Default Re: Sold motorcycle, bought a HCH

The reason motorcycles have more power is that they don't have emissions regulations, so they can be tuned for maximum power output at the expense of spewing some 20x more pollution than even the dirtiest hybrids. That will change eventually, but there will still be a gap between cars and motorcycles, and especially hybrids.
