Jay Leno thinks about electric motorcycles
« on: October 09, 2025, 07:50:20 PM »

Jay Leno thinks about electric bikes, but those thoughts only last for the first minute  ::) , before he goes around his motorcycle collection reviewing old gas-powered bikes in this 6-minute long video:

Nobody doesn't like the internal combustion engine, just doesn't like the fuel that it burns
While no wrong this makes it sound like the only appeal of electric is that it's "cleaner", that there's no reason to prefer it over ICE. As much as I love the sound, smell, and vibration of a gas engine and I appreciate the mechanics of them just like a mechanic watch, even if synthetic fuels became viable and widespread I would rather be riding an electric bike most of the time. I'm more interested in solving the issues with electric, bringing down the price, increasing range and charging speeds.
