Honda made a modern retro racer in the late 90’s called the dream 50 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_AC15  Looks like you can get an imported one for $6k https://sodo-moto.com/listings/honda-dream50-5/ Beve Stuscemi fucked around with this message at 15:16 on Feb 5, 2023 |

The problem for me is that I have a very strong mental price anchor. I wouldn't buy an ebike for more than $2000 because that's motorcycle territory for me. $3k for 250 cc, $5k for 500cc, and $10k for hypernaked, supersport. So $15K for a 450 seems bonkers, no matter how pretty the bike. For the same reason, I can't bring myself to buy a super cub, because it would be more expensive than my current bike. Admittedly, this is not completely rational. Also, I heard Leno got hurt again?

I remember the steam engine explosion and then only recently heard about the parking lot wire thing. Didn't realize it was a few weeks ago.
