Ummm... I've never driven a hybrid, but from the specs and what
I remember from the years I had a motorized two wheeler:

Motocycles are much worse in winter weather.

Motorcycles have much less energy involved with manufacturing.

Motorcycles I remember need more maintanance than cars in general.

Motorcycles are much easier to park.

Hybrids have much better range on a tank of gas.

Hybrids can carry much more stuff.

Motorcycle insurance is much cheaper than car insurance.
