This is so awesome! Jeff Walker is the coolest YouTuber out there, racing on a professional level and posting his videos. I met him at RedBud last year.
He is actually twice as cool because he has a big red ProMaster motovan!
He was hauling ass!
Sign me up! If it recharges in 1 minute, then it is no different from a gas bike, which refuels in 1 minute. Except there is no maintenance. I am fully in.
It's only the traditional bike manufacturers who do not have the profit margins. They spend maybe $1,000 to build a gas bike and the rest is spent on the manufacturing equipment, facilities, labor, marketing, dealers, and service. With electric bikes you can and must cut most of these costs.
With Alta gone, all you see on the internet now, outside of this forum, are the haters who were never going to buy an electic dirt bike in the first place. The idea has died. Temporarily.
But have you noticed how the prices for e-bicycles have gone down? And how they now have more and more...
I will still be in Arizona at that time. Otherwise, I would drive to the other end of the country for a free track day! LOL, not really, but it would be very cool to check out Steve's favorite track and meet you all guys again
