    Definately, the same reason we ditched kerosene for electricity to run our fridges, dispensed with Gas in lighting streets and homes. Electricity allows amazing advancements in living, as long as you have the oil and coal to build and maintain the systems. US Power Grid May Become Unreliable...

    One thing of interest is that the stalling out of the EV transition gets very little mention in the press. Just a few stories about "bumps in the road". But we're talking about a major roadblock to the government mandated exponential expansion of EV adoption across the planet. It's really the...

    And that is the assumption that everyone makes, they believe it's our brain power that got us here, where in fact is was the abundant cheap energy in Oil that did it. Not only did it do all the heavy lifting, and provide a feed-stock for everything from fertilizer to plastics to...

    What are you using for a tank cover? GEN 2

    I had a bagster on my old busa, they looked good in White, you could put your helmet on it and it wouldn't slide off and the little latches at the front were perfect for sunglasses. Haven't got one yet for the current maroon bike. There is no advantage to leather, if it gets wet and doesn't...

    Does anyone use the new Ceramic Dupont Chain saver chainlube?

    I'm not a fan of nuvo lubes, I stick with the ordinary stuff and replace the chain and sprockets every 30,000. It works out a hell of a lot cheaper.

    The battery is only part of the solution though isn't it, the Grid and access to it is the other side of the coin. In nearly every way EV charging stations are economically superior to Gasoline stations. No staff, no deliveries by huge trucks, no multi million dollar investment for buildings...

    No ICE cars in the near future? Imagine all the sales, 100% Now subtract those that bought because they believed the Green Washing, and subtract those that bought because they though it was the future, that in six years they would have no choice. Subtract too those that believed they would...

    Just because there was a natural hot cycle a million years ago doesn't mean the current one is natural. The science backing AGW, the Green house effect, was conclusively proven over 100 years ago, the only reason it's obscured today is because trillions of dollars have muddied the water. Same...

    It's pretty much the same across the board with all makers, they have been using investment cash to cover up the losses. I really don't believe a lot of the startups expected costs to drop in the years ahead. That was just marketing talk to keep the cash flowing in. I think most of the people...

    Funny how a year changes things isn't it? Imagine us a year ago suggesting Tesla would abandon it's charging network, that sales would be in decline, Companies stocks plummeting. Ha, we'd be laughed to scorn. But here we are. There is a 'thing' called recency bias that we humans suffer from...

    you guys know

    lol, funny thread. I remember when I first saw the bking, I though what? Someone has dropped their busa and pulled off all the scratched fairings and made a street fighter. Street fighter in the sense that they are always covered in scars.

    Yes, it's us anti-EV detractors that are to blame. I see he re-hired some of that 500, and of course he'll keep the current charging stations.

    Hamas attacks Israel

    I watched a new video on the 6-day war last night, what a feat, what a great victory. They certainly have it in them to crush these arab states but the war now, like the one in the ukraine, is being dragged out, controlled so to speak. I suspect there are may good reasons for this, from a...
