Next time I put a bike on a stand I'm going to tell people it's in case it runs wild.

With electric motorcycles the motors and controllers need to be in synch/commissioned. If the bike's programming is hosed up the motor can go into runaway and destroy itself. Better to have the rear wheel off the ground in that case. Sagebrush posted:Spent $150,000 on motorcycles, begs for a $150 rear stand I found out it was actually $250,000.

Please tell me "pet" in that word salad is a bike and not an actual dog or whatever other animal that definitely doesn't deserve this poo poo.

Ok yep, this dude has some poo poo going on. “My pet?” Just say what it is. Why was it lost at a race track to begin with? Your pet was at the track for two weeks? Why did you trespass instead of working with track security?

At first this was funny, then I thought he was doing a bit, but now I'm frightened of this person. Maybe the "pet" was a tamagotchi? Coydog fucked around with this message at 15:49 on Mar 1, 2021 |

Let's recap: - Blew through $250k inheritance to purchase 2 LiveWires (at seemingly 150% markup apiece?), 1 Zero SR/S, 1 Lightning LS-218, and 4 Energica powertrains with the intent of promoting electric racing - Crashed both LiveWires and hospitalized himself. Both LiveWires and EVR L LC were repaired. - Fails racing instruction and gets banned from basically the only electric racing league, AHRMA Formula Lightning - Gets banned from Roebling Road in conjunction with AHRMA ban - Gets banned from Jennings raceway for.... trying to find his pet - Is broke - Has no recent work history and, as such, is unable to apply for loans - Is trying to start an E-Sports team - Is trying to make an album about 20 "racing themed" songs - Is attempting to chop up the 4 Energicas and turn them into the ever-popular 3 wheeled racing league which he will be calling B.E.A.R.S. - Just needs $2M to buy and develop this plot of land for his racing league. Has vision.

He's got scope creep like crazy and will probably turn into a literal scope creep from some race tower soon.

Again, I think this is classic bipolar disorder mania. It's like when Kanye West, who famously suffers from that condition, goes to Jackson Hole and creates an entire new album from scratch in a week, except this guy doesn't have the resources to pull off something like that so he's just manic about all the awesome things he wants to do. Look for him to disappear from Facebook completely in a couple of weeks when he hits the depressive part of the cycle. Even the buying cycle, where something appeals to you and you just dive in 1000% immediately and buy EVERYTHING, is spot on. My mom had bipolar disorder and would do the exact same sort of thing. Mom: I was at the bakery today and they have this bread, it's the most incredible bread you've ever had, it's just unbelievable, I bought 12 loaves of it here take one it's so good, you've never had bread like this before Mom: I had this GREAT idea that we're gonna have a SOLAR HEATED POOL in the back yard and it's just going to be the best, it'll be amazing, so I've already bought 4000 dollars worth of solar heating tubes on the credit card and they're in the back of the van right now!!! Mom: I was in the subway today and this guy with a cart was selling these INCREDIBLE pencil sharpeners shaped like ducks and I just LOVE them all and what we're going to do is set up a boutique of our own so I bought his entire stock! I've got 400 of them in the van right now!!! Evr L Lc: I got the idea to race electric motorcycles and I bought FOUR of them and FOUR MORE FOR PARTS and I'm going to create an ELECTRIC RACING LEAGUE and build ELECTRIC SIDECAR RIGS and we're gonna be even better than AHRMA and this is gonna be so good everyone will want to get in on it and I can't believe you aren't 1000% behind this like I am, man, it's the best loving idea I've ever had, anyone has ever had, oh AND I'm making an album of songs about motorcycle racing AND an e-sports league AND... Like the only other thing that does this to you is cocaine or meth and he doesn't have a nosebleed or holes in his face so I literally can't see how it's anything else.

Apropos of nothing, our province has been on slowly-easing-lockdown since November. We're trying to be very good about not going over to see my parents, since my wife works in a public-facing job and I work in a shop with more than a few people who don't get the whole "communicable disease" idea, and my mom is p vulnerable to such as respiratory viruses. But my bike is parked at their garage for the winter and i haven't seen it in four goddamned months I miss my friggin bike At least I can do zoom meetings with my folks

Is the pet the energicas that he converted to three wheelers? Possibly he was picking up the parts that fell off.

So in other drama I got into it with the CEO of Lightning last night on a Facebook rant. He threw accusations around about us trying to destroy him and his company and said he was on a 60 day lead time for delivering his (Premium) Carbon Edition Strike motorcycles. I know for a fact that local owner, Jeff, got an under-specced bike he paid full price for in December of 2019 and has been unable to get made whole. Further, Jeff told me Lightning has been ignoring his emails. Jeff is very much a private person and doesn't go for confrontation much, but this is how the night ended.

all this has taught me that my current stance on electric anything is the correct one. wait for the real vehicle manufacturers to start making them and gently caress all these circus companies (tesla included)

That actually owns. It'd be great to have an industry standard for swappable batteries especially backed by a deep pocketed and established manufacturers like Honda and Yamaha. Not so much you KTM and Piaggio.

Yeah, when we can have Hondas and Yamahas with battery packs that can swap like power tools, I'll be all over an electric dirt bike.
