Yet another interesting concept that has made it to reality. But alas, like Harley it is VERY pricey, but this actually would save you money over the years, until battery replacement time, or motor brush renewal.

Last years video says it can recharge in one hour to 95% capacity, so drive it 140 miles (2.5 hours), stop take a break (1 hour), hit the road again, rinse repeat for eight hours and you might make it to 450 miles before a 9 hour day was up. And stop for the night for sleep and start again next day, it would take me about twice as long to get anywhere, but with no fuel costs it might be worth it.
And would anyone let me just plug in the bike for a hour? and not charge me? Say at a tom thumb and use the outside outlet?

I had a Yugo. Loved that car. Drive it like an italian sports car and it works great. They like high revs. Got 54mpg in town and over 70 on the highway. Never had a lick of trouble out of it.
