Electric bikes?

Work safe.

No idea if it's a Ginge. If it is... well, enjoy a second helping.

It's a trials style bike, and obviously hasn't the range for a decent
ride, but the future, it's a coming boss.

 

Thanks for that, thats another hour of my life gone by reading and
watching clips! Nice machine. If a road going bike could be built...
and charged in just 5 minutes as it claims... then a new world awaits.

Who do you think will be the first with a production electric road
bike? Sounds like a Honda, but I bet Kawasaki would make it more fun!

 

Do keep up at the back!

Hmmmm....only two wheels. It'll never catch on.

 

Saw one of these at a show somewhere:

If the noise problems continue or more likely worsen as we get more
crowded, they might save MX tracks around the country. Already one of
my local tracks, Washbrook, don't allow engines to be run in the
paddock and have had to build a twelve foot straw bale wall to shield
nearby houses.

The main problem is the four-strokes: the noise carries far further
than a stroker's ring-a-ding-ding.
