Still not yet convinced - maybe in another 5 years they will be more tempting

We were at an autojumble a couple of weeks back and the mobile Dyno tester was there. Normal price £20 for two runs but someone wanted their electric bike dyno tested and he did it for nothing as it was the first he'd come across. I wish I understood the technical side of things because it drew a huge crowd and they were all laughing at first but it soon changed to puzzlement and then smiles and approving nods, so whatever it was showing on the screen had them all amazed. It wasn't totally silent, but it made a really horrible whining sound once it was wound up.
I think my idea of fitting sound cards to electric bikes is still a winner. Mine's going to sound like my Harley used to

I would rather get the bus than ride or drive an electric vehicle. I have vowed i will stop buying car or bike mags if the content exceeds 30% electric. petrol is king

The MotoE bikes are going to weight 270-kg - that is 42½-stone in proper units.

Just not right IMO.
