I wondered if that was a Heavy Metal Umlaut.

Musk is working on a similar indicator system; it’s a 12 inch tall middle finger that pops up from the roof of any Tesla with the full self driving package. He promises deployment will begin in the third quarter of 2022.

E-bikes are such a gateway drug to cycling in its many forms. 

Cyclists for 30+year and lean ;)

My parents had a Park Avenue. “Ultra” if I remember correctly. They brought it to Germany with them (army) and it was the biggest car around. My mom got it stuck between two columns in a basement parking garage. It was a pretty comfy ride.

It means that you have to take your eyes off the road to adjust the mirrors, or indeed anything else. For a brand rooted in an idea of safety, it’s really not good enough.

Extra cushiony cloth car seats like late 70’s living room furniture. In fact, bring back bench seats. The whole thing can be an option, but I’ve sort of had enough with sport leather seats and 15 different support adjustments that always leave me stiff and uncomfortable after a long drive anyway. Just let me sink into

issue is we didn’t have enough power (electric) or processing power 40 yrs ago. remember this car has an 800V power system to control all those small electro/hydraulic actuators. a 12V actuator would have to be 10x the size to have the same amount of force.

Take the 900cc & 1000cc bikes out of your list and you’re left with the RE 650, MT07, and Triumph Bonneville/Scrambler.

I’ve never seen the draw of convertibles. Drive them during the day and you get a sun burn; drive them at night and you get moths in your car. Wind in your eyes drying out your eye balls, less torsional rigidity, can’t keep papers in your car, higher fatality in rollovers, and for what? Maybe if you really like

Maybe so, but I’m still salty about the trellis frame.

Give it a simple round headlight a bam, that’d be a huge improvement.

Colors. Actual colors.

What kind of barbarian writes his ad copy on his phone and posts it by uploading a screenshot from his phone? And at the end of the photo list, no less? You’re writing it, why not put it where it belongs?

this $500 car is not worth $4500. what the hell is wrong with you?

I’d argue (as would most states legal systems) that a street legal motorcycle and an ebike/moped are two different things. I don’t view ebikes as competition or replacement for road going motorcycles, including zero or other electric road bikes. I agree with OP that I would not own an e-motorcycle, as the engine is a
