heh the etc you missed was the electric car. ICE engines killed those about the same time as steam. amazing how failed technologies keep popping up as "new" ones. can we see a diesel sports bike instead please? maybe all aluminum block and head with a roots blower and ceramic pistons? might need an extra wide box to make it work though. eight speed? dunno. be nasty though

Whoa there buckaroo! There was never a viable production electric car. Horses,steam,ETC was used for centuries to move people from one place to another...although electricity is/was used in cable cars/trolleys...hmmm. Like I said,as long as they can make it handle and go like my bike,I don't care if they use two fucking hamsters on crack for power!

Um who you talkin' too son? I saw a demonstration where they ran an APC on sour milk,used oil,alcohol,etc for hours! My ex's dad makes bio diesel in his garage.

You probably already know but, they have made diesel bikes for many years. I have looked into it many times but have never followed through. I found a link once upon a time where one was getting something like 125 MPG but top speed was only like 60. I'd give up a massive top speed for mileage like that. It would only take me 2 gallons of fuel to run all week to work and back.
