Save gas, the 3rd world country way.

So a bunch of my friends have been buying up bikes these days with the gas prices so high. I don't care as much, because it's still cheaper to buy gas (by volume) than a bottle of water! However, if you're one of these people, who insist that $4.399 per gal. of gas is a bit pricey (Maui price of Premium, last I checked) then you might be interested in the Honda Wave 125i. This has a 125cc 2-valve, 4-stroke engine. This has lots of customizations too, which has made it very popular in Asian countries like the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, etc. Also, check out the Honda C90. Europe appears to swear by this thing, and gets something like 200 MPG! Looks like a moped, it is a moped, but not in Hawaii where anything more than 50cc is a motorcycle and requires a special license.
