Z3n posted:It makes me a little sad to see that it's slower than an SV in the straights. I know that they're not wringing it's neck and all, it being a one off prototype, but I was hoping to see a solid 120-130 down the straights. I wonder if it starts to run into power dropping off due to the gearing/total RPM at that speed. All that is why I think why motorcycles will be the last bastion of gas powered vehicle when all cars are hybrids/electrics and stuff. Not to say that hybrid/ev cars can't be quick(look at porsche and tesla) but there's something magical about hearing the roar of an engine. Having said all that, the bike is super neat though.

I didn't read the previous report but a couple people mentioned a "fiasco" with it. This one is pretty much up to date as of yesterday(typing it up as they're going along) and looks like they're funding everything themselves - Maybe Fishfund guy learned his lesson who knows. And i've read the Angola report. The update when they are riding on the beach with high tide coming in and the bikes breaking down was pretty intense, was definitely on the edge of my keyboard

Coydog posted:The TU250x is literally the bike Fortnine says "they really need to make now" in this video. They just need to sell it for 2-3k new, instead of 5k new. It's a "classic" styled bike that all the hipsters should be buying instead of nightmare bikes from the 70s. I can dig the look, too, and feel it covers the starter bike needs of most riders, and would make a good general purpose bike. If they could sell it for like 3500 even to undercut the Duke 200, it would great. But there's way too much really good competition at 5k.

Can't stand getting a thumbs up from every person you pass on the road and constantly having pictures taken of your bike every place you park it? Keep scrolling, this bike isn't for you. Looks like a road bicycle would have more tire suspension than this.

timn posted:Reminds me of a funny anecdote when I was on vacation with some friends in another city. None of them are automotively inclined in the slightest, but they know I ride. As we were walking down the street from the place we were staying at, a Ducati rides by us. After its gone, one of my friends leans over and says to me in a hushed tone, "Why does it sound like that?" Did you tell them there is a tambourine, that's an integral part of how the transmission works?
