I figured I would chime in. I've been riding my Rans Recumbent with a GX-35 Honda powered Staton friction drive to work and it's been great! I only drive 7 miles to and from work, so it's only 20 min by bike, 15 min by car.
The GX-35 is not really powerful, so top speed is about 26-27mph. I have proven to myself that it's a realistic efficient way to get around, so I just ordered a new Staton friction drive with the Mitsubishi TLE-43, should give a top speed of 36-37. That's about as fast as I want to go on a bike...
