If they can reach their target pricing, AND make the thing not look like I'd be riding on a camel, I'd get it ASAP!

Well, the honda civic hybrid now looks like a regular car...So I would expect these to follow suit in the near future and just look like your average street bike....

And if they could reach their target pricing they will make tons of money...'cause everyone will buy one once gas reaches 100 bucks a gallon like all the "experts" say it is.

I'd like to see this hybrid technology combined w/ direct/semidirect injection 2-stroke.

Isn't one of the best parts of riding hearing the engine and you race up and down the gears??????

The first time I rode in a hybrid car, it was just wierd not hearing the engine, but a humming whine instead (or maybe that was the driver)

I believe you on that point. They will suredly (sp?) save money down the road (i.e. buy one later, not now)...

What's your reasoning JWF? (I care :D )
