Anyone know of an Electric Motorbike ??

[Mike Werner]

Being ecological minded, and looking for a run-around bike that'll go off-road, I'm looking for an electrical motorbike...

The only one I can find is the Blade, which on its own doesn't look half bad !! expensive, but could be worth it for me since it's illegal to go off-road here in Normandy so often have to sneak into a forest hiker path to get my kicks with the GS, but with an electrical bike, no one would hear me!!!!

So, anyone know of some offroad bike that's electrical ???

Thunderstruck Jackal for offroad:-

Or go the whole hog with the 98 mph Thunderstruck Revolt:-

yeah I saw that one in my search, but doesn't really look offroad to me, if you compare it to the Blade.... wouldn't want any GSer to see me on one of those..

I was going to go around the world on an electric motorbike, but I couldn't afford the extension lead

or the truck to carry the batteries...

Why not try solar panels, they're pretty effective these days

Ah, but if you hook them up to the batteries in the trailor you'll be towing you should be able to get through before they go flat.
