• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Can-Am didn't get the memo I guess - 2023 Electric Motorcycles release....

A Very Good Question

:popcorn:..YES, a very good question but I have learned that you will Never get a good answer.

Stay Healthy and Be Safe. ....:thumbup:
 
There's probably some gigantic undisclo$ed incentive to build these things that nobody wants. Sure as hell wouldn't be based on any credible evidence. You can pretty much reverse everything now to get the true picture.:duh:
 
Can't help but wonder what kind of range the street edition will have and how long a wait while charging. It seems to me that going green is going to make you add time to your scheduled trips (days not hours). Not really a touring feature. I'll stay with my fossil fuel Thank you.
 
So true Cobwebs, who buys these things? How will the builder brands make money? What am I missing in the common sense department?
 
A commuter two wheel motorcycle may very well have a useful place in their product range, as would an electric bike kept adjacent to nearby mountains and hills. It's also a place to start so we can eventually have the infrastructure to make electrical practical for riding several hundred miles in a day, and having the range and access to charging that currently exists for gasoline. This isn't for us, at least not yet, and at least for a while.

I have a home that runs on solar, and I pay very little for electricity. We can certainly make more of our energy clean, and they are working on batteries that will be better for the environment. None of this is going to be ideal in the early adoption range, or suitable for every owner, but I think it's a smart place to re-enter a market that where the buyers are aging out and where something newer like this could appeal to a younger audience.

You are being entirely too reasonable for this facetious thread. :thumbup:

Aww, don't do that!

Pretty much all the same points I was going to make. I too have a solar home and autos. While these relatively short-range e-bikes aren't for me, I'm sure the tech will come along.

Short-range=greater control.
 
Wondering how these smart meters will play out in the future in regards to power distribution and power shortages?

The issue isn't that electricity doesn't have a place, its that it is being forced upon us without the infrastructure first. Newsom it seems has reversed course about Diablo, which should have never been on the closure list to begin with. Europe knows that in order to supply the needed electricity, nuclear had to be the main source, since solar, wind, etc wont support all the usage. We need a few more nuclear plants in the US.

Name one issue that has been caused by the general populace.
 
CA has only one nuclear power plant that provides less than 10% of CAs power, wind and solar provides more than 22% of CAs power, Gas about 37%, and so on.
