“I don’t even like motorcycles of any kind”
Alta (the bike in this post) was competing with 4 cycle motocross bikes in competition, they competed in flat track too. It’s been done... unfortunately that wasn’t enough.
You probably already know this... but on a distributor of unknown condition you should probably set the timing at full advance (on my car it’s fully advanced by 2700 rpm) using the timing advance feature on your timing light.
Unfortunately, not enough people got on board for the bike he is riding (an Alta). They went under. There isn’t another electric dirt bike at that level (ready to race) for sale right now.
This Zero... I love it, but you can tell they started worrying about design too late. Theres no consistent line or shape hierarchy on their platform to work with. So the designer hides the powertrain and frame in one black mass, and focuses your eye on the bodywork. It was engineered, then designed. I’m surprised it’s…
Ugh come on Guzzi. New Le Mans or gtfo.
Could Zero please hire Alta’s design team?
This is prime Hipster Commenting.
Hopefully it looks as... good?

Are all people above 6' pussies?
Alta already built that bike. It’s a question of who is going to build it next.
Not hard, but it’s just as expensive as a 2002 now, so most people talk themselves into the BMW.
I mean, the Zero is NOT a looker. The original LiveWire prototypes have gorgeous lines/proportions. But even then, you could buy an Alta up to a couple months ago for 12K that looked like this:
And they killed Alta in the process. Alta was selling their bikes for 12K before closing shop. And they did it without compromising aesthetics and specs like this Harley. I mean look at the production bike next to the test mule above... they fucking blew all the styling goodwill of the original.
Engines from that era were engineered for oils with additives that modern oils have eliminated. You absolutely should not use the oil in this article, or any other standard modern oil for gasoline engines.
For the criminal. But the criminal isn’t gonna have public safety on his mind. You don’t think the police should make it a priority?
And if people stopped reproducing, there wouldn’t be anyone to break laws and run from cops.
As someone who has lived in many different cities in the US... California drivers are the best we have.
Sit in a barcelona chair next time you see one. There’s something perfectly basic and comfortable about it. Since the design is something like 90 years old you’ll notice them all over now that you’ve seen one.
