eRockit
« on: May 18, 2020, 09:11:12 AM »
I saw this new motorcycle concept this morning and it's styling kind of reminded me of the Enertia.  Regarding its idea of replacing the hand throttle with bicycle pedals, that seems to me to be a solution in search of a problem. Especially on a vehicle that can travel at highway speeds.   ::)

Wow... the video is worth watching. Can't imagine someone pedaling on the highway, but there you have it.  I agree with you that there are some styling similarities with the Enertia.

Thanks for sharing the video.  The pedals and bicycle type seat are definitely different.  Time will tell if there is a market for something like this.

I also agree with it looking similar to the Enertia.

Oh yeah I saw this on Facebook that's the first thing I thought when I saw it looks like an Enertia.
