Pushbike style

Not motorcycle related but I love the look. I'm not so sure about the practicality of the machine.

...probably more practical than a Fat Boy or a Hayabusa...

I've got one of these:http://bofeilinz.com/bofeili-sport-275.html Shit loads of fun but buzzing along at over 40kph I do wonder about the protective value of lycra seeing as I'm ATGATT on the Strom.

Your bike with the mid mounted motor looks like it would be better balanced than the French made bike in the local shop. It has the rear hub drive motor. Its top speed is 25kph but certainly looks good and comes with a solidly made carrier. The local dealer reckons between 50 and 70k between charge ups.

electric motor is still motor. So IS motorbike related.

That said. Meh.

May I enquire what you're doing in lycra on that thing? It can't be anything to do with riding; is it some weird fetish?

Millions of Dutch people pedal their cycles dressed in street clothes, so wearing lycra on a machine with an engine just seems so very strange.

I'm not Dutch, I can't get the rubber suit with the nipple holes and willie pipe so went for the Lycra, saves my nuts hanging out the side (don't ask). I admit to a level of deviancy but this KB after all, I feel at home here.

Took an electric bike for a ride this morning. It was bloody neat. On only 1/3rd power it was almost pushing me along. No strain on the pedals. Might be my next toy.
