    hi everyone i just had a thought if all two wheels turn to being powered by electricity in the future like the scooters available in china, will the 16 year olds who once rode 50cc 2 stroke scooters become electritians instead of petrol/piston heads as tuning would be hopping up batteries and electical trickery to bypass the legal speed limit for 16 year olds, whereas for the timebeing its still about rebuilding engines fitting big bore pistons and exhausts?


    I for one will always be a piston head no matter how high the costs of running go in the future perhaps in 50 odd years i'll be the old man who still talks about the days when combustion engines werent something of the past

    i do however like the design on the E-Schwalbe supposedly can do 110kmh on one charge if so seems quite a alternative to me the review is quite in depth but it is in German
