Fair point. My counter argument to that would be how I was given a website to a zoo with tame wolves you could take your picture with as knowledge of and experience with wolves. This is just as harmful for the other sides argument in my opinion as it is not seated in reality at all. Wolves are not something from a Disney movie that you snuggle and take pictures with. They are one of the most ruthless apex predators on the planet, to justify your argument of wanting them on the landscape by using fairy tales does nothing for...

Gary Jones won 4 250 championships

I've seen the "quieter bike" argument since the 70's when we didn't have silencers. Then we got the "Less sound = More ground" movement to appease the enviro freaks. And you know what happened? They started attacking us on other fronts. Erosion, dust, traffic, endangered species, injuries, the list goes on and on. You can NEVER make them happy by appeasement. Ask the guys that have eMTB about the pushback they are getting. We'll get it too. Electric motocrossers are still motorcycles and they will have to be sold on their own merits. And they will always face the same...
