Positive? Negative? I think this calls for a poll ... or a pole ...

That seems to have missed the mark on both Tesla's styling, and motorcycle's styling.

A centre of gravity well below the roll axis is bloody awful, quite frankly.

Ugh. There are a number of L'eccy bike manufacturers begging to use the Tesla charging system and battery tech but getting nowhere. And Tesla/E. Musk release this concept?:tugger: Fubar.

OMG. I've had an epiphany! In 100 years when petrol is just a memory and all vehicles are electric, what will Hollywood do to replace cars bursting into flames as they fly off cliffs etc. The sound of a short circuit sparking perhaps?

Pffft, don't be silly. The cars will just explode as usual... just like enormous explosions in space that don't need oxygen for the fire :brick:

I owned a Lotus car briefly. What a shoddy pile of shit that was, hopefully the bike is a bit better.

I thought they had released all the patents for those? Was that not actually what was done or are they looking to purchase prepared components?
