Moto Parilla
« on: August 12, 2019, 08:29:47 AM »
Anyone recall the Moto Parilla brand of 4-stroke 250cc Italian motorcycles that briefly entered the U.S. market during the early 1960's?  They were nice looking motorcycles and had decent performance for the day, but were outsold by the similar Ducati models and quickly faded from the scene.  Well Moto Parilla is back. At least in name:  https://electricmotorcycles.news/recipe-for-a-badass-all-terrain-electric-e-bike-moto-parilla/

current bikes: 2018 16.6 kWh Zero S, 2011 Royal Enfield Bullet 500 Classic, 2009 BMW F650GS, 2007 BMW R1200R, 2005 Triumph T-100 Bonneville, 2002 Yamaha FZ1 and a 1978 Honda Kick 'N Go Senior.

They sure do a good job of hiding the battery pack.   ::)  I think pedals might be a good option on the Parilla.    ;)
