| I'm not sure those are quite ready for prime-time but I'm eyeballing the HDT diesel bikes. |

Wow, those diesel KLRs put out some dismal performance...
:(
So much for ideal post apocalyptic transportation. |

| I remember reading of a hydrogen-cell powered motorcycle manufactured in the UK that was supposed to go on sale to the public in fall of 2007. I'm still waiting. It was a little pricey, but not unreasonable. Nice looking too. They were expecting eco-aware teens to flock to it rather than buy a fossil fuel powered bike. What happened? Did GM, Ford or ExxonMobil buy the patent and bury it like they've done so many times in the past? |
