I've ridden one. He's my take.
I'm really excited about :
1.Solar for my home
2.Owning a Tesla
3.Electric bikes
However, none of them is viable yet.
1.Solar generates about a 5% return on your investment. It's better for me to invest my money elsewhere now. In 6 yrs. it should make so much sense it's mandatory.
2. Telsa makes such a kick but car but its just a toy. I drive so many places that are out of its charge range it just isnt viable. But battery technology will get to where they can go 500 miles on a charge and now were talking!
3. Trust me on this....you've never ridden a bike that has as much amazing torque and power curve as an Alta. It also feel like a 125 weight wise (even though its heavy) It carves better than a Suzuki! But it's a toy too. I get 28 min.s out of a battery charge is a racing environment. A WORCS race is 1 hr. long!!!!!! But...batteries will get better. volume will go up and prices will go down. It will get to where you're at a competitive disadvantage to not be on one. Not yet though.
