don't be so negative, but it must be one of the ugliest. imagine a low centre of gravity.

Wonder if it'll pull like the freight train it looks.

**Tazz** · 3rd August 2015, 16:42

Looks no worse than one of those massive V8 bikes to me.

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?

Fubar.

Can it fly to Mars?

**Oakie** · 3rd August 2015, 19:19

Given that it's an electrickery bike ... I don't think it looks that bad

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?
