Has he done a "Stew"? Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: Speeddog on October 16, 2018, 12:42:36 PM "Photo by Brad Black" Has he done a "Stew"? I stole the image from his FB, seemed like the right thing to do. ;D Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: Howie on October 16, 2018, 07:32:50 PM Oh my.
Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: stopintime on October 17, 2018, 12:16:03 AM Sponsored by "Big Oil" ;D
Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: yamifixer on October 17, 2018, 07:47:03 AM If Confederate made an electric bike.
Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: Speeddog on October 17, 2018, 08:39:26 AM All completely valid statements! ;D
I'm seriously trying to figure out who they think their new customer is. Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: kopfjäger on October 17, 2018, 11:24:16 AM If Confederate made an electric bike. They’re already working on one. They partnered with Zero last year. Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: Howie on October 17, 2018, 12:53:30 PM That be it.

Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: itsamonster on October 18, 2018, 02:48:53 AM Or a gas guzzling version!

I also need a battery that I can swap out in my garage. Someday...
Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: Howie on October 18, 2018, 08:27:06 PM How about this one?
https://lightningmotorcycle.com/product/specifications/#prettyPhoto Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: chipripper on October 19, 2018, 07:30:21 AM Holy Shit! That lightning bike would get the job done. :o and at only 39 - 47,000 $$$ I can probably have one some day! OK so I probably don't need an electric superbike. Aaaand I'm genuinely not-rich-enough to buy that, but it gives me hope for the near term future of getting a good electric commuter.
Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: koko64 on October 19, 2018, 11:45:23 AM Or a gas guzzling version! https://www.curtissmotorcycles.com/warhawk Wow. Gotta have a Flying Tiger paint job. Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: GregP on October 20, 2018, 06:17:46 AM How about this one? https://lightningmotorcycle.com/product/specifications/#prettyPhoto Doesn’t mention traction control/electronics, but with almost 170 foot pounds of torque, it seems it would be hard to manage on a track without something, other then a wrist, controlling wheel spin. The rear sprocket is very stunt bike but beyond that it looks the part! Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: DucHead on October 26, 2018, 03:26:01 PM I don't know, it looks pretty sensible to me. Do a load of whites and ride to work at the same time.

Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: ducpainter on October 27, 2018, 11:36:31 AM Should be a Crosley product.
Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: kopfjäger on February 04, 2019, 03:47:16 PM Stopped in today and got a look at 3 of them. Snapped some pics, but I can’t post them. It’s definitely different and they’re making only 20 more internal combustion engine bikes. Lectric from then on, so Matt told me.
Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: Speeddog on July 22, 2019, 02:26:27 PM I never thought it was possible to get *this* high and survive, but seems to be true.

Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: Duck-Stew on July 22, 2019, 04:02:58 PM "Photo by Brad Black" Has he done a "Stew"? Am I the "Stew" being referred to?!? ;D Title: Re: Curtiss Post by: Speeddog on August 01, 2019, 09:29:34 AM Curtiss CEO H. Matt Chambers talkin smack:
