If that's the motorcycle of the future then I'll walk.  [thumbsdown] Luckily, I don't see that catching on.

I agree with Triple J.  So much for "technology" and the advances IMO.  A battery powered car is all I see but I don't discount the usefulness in Europe and countries like China and India.  I just still can't believe how ridiculously expensive battery powered anything is these days.
Can we thin the gene pool?

Its wasting too much energy just to keep it upright.

For about $3000 more you can get a Diavel  [evil]
