Hello everyone, the times is approaching when I will have to get an automobile. I am seriously considering getting a motorcycle, since I know they get great MPG (50-60 mpg for some), and are generally cheaper than a car to buy. They also just look badass, and fun to use. I go biking a lot, so I think I have an idea of what it would be like, just a lot faster with no physical effort on your part. Anyway, my parents are completely against the idea, because they think that I will get into a high speed crash and die.
What do you guys think? Is a motorcycle a good idea?
I live in Houston,TX by the way, so most of the year is warm enough for one.

They way i see it a motercycle should be a side vehicle, one that you don't use all the time. The way I'm planning it is that I'll use a car most of the time, and the motorcycle if the weather is nice and I'll be driving on smooth roads.
