Some interesting information about motorcycles, gas motor scooters mopeds and their impact here in the USA.
JOURNEY TIMES The average United States driver travels 29 miles per day and is driving a total of 55 minutes per day. (This is an average vehicle speed of 32 mph.) US Department of Transportation, Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Tests comparing car and motorcycle performance on real journeys suggest that traveling by motorcycle can shorten journey times by as much as 33 minutes of every hour for town centre and city travel, and 20 minutes of every hour for travel through a mixture of built-up and non built-up areas. Motorcycle Industry Association (UK).
POTENTIAL AGGREGATE BENEFIT Motorcycles cover 1-2% of the total distance traveled by road, and cars cover 86%. If 2% of car commuters switched to motorcycles or scooters, the current level of motorcycle utility use would effectively double. Motorcycle Industry Association (UK). Average 2002 annual household private vehicle expense is $7,371. This is divided into $3,665 for vehicle purchases, $1,235 for gas and oil and $2,471 for insurance and misc. US Department of Labor Statistics, Consumer Expenditure Survey.
PARKING SPACES 3 - 5 motorcycles fit per automobile parking space. Ride to Work.
US Dept of Transportation, Bureau of Travel Statistics.
NORMAL WEEKDAY MOTORCYCLE COMMUTING DAY FUEL USED (estimated)
150,000 commuting motorcycles x 5 mi average commute distance x 2 (both ways) = 1,500,000 motorcycle commuting miles per day.
1,500,000 motorcycle commuting miles @ 50 mpg (avg) = 30,000 gallons per commuting day.
100,000,000 commuting passenger cars, light trucks and SUV’s x 6 mi average commute distance x 2 (both ways) = 1,200,000,000 car, light truck and SUV commuting miles per day.
1,200,000,000 car, light truck and SUV commuting miles at 20 mpg (avg) = 60,000,000 gallons per day.
RIDE TO WORK DAY FUEL SAVINGS (estimated)
150,000 motorcycles use 30,000 gallons per normal commuting day x 2 (an estimated 150,000 added motorcycles on Ride to Work Day) = 60,000 gallons used by motorcycles on Ride to Work Day.
60,000 gallons used on Ride to Work Day - 30,000 gallons used by motorcycles on a normal commuting day = 30,000 additional gallons used by motorcycles on Ride to Work Day.
On Ride to Work Day, there are an estimated 150,000 additional Ride to Work Day commuting motorcycles and 150,000 less commuting car, light truck and SUV’s.
A 6 mile (avg) commute x 2 (both ways) x 150,000 commuting car, light truck and SUV’s = 1,800,000 car, light truck and SUV miles. 1,800,000 car, light truck and SUV miles / 20 mpg (avg) = 90,000 gallons.
90,000 less car, truck and SUV gallons - 30,000 more gallons used on Ride to Work Day = 60,000 less gallons of fuel used on Ride to Work Day.
IF EVERY WORK DAY WERE "RIDE TO WORK DAY",
60,000 GALLONS SAVED X 250 WORK DAYS = 15,000,000 LESS GALLONS USED PER YEAR.
IT'S TIME TO SAVE OUR MONEY, RESOURCES AND OUR PLANET.

Spring Start Up
When it's time to inspect the leisure use vehicles you've stored during the off-season for spring use, you probably inspect the most obvious items that come to mind:
* Check
engine oil and battery levels.
* Adjust brakes and throttle as needed.
* Check and adjust tire pressure.
* Check tires for wear and cracking.
* Check all lights and the horn
* Check all fasteners/fittings; tighten as necessary.
* Check battery connections all make sure they are
tight. Clean connections as necessary.
* Change engine oil on 4-stroke models. On
2-strokes, top off the 2-cycle oil
reservoir.
* Remove and re-grease the inner speedometer cable.
* Check for smooth operation of brakes and throttle. Lube cables and pivot points as needed.
* On the 2-stroke scooters check for proper
operation of the oil pump
* Change the transmission oil.
* Clean the air cleaner and dampen the foam filters with motor oil as appropriate
* Replace the spark plug
* Adjust idle speed as needed.
* Check drive belt for wear and cracks.
* Check all hoses - vacuum, fuel, oil. Make sure the connections are all still tight. Look for cracks or leaks, especially at the fittings.
* Check the carb fittings (at the air cleaner and manifold). Look for cracks or leaks.
Remember, before performing any inspection on your battery, insure there are no open flames or possibility of sparks around the battery and absolutely no smoking. Always wear eye protection, protective gloves and clothing.
To insure maximum performance and service
life for your battery, we recommended that
you use either a 1.5 Amp or 900mA Automatic
Battery Charger for battery maintenance
(available through our website or at your
local auto parts store).
