Wow, the more things "improve", the more they don't in some aspects.  My
30 year old CX500 gets an honest 48MPG with full Vetter fairing.   A '95
Geo Metro (Suzuki Swift) has a 10MPG or more advantage over a modern
hybrid, without a $7000 battery pack to replace as soon as it's out of
warranty.

MAC: Like many of our beloved type 44 variants, many on this list are
"forced" to keep them on the road because there's nothing out there that
comes close to being an equal/better replacement.
