It’s the reduction in drag that the engine must endure that gives you more power ! I have installed a Bosch electric water pump on my 2021 WR250F and removed the impeller and driveshaft gear . It works .

I missed the show :(
Did a bald guy come up with the E WTR pumps?

Personally, I think electric water pumps would be a great thing for a cheap/easy fix for older bikes that have a corroded housing, but outside of that they probably don't have that big of a place

Or, like at 3 minutes, being able to control more parts of a fancy new tech bike

Electric for all pumps! Why run it off the motor? Cars have been doing this for years for efficiency.

LOL!! How about these goofballs take the money for the electric water pump and and take your riding class instead to go faster.
