Tesla batteries are lithium ion or lifepo4, they won't have enough output in a small pack that will fit in a dirt bike. We're gonna need cobalt

Interesting article. If one of them can bring out a Varg competitor within a few months of my delivery date of March ‘23 I’ll be leaving my Stark deposit behind.
