Convert them to run on ethanol. By then we should have figured out cellulosic ethanol production, which eliminates the issues and inefficiencies of using corn to produce it.

All that would be required is to use ethanol proof fuel hose, pump damper, and a 209 cc/minute injectors/pressure reg setup, rather than our 133 cc/minute @ 35 psi ones. Put a normal 43.5 psi regulator in, and some standard 20 pound an hour injectors, and you're golden.  While you're at it, you could bump the compression ratio and timing a bit. Would give more power, beyond the increase already there from the ethanol.

I guess that will be as good a reason as any to give up riding the motobrick when I'm 145.
