Why doesn't my exercise count?

You know nothing of what kind of motorcycling I do/have done in the past...

There was a hint of British tongue in cheek humour in my post, I'm sorry that didn't translate well.

Trust me, an hour at full whack, in changing conditions, throwing a 190kg (Inc fuel weight, excluding rider weight) bike from side to side against natural gyroscopic forces, with the braking and acceleration forces involved, burns a lot of calories. Couldn't tell ya how many!

Still like sitting on a chair though

I've ridden motorcycles it's not the same. Holding on with your arms/hands is not the same as using your center of gravity/ balance as your only means of staying mounted. The only similarity is that you are sitting astride. Motorcycles also don't have a mind of their own. Can't say the same for bikes or chairs.
