Thanks for posting the details. Looks awesome!

I see "check out" does that mean ride or at least watch someone else ride?

[mistasam]

Someone shoot video!!

"the most affordable premium electric motorcycle available today"

Not yet it aint, and I won't believe it till I see it. No updates whatsoever on their website makes me wonder.

See it Saturday! I actually rode it a few months ago, not production ready yet.
Am I going to see any of you guys on Saturday?

I have really wanted to see something new from Lightning, and they have seemed so elusive, but my recent crash is keeping me at home. Take a bunch of photos and ask pointed questions, please.

[ButchtheBARFdude]

There will be a formal presentation at 1pm, indoors. They have air conditioning.

If you have any specific questions, post them here and I will ask them.

Looks like you may be the first and only human being so far to ever admit seeing a Strike ride or have ridden one. Three questions, why have you been silent until now? Can you please give us a ride report and details? Finally, any photos or video to show us this historic event?

I must admit this announcement concerns me. Previous short announcement said there would be public rides of the Strike. This announcement no longer says that.

I try to share all the important moto stuff I can with our community, but there are too many venues to get them all. Post 152 here https://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=533363&page=11 is the Strike I rode around the block. It was not a proper test ride. You need a racetrack for that.

I really focus on OHV access issues because the dirtbike community is ill informed. SB249 would have destroyed our SVRA system. SB767, currently in the assembly, seriously threatens our State Parks. I still mean to hassle Kamila Harris about Clear Creek. It’s a time thing, man...

[ButchtheBARFdude]

Come to think of it, I do not know to what extent the shop is air conditioned. The conference room is. The bathrooms are.

[MVetter]

Well? How'd it go?

[ButchtheBARFdude]

warm, but pretty awesome. Several Strikes were there. And other stuff, And yum food. and... https://www.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=535321&page=3
I cant possibly move the pics to here. There will be more coming up on BARF.
Big fun.

That's it?
A couple bikes behind a plastic chain?

This isn't a concept bike show they were supposed to be delivering bikes to customers in July.
