This petrol price is making me consider selling my Grande i10 for an electric motorised road legal scooter (being able to do more than 60 km/h).....

TH;DR, have you considered abandoning the environment and getting an old Yamaha RD 350? :love:

I think the YouTube channel name is The Inja but he's done a few videos on his electric bike mods, more just interesting to see how the tech is coming along.
 
I blew a fork seal going over a speed bump at about 50 km/h. I had a taxi tailgating me and the road was in no condition to go faster on a bike. When I say tailgating, I mean less than a bike-length behind me. II brake checked him (just hard enough to activate the brake light, not to actually slow down at all) to try to get him to back off, but he closed the gap a bit. He was close enough that I only had to turn my head a few degrees to see him in my peripheral vision. Getting pushed off a bike (and then probably under the taxi) isn't something you're guaranteed to walk away from. In a car he might have just damaged the paintwork.

fuck i hate them more than anything on earth and they the only reason i wont daily a bike!

7 years ago sitting in the fast lane behind a taxi the spare wheel drops out, 1x Kawi Ninja trying to do a backflip off it = spine broken in 2 places!!
