What is the most economic petrol bike?

[Trinity765]

Some solar panels, a small wind turbine and a couple of eMTBs.

(+ a stash of weapons, plenty of ammunition, canned food, a supply of drinking water, a few trained attack dogs and a copy of 'The Road' to remind me that things could be worse ).

Wouldn't batteries be a problem pretty soon?

Not with that supply of weapons they wouldn't.

But, of course, the petrol answer is.....Solex.

(200+ mpg)

You are too vulnerable on a bike, something like a London taxi with wire mesh welded over the windows and a rope cutter bar from the bonnet to roof and lots of jerry cans in the back.

A Raleigh wisp isn't going to command much respect with Humungus's crew

Honda steppy 50, or 90 if I wanted the speed.
Topbox for the fuel can.

[Bigjawa]

I did have a CB Two Fifty that did 90 mpg.

Was that the 250RS or the Superdream.

Neither!



Basically a bored out Benly. 233cc

I'll be fixing horizontal sticky out long blades to the wheels and fck the mileage, they fkkers aren't getting close enough to stop me filling up with their fuel!!

I forgot about them things. When i was doing courier work (Van) a lad had one of them and never had a bit of bother. Ultra reliable even though pig ugly.

Lovely idea.

But if fixed to the wheels, the fork legs might be a problem ...

[porter_jamie]

Madmax youd need a dirt bike and assuming rhe worlds gone to shit you probably want a old air cooled kick start bike with a self generating ignition and a carburettor

There's always a negative!!

I'd find a way!!!! just fix them to something on the sides and ride really fast!!!!

Some japanese four stroke small cc trialie with brand new electrics

a stash of weapons, plenty of ammunition

Hmmmmm, maybe not, my latest zombie read has firearms as weapons of last resort*, the noise attracts the zombie hordes and you can never have enough ammo or reload fast enough to escape.

*although they do allow for suppressed weapons as the zombie virus causes damage to certain senses including hearing.

Aye, but 'weapons' includes, eg, crossbows and 'ammunition' includes bolts. (Silver tipped in case the vampires get a tad uppish too).

In that case, assuming magic infinite supply of bolts / projectiles, I want the German youtube fella riding pillion.

[KungFooBob]

I think I'd rather be a zombie.
