The number one thing you'll want is comfort. Go to all the dealers you can find and sit on the bikes, you'll know right away if a bike is comfortable to you.

I would also HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend a rider safety course, first. Just search online for Motorcycle Safety Foundation for a course near you. You'll not only learn valuable skills in handling the bike but will also learn how to survive (no kidding). I've been riding for 30+ years and my bike is my main transport. I still go back to the MSF safety/skills courses for a refresher from time to time.

How many inches long is standard Harley Hardtail frame?

If you are riding 50 miles one way that is a pretty nice ride. You are a big guy and you would want to be comfortable so you may want to go with a bigger bike. Think about saddlebags of some kind because you may need rain gear or other things you carry to and from work. The small bikes get the best gas mileage but if your back and butt are killing you when you get there you want be to happy. Think of your comfort first.

Why dont motorbikes \ scooters get cought on speed cameras?

Bikes have what they call power to weight ratio. I am not trying to be a wise guy but at your weight you will need a bigger bike to travel the highway. I would look at bikes 1500CC or bigger that are all stock. A number of guys in my club have gone with after market pipes which require rejeting the carbs and have lost gas mileage. I have a 1500 Kawasaki Vulcan and get 45 MPG. Mine is rigged for trip with bags and windshield.

California motorcycle license?

I can only speak from my own experience. I've owned multiple sport bikes and cruisers. Generally the bigger the bike the less efficient it is. One of my current bikes is a 2000 HD Sportster 1200 Sport. It makes around 65HP and will easily carry you. I weigh 220 and can consistently get 60MPG when driving only on the highway at around 65. When around town doing stop and go, I get no less than 45mpg. I have a friend with a 883 and his mileage is in the upper 30s so in this case the larger motor was more efficient.

Don't just go out and buy the smallest bike that will carry you because you'll always be afraid of getting run over when you're struggling to run the speed limit.

Clean motorcycle windshield?

I have a 1980 CB650, just did 250 back route miles, 2-up ... combined weight ~360lbs and got 50mpg. On the highway I would expect to see 55-60mpg. Cost of the bike $700.

Vespa parts?


If you want to spend $3-5000 there are a lot of choices. Get at least a windshield. Expect 50-60mpg out of most bikes, heavier tourers and cruisers sometime dip to the 40-50mpg range. Smaller commuter bikes will easily see 60+MPG. e.g. Honda Rebel 250 is good for 70-80MPG. Ultimately your best fuel economy is going to come from smaller bikes, but I wouldn't recommend going below 250cc if you have any highway use.
