They're trying to do a "drive to survive" but with motorcycles I assume, which won't work imo. Motorcycle racing actually has exciting racing and very little drama compared to F1, which is a soap opera that just happens to take a place around some f1 cars.

They called it "MotoGP™ Unlimited" and not "Ride to Survive." Pathetic.

I don't understand it cause they could've just taken the original headlights off and it would look kind of nice. The effort and engineering they've done isn't poo poo-spec, either. Guy genuinely likes the look.

Unrelated, I didn't hate this despite some questionable decisions, which I think may be a first:

So we are watching a cheesy spy action movie (355) and there was a chase scene with someone on a bike. In the scene Jessica Chestain chases down a woman on a bike on foot… this is ludicrous but becomes more likely when you see the bike

https://en.vmotosoco.com/tcmax-overview/

So this company basically makes electric scooters with good looking body work and totally makes sense in the Parisian setting for the movie. They of course had to dub an in-line 4 engine noise over it, which I know happens all the time since modern bikes have to be pretty quiet. I wish they would just embrace the EV quietness, they could have just focused the sick burnout and moved on without the fake engine noise.

It's not like electrics don't make their own cool noises, in reality that signature VWEEEEEEEE as they accelerate is pretty quiet but there's no reason you couldn't louden it for a movie

A good example of this is in that Snake Eyes GI Joe movie. Actually scratch that, that movie isn't a good example of anything.

I would like to point out that vmoto has a scooter model named cux. The pronunciation of that depends how online you are I think.
