Seeing more and more articles on electric bikes these days. I still reckon I'd miss an infernal [sic] combustion engine and they still don't have nearly the range I'd need but I think that they'll slowly start to make inroads into the commuter market. The MotoCzysz effort at the Isle of Man was certainly impressive and the below effort (the Brammo Empulse) is starting to get closer to what motorcyclists are looking for.

Hi Bandit Rider. The trouble with electric bikes is the amount of power you would waste in powering the CD player and bloody great speaker to provide the V-Twin or Screamer soundtrack would render the bike "un-economical"
