remember when abc's wide world of sports put on an event called the super bikers where drag bikes, road racers, flat trackers, tt racers and motocrossers all showed up and raced a half dirt/ half street track. inline 4 cylinders , parallel twins, v twins, singles, 2 strokes and 4 strokes...

I don't even like bracket racing....head to head or forget it. that's the meaning of racing, to find out who and what is the fastest or most powerful. classes just muddy things up(except age brackets). 125's, 85's, 250's, 300's, 450's, 650's, electrics, let em all run together. find out what's...

the ic.e. age is almost over! I hope electricity didn't jump too soon. what I mean is this has been done before. there was a time when cars ran on...gasoline, steam, diesel or electricity. gasoline won out because it made more power and refilled quicker. it was all around safer and the main...

I don't think electric vehicles by high end sports car manufacturers is nearly as appalling as Maserati, porsche, jaguar and Ferrari s.u.v.'s. what's next? corvette school busses? At least e sports cars will look cool and go fast.

my hovercrafts propeller pretty much drowns out the engine sound, but dirt bikes with propellers sounds dangerous. imagine running into someones blades out on the track. I can hear the race commentators now " number 27 took a bad fall in turn 6 and it looks like...yes, he's been eviscerated...

this is bringing back memories of slot car racing when I was a kid. I remember hearing the roar of tiny electric motors and getting butterflies with the anticipation of racing. I also remember the higher notes of the faster cars and really being drawn to them. sure racing will be quieter but no...

I hear people say that the sound of an ice engine is irreplaceable and that electrics make no sound( I'm talking motorcycles here), but my Altas sound is exciting to me, especially in the dirt, and the zero I can hear when accelerating out of a corner or off the line. people are crazy, electrics...

honda is famous for their fit and finish. this is a prototype not finished product. prototypes are for testing and making adjustments so they may not mount things in such a way that would make it difficult to swap out and/or adjust. sometimes things are left uncovered to show components used and...

no one understands until they ride one. no distractions(noise, clutch, shifting, stalling, etc.). battery technology will improve and range will get longer, weight will come down and power will go up and if they standardize batteries you can swap out like bbq grill tanks in less than a minute...

I think the logic is that the batteries of electric bikes can catch fire and cause a hazardous condition where as everyone knows gasoline is not flammable!

THAT'S FUNNY!

I know it's the rules but it just seems silly to make an electric bike sound like a gas burner. someone should come up with a cooler sound. like a helicopter or the Jetsons car/shuttle whatever it is. someone won pikes peak with a car alarm blaring the whole time. I still like ner nee ner nee...

if it were me I would use a police siren. maybe even the European ner nee ner nee. how much fun would that be!

if both bikes are based on Ktm's wouldn't an alta lhrb set up work on a Varg? if you change the master cylinder you can have pedal and lever like I run on my alta (rekluse), or just the lever like alta released. never seen a Varg in real life so I'm just ASSuming.

you missed where it says chief comedic instigator under his name. he is a knowledgeable person who also injects humor into these threads....ie, he didn't really mean it.

A few years back I had light speed bikes in jersey city build me a 72v battery for my Sur Ron. I got talking with the owner and he builds all kinds of lithium batteries for aircraft and other uses. he said that rebuilding an alta battery shouldn't be too difficult. as far as I know he hasn't but...

as an after thought, ebikes are the only true motorcycles! i.c.e. bikes are actually enginecycles, that's what the "e" in i.c.e. stands for! electric motor vs. gas engine. the a.m.a must change their name or represent us.

as a long time Ama member I hate to say that it may be time to boycott that out of date thinking group and start our own e.m.a. all we need is an Elon musk type to champion us. if the a.m.a. will not move into the future with us perhaps they should become the past. ps. I really hope they take...

why would you publicly post where you hid an air tag on your bike!

possibly...dirtlegal will get your bike registered in Maine where they don't title dirt bikes. you can then use that registration which is a Maine title to change your title to New Jersey. was the dealer stumpys in Neptune city?
