One hell of a ride.
Walking through the Triumph warehouse with one of their UK techs and there is a Rocket III Engine on a shipping palette.
'See that starter motor' he says - pointing to one of the few things still attached.

My zook starter motor prolly does too.
Most multi-pole brush elecky motors make a shit load of torque, that is marketing speak.

A somewhat meaningless comparison. It's an electric motor, they develop peak torque at stall. Torque developed is limited only by the point at which they burn out

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded
