EV Chatter

Sadly ???- they do want 80k for that bike…

and of course that wasn’t directed at Scott, but that it wasn’t a deal breaker - because I wouldn't be making any kind of a deal at that price :rofl:

I share the skepticism about EV vehicles being any kind of answer ... to any question, really ... but I sure wish we would have figured out this climate change thing before the ash started raining down like snow every year.

Ha! You should try it here in Ohio. We are suffocatig here with all of the Canadian wildfire pollution in the air. What a freaking mess that is up there. I simply cannot believe the Canadian response is to just let it burn and burn and burn and burn and burn…. Meawhile the air quality here is absolutely horrible.
 
( I Am Joking)

BUT, But, but Scott… what about the little Children !
Dont you want them to have trees to burn in the bonfires to roast marshmallows !
( not really electric vehicle related, but I thought saving trees to Burn later would be Funny )

With all the smoke around here, I sure hope all the little Canuks are just roasting marshmallows to their little heart’s contentment! :p
 
Going Totally off topic:
- maybe Mother Earth is tired of us @#$&# up her @#$& and is trying to get rid of us.
Or
- this is just stuff that happens to rocks flying through Space - they change and evolve.

well, people are dying, and entire cities being evacuated. 14m hectares so far this year... I think Ohio is about 12m, just for scale.

I think we're trying pretty hard actually.
 
Back on track to the whacky world of EV Motorcycles…

Since this thread started the UK has decided to press ahead with a Fusion Reactor to make power

step.ukaea.uk

ccfe.ukaea.uk/programmes/step

I went to a lecture on the process and it's fascinating.
One of the plusses is that it's going in about 3 miles from me across the river Trent - so domestic heating from the spare energy is a possibility
Also apparently, there is very little radioactive waste and what there is has a short half life so will be stored on site before conventional recycling after about 10 years

It is a MASSIVE undertaking, and I hope that subsequent governments don't bottle out and pull the funding.
