Yes Phil, but I would miss the satisfaction of taking something running like crap and turning it into a sweet singing machine. Bit hard to do that when they run perfect all the time and have no parts to wear out. The major questions in my mind is about the supply of the electrons. In this country we make all our electricity by burning coal = more pollution. How will the 70 year old lines and infrastructure carry the extra load when all the electric cars/bikes are plugged in? Will they (like the Toyota Prius, etc) be a major drain on the resources to make and dispose of at the end of their life (more pollution and resources are used to make a Prius than a Kenworth truck). Questions to be answered before we all start buying electric.
I saw that, pretty awesome. I wonder how he stops all the water getting in the air filter/exhaust etc
He appears to be keeping that front wheel up all the way, slight dip forward and it's "Good night Robbie" pretty cool
Agree with Damus. These vids are cool to your mates, but putting them out in the public arena where the people in authority can see riders/drivers doing crazy speeds and dangerous overtaking manuvers (and crashing) only adds fuel to the fire for restricting the speed limits and getting the coppers involved with their speed cameras. This is exactly what happened with the great Bell Line road between Richmond and Lithgow in Sydney. I strongly suggest that if you do this (and I don't mean this in a negative way) and post on the net that you cover the speedo so there can be no evidence of speeding.
Could you imagine if this was in Australia. It would be on ACA and someone would be pushing to ban motorbikes and make everyone ride scooters
I think its scary that these machines are allowed on public roads, i mean really we are lucky to have the opportunity in this modern age to own track ready machines from a showroom. Its a privilege not a right. It unfortunately is his choice to upload them however and we can't stop people using a broad brush to tar all motorbike riders with the same feathers. The reason we buy them is because they are fast though amirite?
Toss pot wanna do that go on track I have hero mates and laugh and the stuff they do but tell me I won't feel sorry if I end up at the funeral for doing this stuff
