Would anyone happen to have any idea approximately how many calories I might burn riding (not driving) a motorcycle? Or any way I might be able to find out?

I just found this at http://calorielab.com/burned/
"Riding motor scooter or motorcycle burns 121 calories per hour" (for my weight, 177lbs). Do you think that sounds accurate?

I think it matter what kind of motorcycle you ride. I would think a cruiser take the least amount of physical energy to ride. Moto-cross you are getting a crazy hard workout. Sport bike riding (what I do) is pretty physical but not as much as the moto-cross. I know when I finish riding my arms neck back abs are feeling it from all the turns and movements. it would also depend on city or country riding. City stop and go strait lines would be less work that country full out twisties.^_^
