it looks huge. i wonder how heavy it is to get back off the ground?

Not to worry, that’s what the Hazmat Team is for.

Weight was my first thought too. Can't get their webpage to load though.

I also wonder how top-heavy it is.

when you get spattered all over the highway, you can rest easy that you went green

Can you lift it if it drops?

A serious question.

“top speed of 125 mph, a hand-of-God mid-range, and a range of 720 kilometers per charge (450 miles”

Don’t put 125 and 450 in same sentence, cmon.

If you do 125 you can’t get 450.

That’s one ugly ass bike. About as useless as a Boss Hoss but you can at least hear them 🤣🤣🤣

Did a quick search...no weight listed.

Headed to Sturgis again this year.. 4k mile round trip. Probably my last ride but pushing 70 I’ll have fun.

Never mind that, I want to know if it has a powered centerstand.

nb: My R75/7 is advanced as I want to get, thank you.

Cool black pipe on the side.

Is that the electron exhaust valve?

Are all the roads straight in Asia? Because this thing probably handles like a lumber truck.

From my motorcycling days I remember motorcycle tires tend to be made of softer rubber for better traction and didn’t get the mileage you got from a car tire. With this behemoth do you get a tire change everytime you stop for a charge?

I’d prefer one of those Street Glides they used in that fake biker series. Those were cool movies.

P.S. I frequently point out to people who call that show fake (and it was) that a number of r/l outlaw bikers were in that show regularly. Just like people call Th3 Godfather a fake mafia movie ...

Bikes need to make a little noise to help one clear off the road. If it doesn’t sound like a Harley can’t use it. Does it have a place to clip a playing card by the spokes?

Yes Thailand. A number car and motorcycle brands from other countries are doing some manufacturing in Thailand, and after years of that Thailand is developing Thai domestic brands. Thailand is already the fourth largest producer of motorcycles.

Meh. A Royal Enfield diesel would be more practical.

More importantly, how much does it weigh? That capacity battery must weigh much more than conventional bikes. Handling an 850-900 pound full dresser is pushing the limits but this thing will break your back and or arm.

125 mph top speed - my Hayabusa will do that in 3rd gear
