BTW, if you think that an electric motorcycle is too environmentally friendly, you could get something like this  :o :

You know, on the same sort of topic.  I wonder why nobody has tried to make one with a rotary Wankel engine yet?  Maybe Harleys can stop bouncing all over the intersections for a change :)

Both Suzuki and Sach made production rotary-powered motorcycles during the mid-1970's. They were expensive, smoggy and complicated to maintain. Plus, they were a financial failure. FortNine reviewed the Sach version not too long ago.

MyFirstElectric:
Thanks @Richard230 and @DonTom.
7 EVs? That's crazy rich, I'd say. I congratulate you that it's all EVs. No more combustion. I wanted an EV since I saw my first one: it was  Lotus Tesla on the Sainsbury car park, charging its batteries on the newly installed, first, charger there. In ~2009 or so?

Tesla back then was not Tesla today. It tested electrical car concepts on the Lotus in the UK at the time.
The driver was not Elon though, no.  ;D

Maybe one day I make it to an EV as in cars. Will see. I think, the Tycan I would like.

Then, a lifetime later, I learned of Energica, made in Italy: https://www.energicamotor.com/us/, and wanted one also.  :)
Didn't get that either. Yet.  ;D

Now I urgently want to figure out where to buy / or how to build, a 72V 40Ah battery for my scooter/bike that I purchased at the start of the week. Any tips, hints, links, most welcome. Thanks.

Keep well.

Hmmm, including your names in my post doesn't seem to work like I thought it would.
