I'm not sure if overall the bike saves money, but the time saving is priceless. My commuter bike was 3k total and everything maintenance wse was replaced before I bought it. I pay 90 bucks a YEAR for liabilty insurance and the bike gets 50mpg each fillup doing 85-100 mph. My F-150 got 14.66 on the last 65 buck fillup. Uggg....the bike is usually 13-14 bucks after 185 miles.

Since you get to split lanes in CA, I can get to work in 10 minutes (10 miles) in the morning rush hour traffic. Not to mention I get to go to the front of every traffic light and speeding is almost accepted if you're on a bike.

If I didn't get to lane split, I would prolly just take the truck.
