Furthermore, do motorcycles pollute more than cars?
Motorcycles Pollute More Than SUVs. Turns out the average motorcycle is 10 times more polluting per mile than a passenger car, light truck or SUV. It seems counter-intuitive, because motorcycles are about twice as fuel-efficient as cars and emit a lot less C02.
