Whenever I've seen the claim that the "Average Motorcycle" pollutes more than an "Average Car", and I've checked the sources of the data used to make that claim, I've found that more often than not, the data being used to calculate emissions is from a late 70's study on Two Stroke motorcycles, which is then pitted against an imported economy car from the 90's. A stacked deck to be sure.
Nowadays, even those bikes that have had numerous mods are for the most part probably just as clean, if not cleaner than a car of similar displacement.
Factor in the greater economy of a bike, and it's a no brainer which one is more ecologically sound.
I question Honda's vision in the sustainability factor for a fuel-source such as this one they're touting here.
Ethanol isn't much better than fossil fuels either, since experts estimate it takes nearly 2/3 of a gallon of fossil fuel to create a gallon of ethanol, the return on the investment isn't really good enough to call it a long term solution.
*sigh*
When will our Vulcan Brothers finally share the secrets of Nutrino Fusion, and Anti-Matter with us?
