Title: NewZeroland is a troll! I bet he got you too though.

That jerk! I thought he was electric to the end! Actually, if you watch to the end, you'll see that I am totally being overdramatic, but props to sam for getting a new bike!

Well, since we got a glance at it before...

I thought for a moment he got a white ghost, which would've been a redirect.

We have a gas and an eleectric because of the small advantages he mentions there (being able to fuel and range on a tank and seat is automatically warm).  So for a moment I thought he was just waiting for his dream bike to come in.

He did go on about six minutes about it...

Why would you think that?  There are many places where we cannot go on an electric motorcycle  (yet, even here in CA!) and I would think NZ would have that problem as well.

That's why, like NewZeroLand, I pre-ordered a Cybertruck ^-^  That'll patch those gaps, at least for me.

Crissa, NICE!!!!  The whole idea of that truck is amazing and I can't freakin wait for it.

And to everybody watching, I'm really blown away by the response today!  It's overwhelming that people even follow my channel, so this was huge, and I'm super excited to get more seat time on the Ego and shoot a whole bunch of cool videos.  I feel like the bike won't let me shoot uncool videos  ;D

It is the bike that'll do that extra leg-stretching you keep trying to do, Sam!

Tho it won't like when you go commando at the patchwork charging infrastructure you like to visit or to do any of the trail stuff.  ^-^  They are so totally a freeway bike.

Keep us updated on the differences you find in maintenance, too.

The Cybertruck will be a stretch for our budget, but our current car will be ten years old at that point and near replacement per our norma schedule.  We'd like something smaller, but right now I think part of the thing is to show there's demand.  And we need something that can carry our bikes!

True that.. maintenance will be a thing now, I guess  ;D The first service is at 600 miles and I rode the entire 600 miles in the first weekend lol.  Just waiting for the service kit to arrive to pull the bike apart.

The whole idea of charging your electric bikes up while you haul them to the race track in your electric truck is a fantasy reality that I can't wait for!!
