DH has a bike. He has an 80's Goldwing. He gets like 30+ mpg out of it (don't remember the exact number, sorry). He rides it to work when the weather is good. He does the maintenance on it himself. We pay about $100 for insurance a year. Every few years (think he has this one he has for four years and we have it budgeted in for him to buy a new one this year) we invest in a new helmet (he sweats a lot and they start stinking), even with those cotton head things). We also invested a pretty penny in leathers and good boots.
He also rides for enjoyment, but we have kids. He mainly only gets to ride it back and forth to work right now.
