As a recent member of the electric motorcycle club, I’ve found a few things amazing about electric.

I have an idea for a captivating and talented writer that has been inspiring others:

Will you tell them that their job is secure enough to buy a new truck with payments, then fire them and disappear them down the memory hole as soon as they take delivery?

Sean MacDonald, Tyler Rogoway, Wes Siler and C. A. Pinkham got me interested in reading a lot of the sub-blogs. Now we have click-bait centric crap like Sploid and Alissa Walker’s junk plastered all over Kinja. Seriously, can Road and Track just buy Jalopnik so we don’t have to deal with the Gawker drama anymore?

It’s because of this,

I don’t know, man, the seat is kind of hard...

I need to get you on a supermoto

So, I was sitting outside of a Chipotle the other day, enjoying my tasty burrito bowl, when two blue-collar dudebros pulled up on a CBR600RR and a GSX-R600. The first thing I noticed was that the Honda wore a sticker, emblazoned proudly across its windshield, of two racing-leather-clad bikers urinating on the GSX-R

Yes I immediately thought of this.

The “I am always right / LaneSplitter4Life Guy”

you’re dead inside

Nah, that ‘busa needed about 2 feet more of swing arm. Cornering is for pussies, brah.

zero percent, but “Hayabusa mutha fucka!” got me real good. and his pics/gifs are spot on.

Yammie is a cool guy. He just got a GT-86 as his daily (I think you people call it a “cage”) and runs around Dallas like an asshat on his Triple.

The coolest thing about KTM is that they’ve made ugly cool, simply because they’ve forced us to associate their weird styling with excellent performance. You’ll like where Husqvarna is headed.

Your life sounds hard

Ummm, yeah. We’re Jalopnik. We color things with our opinions.

Right. So they’re acting like a consignor, but not actually doing the things a consignor legally has to do like assuming title and getting licensed and bonded. Sounds an awful lot like Uber’s “we’re just a technology services company” line, which hasn’t worked out too well for them in the courts so far. Not trying to

“They’re also all mostly on the coasts, so check do your homework on which is available in your area.”

I didn’t. I wrote a story about a positive experience so you could hopefully have one too. You’re welcome.

They never own the car. They take the pink slip and a signed bill of sale and you sort of just have to trust them. Then again, they’d go out of business if people didn’t, so I sort of felt okay going for it.
