I have a big motorcycle, two wheels, not three. I will try to explain.
Visibility on a motorcycle is phenomenal. Not only do you not have roof pillars in the way, you're sitting high enough that you can see over things (like you can in an SUV or truck).
There is so much room for activites ... in your traffic lane. I never have concerns about being too close to other traffic, construction barriers, curbs, etc.
Performance-wise, if you want to experience crazy acceleration without spending supercar money, get a motorcycle. And a big motorcycle will handle high speeds on the highway just as well as, if not better than, a car at the same price point. (At least mine does.)
Fuel economy. My big - nay, giant - motorcycle gets 33MPG, and that's including occasional crazy acceleration I noted earlier. And my fuel injectors are dirty, too. On the down side, mine requires premium, but there are big bikes out there that will take 87 octane.
I would never park like this, and I have had words with people who do.
Im just curious. Is it a Goldwing? Maybe an electraglide. If its bigger than those i would be very curious. I live in the SW, so i ride routinely. I agree with the view. Its nice being up higher (r1200gs), though as of late i am grateful my fuel economy is a bit better at 40 ( its also a 2007, so older ). Being on a bike leaves you more exposed, but i kinda feel safer. Like you mention, we have space in a lane, we can maneuver into, and out of, places cars cant. When we do hit, its worse, but with good driving habits you can do a lot more on a bike. Meh, could be i just really live my bike and have become biased.
2007 Triumph Rocket III. Way back, I almost bought a naked 76 Goldwing, but it turned out to have some mechanical problems that spoiled that deal. Now I am on "the bike" for me.
