It's done and ready in our unlisted section. I'm trying to get clarification from Stark if we can just publish now since Sleeter broke the embargo. If not, it'll be midnight.

summarize please?
Just listened to the podcast. Take it for what it is...but Sleeter says this is a bigger deal than Henry racing the first 4-stroke. To say Sleeter was impressed with this motorcycle would be an understatement.

I'm excited to see all the big outlets write-ups, videos, reviews, etc.

Michael- what would the ramifications be for Sleeter now for breaking the embargo?

And will he have benefitted hugely by breaking it?
Lots more website hits? What would he have earned out if that, realistically?

I don't think he broke it intentionally. I would guess he didn't read the embargo terms properly.

He pulled it down per their request from what I can tell. So probably just an ole slap of the wrist, please don't do it again.

dunno. when you posted that he took it down, I clicked the link and it was up still.

he is very hot on the bike and had nothing but positive things to say. Strangely, the ONE thing he couldn't answer was "How long does the battery last?" as he said basically "I dunno. Didn't ask and forgot to check my usage". Oh well.

IIRC I heard him say he got 35 minutes at one level below max power.

I have some rough info on that but have to save it for the Embargo time...

I can give you the scoop: everybody -and I mean everybody- has been impressed by the bike.

I didn’t get to attend the test on Vital’s behalf, so sadly I don’t have an opinion on riding. Klinger went on our behalf.

No holeshot in Europe, everybody played the game. Now i can personnaly say it : bike is amazing, much better than what i was expecting. What about you ML ? And it was a pleasure to reconnect with Seb Tortelli. We shared some gate drops before he went to US.
