If you've noticed everyone who has sad my mileage seems low rides a bike with fairings including yours. I'v pointed out multiple times that I ride a NAKED bike, my mileage is about the same highway or city. I get high 30s to low 40s.

That's not too bad, insurance is a weird beast. I ended up on a FZ6 due to the insurance, $480 per year. I wanted to get a R6 but I kept getting quotes in the $1500 per year region. I didn't check Geico though.
I'd like to ride one sometime, there's not too many people willing to let you ride their turbo bike though.... The S100RR is an amazing bike, I would love to own one, but I'm 23 and can't afford the insurance. I had the chance to sit on the new S1000R last month, I think it'll replace my FZ6N when it wears out.
Couldn't tell you, but I'd imagine around 7,000 RPM so just under half way to redline.
That sounds about right I think the FZ6 with fairings gets low 50s. How does a turbo R6 ride?
Those are nice, wish I could afford one. Japanese for me for the time being.
FZ6N, no fairings = bad mileage.
Yeah, the 650R is pretty good. My bike (FZ6N) would probably be up there, but it doesn't have any fairings. My Ninja 250R would get 50s but it didn't like the highway.
Well I suppose it depends on what kind of bike, the CBR250r is very slow and has nice fairings. You have to get a little more specific with the Ducati though. The M1100 is in the high 30s to low 40s.
All of the air cooled engines are that way for aesthetic reasons, carburetor bikes are usually very cheap, the rest of the engines are top notch. I mean my bike is putting out 150 whp per liter. Not many cars can do that without a turbo.
I think it's more of an aero thing.
I have a Yamaha FZ6N, it usually get's around 40 MPG. I understand the reasoning behind the difference, all I'm saying is it's amazing.
Now if only my motorcycle would get 45mpg highway... it's amazing how efficient cars are compared to bikes.
Used corvette hands down. The benefit of the new crapmobile is better financing terms though. I got a much better APR on my 2014 Focus ST than I would have got on a similarly priced 30,000 mile C6 (2% vs 8%).
You must have skipped economics class that day.
Dude... if you can't afford a 53,000 car you couldn't afford a 50,000 car.
I'm sure it will, a used Vette is a absolute performance bargain.
Nah I'm only 23, so your right I can't afford it, I can however afford a used C6 no problem. I'd imagine that 53k for a new C7 wouldn't be hard to swing another ten years into my career.
FWD isn't the end of the world. Like I said if your not pushing it in the corners the Accord would hold its own.
Right, not to mention I was trading in a 2012 SE hatch...
