Sometimes you guys come off as cheese-eating effete elites from planet latte'... just because they ARE east-coast always-yelling douchebags (but may be nice guys underneath) and make UGG-LEE bikes doesn't make it a bad idea.
Even the super-duper future of Star Trek has a motorcycle going "chuff-chuff-chuff" as it goes down the road.

Holy Sh*t! What an awesome death trap! Imagine the splinters your groin would get after a low speed impact. The Alabama sign explains everything about that picture.
Screw helmet laws. If people want to take the risk, let them. It's better if they die anyways, because if they don't have healthcare, the hidden taxes (or possibly new public option) don't have to worry about losing any money.
@WarBUCKs: The problem is that they usually don't die. They end up crashing, killing off 90% of their brain, and existing in a taxpayer funded hospital bed in a permanent vegetative state until their body withers away and dies. If they had the decency to just die, helmet laws wouldn't be a problem.
@Tyson: As opposed to the uninsured drunk/high drivers who wreck out innocent families?
As an aside: ever notice that car insurance rates did NOT go down when mandatory seat belt laws as a primary offense were instated? Hmmm wonder what industry benefited the most from that law yet kept all the profits? Just saying...
@JalopyPixellatedViscera: "If you can read this shirt, I am an over-paid vice-president of marketing who just spent $100k of my company's money having some dilweeds build a theme chopper so my company can be "hip".
My buddy (a motorcycle mechanic) and I will be sitting drinking beers and watching the tube. I'll flip through the channels and stop on Orange County Floppers, and he'll LOSE it, screaming at the TV about adjustable wrenches and ratchets with rubber grips. It's hilarious.
To be honest I don’t think I would ride a chopper with Siemens written on the tank, this sounds like an excellent way to get creamed by a bunch of bikers, that is literally and/or figuratively.

How are they going to get an electric bike to appeal to geriatric Harley owners? Can you easily load it into the back of a pickup bed or load it onto a trailer for easy transport to parking lots where middle aged business managers grow facial hair for a week and bust out their black tee shirts and pretend to be Hells Angels for a week? How are they going to make it rattle apart and make it sounds like it constantly needs a tune-up?

Maybe they burn air?
