Friend of mine in the Bay Area commutes on a motorcycle. says depreciation and maintenance negate any savings. He does it because it saves him an hour a day commuting.

$120/season for oil change and filter + new tires every 2 years (unsure of the costs here as I've yet to need this on my new bike). Surely this is comparable or less than the average ICE car?

You forgot valve checks. Those are an expensive service required on bikes but not on cars.

And moto tires are expensive, much more so per mile than car tires.
