Hi All-

The first FReeper to mention the sophomoric and trite term "donorcycles" following this post is a nitwit.

Most of the scooters in China are now electric. There are thousands of them on the city streets every day. City's even have special lanes for them.

The Chinese are clearly looking ahead while solving their transportation and environemental issues.

30 miles. That's a one way trip to work for me. If I leave my truck at home that bike would pay for itself in about 20 months. I've ridden the Aprilia RS 50 with the 2 stroke motor in it....once ya get done rowing the shifter the bike is an absolute hoot. I've also ridden the Aprilia RS 250 which is comparable to this bike in weight...another fun bike to ride. GP 125 cc and 250 cc bikes have higher cornering speeds than either GP-1 bikes or WSB bikes. The Debri, like the Aprilia uses top level components.

Best not to think about the pollutants produced by the manufacturers of the bike and the solar array...

When you end up pumping the chest of someone to keep him alive you wonder if it was worth it.

What a neat toy!

But it only runs for 30 minutes...

I'd like to know the cost of the electricity to charge the thing up, so I can calculate whether it's worth it gaswize.

Now if we can get Dean Kaman to build a 60MPH Segway, I'd beta it.

Longer-lasting batteries? At what weight???

Toys are just, toys.

its gas engine replaced with a battery

I think it is more likely that the engine was replaced with a motor. In any event, it sounds like transportation that could only be enjoyed by a true weenie.
