Electric motors are cool 100% torque immediately Still needs gearing. If it had gearing it probably would be faster and have higher top speed.. |

Cool Bike! What I liked best about the video is that it demonstrated the safety of lane splitting at the stop light. Oh I miss that safe and secure feeling I used to get in CA knowing that I wasn't going to get rear ended by an inattentive motorist. |
