i would really like to see this in action and how strange would it be riding it as it would be silent hmmmm that would mean you would hear the wind whistle past instead of just feeling it wicked

Wow, only $70K

Nice that someone is doing it seriously though

People have been making fairly decent conversions of their own bikes for a while now, and fairly cheap too. Check out http://www.makezine.com or http://www.instructables.com and search for Electric Motorcycle to see many of them.

Teslar Motor's like the Famous Genius Man Nicola Teslar himself is so far ahead of his, its time. One of my all time favorite people.
