A motorcycle is not a great mode of primary transportation. I think they're viewed more as hobbies/toys than anything else. Youd be a moron to use it unless something like having your car stolen or broken which forces you to use a moto as your transportation.

my car's been broken since January. I've been driving my parents car until it broke 2 weeks ago. But it's warm enough I don't have to drive that often anymore.

No such thing as traffic in SD? h:

For commuting to a job where you don't need to carry a lot of stuff or dress up too much, I think motorcycles are a fine way to beat traffic and save gas.
