So essentially it is a Can Am Spyder with a fully covered body. I will keep my cheap and reliable Honda Shadow...thanks.

The advantage of the Elio is that it has enough trunk space to carry your favorite sous vide immersion cooker.

Re: The danger, fuel economy, and expense of a motorcycle
I've never had a bike that got near that kind of fuel economy. My 2 current street bikes get 40-45 mph (08 cbr1krr, but does 0-60 in <3 seconds) and 48-50 (09 versys).
This thing doesn't have the active safety of a motorcycle (not as small or maneuverable, not quick acceleration, not up high with better visibility, etc). No thanks.

I had a Hondamatic that got 35-38, I had a 1100 Kawasaki LTD that got 33-35, I had mid 70s sportster that got 38-40, I had a Yamaha 250 Enduro that got about 40...out of all those bikes, I wish I still had that Enduro.
