend to be a bit pragmatic about it.

Motorcycles and bicycles have a vastly disproportionate impact on improving traffic flow.
