    I think I'll wait until more big names delve into the electric world before I consider buying one, but this bike looks great! Do you think you'd get a pseudo-clutch bike over an automatic if one were available?

    • @jakeridesaway
      @jakeridesaway  2 роки тому +4

      It definitely got me excited! I'm not sure I would! I think it being automatic adds a lot to the unique experience of an electric bike... as much as I love shifting through gears, I don't think it would be as satisfying without an engine ;)

      This is a major technology shift. The big names are going to be behind the curve and will have to acquire some of these companies to stay ahead.

      @@bikesbeersbeats yeah, but the bigger companies will have the warranties and support to back you up, which is what I'm mostly concerned about. I don't want to sink $20k into a product that may or may not outlast the life of the company, and that may or may not be supported by any big name that acquires the original company

    There you go Jake, now all you gotta do is make your electric bike look like that! Do you know if the sound from that bike is made naturally from the drivetrain, or is it somehow created just for effect?

    • @jakeridesaway
      @jakeridesaway  2 роки тому +7

      Haha no amount of youtube videos could teach me how to make that! They actually have some kind of microphone on the drivetrain, run it through software for effect and modulation, and amplify it for an exaggerated sound that compliments the actually sound!

    Well..... ...... a 120 mile range with a 50 min 80% charge..... if you live in town and using this to and from work, plugging it in while at work it is terrific. I can see these catching on. The sound is .... futuristic. It sounds like something that belongs in a movie portraying the future. I like it. For the highway..... no way. 120 miles and you have to stop fo 50 plus min? How far can you go on a 80% charge? Someone do the math for me please, what's 80% of 120.... 95 miles? Then you have to stop for how many beers in an hour? I will be totally drunk by the end of the day. For the highway I will definitely keep my Fat Boy and Electra Glide. Thank you. Did he say 25 thousand to 50 thousand? Forget it, too rich for my blood.

    I hope the new electric motorbike is not noisy. In Asia combustion engine motorbikes are so noisy that you get headache hearing them everyday. Simply because the noise is coming from the combustion engine. But the motorbike you are testing is still noisy. Why? There is no combustion. Where is the noise coming from?

    $24,000 for that hunk of junk? Honda already has a great lineup of automatic motorcycles. I wonder how a Tarform battery will do in 10 years, i bet a replacement will cost $12,000. & where do you take it if you need help on a road trip? Gas prices are already good on a Moto, this company is trying to reinvent the wheel with a product that causes 4 times the carbon footprint than a regular engine. I'll pass, maybe Tesla can make a better one for half the price and itll still be a hunk of junk. Just a toy for rich celebrities
