Maybe someday but not in the 6-9 months that they are claiming...
Once you go EV, gas is history!

The specs are not to be believed.  Certainly not at the price they are claiming.

I figure more like $50,000 USD to achieve those equipment specifications and performance in a low-volume motorcycle built by a company that doesn't exist yet.  These guys are tolling for investor dollars, IMHO.   ::)
