Quantya so far). You see, I miss the<br />
noise and the sheer engagement you<br />
get with internal combustion engines<br />
just a little too much to want to engage<br />
in the electric motorcycle at this time.<br />
And frankly, like many I suspect, I<br />
feel there are a whole bunch of bigtime<br />
global polluters that need sorting<br />
before we start picking on small-fry<br />
offenders like motorcycles. So electric<br />
motorcycles – I’ve yet to be converted.<br />

enhances the cycling experience,<br />
assisting rather than taking over. And<br />
how much it assists, that’s up to you<br />

boost you employ the shorter the<br />
battery life will be. But that said, with a<br />
630wh rating, this battery has more life<br />
