lol you guys should youtube lithium polymer batts exploding, not a pretty site. Id be down with electric cars if, I got hit by a 3/4 ton truck(most common thing on the road here) I wouldnt blow up and end in a firey death trap burning at over 2000 degrees, A batt could LiPo batt could survive -40c, wasnt completetly useless if overcharged or discharged, and didnt cost so much(over discharge will cost you about 15-30K in new batts). Oh and LiPo batt packs are only 100% toxic to the enviroment. Id like to see figures to see if in its lifetime an electric car causes more or less harm to the planet than a similar sized car with a good clean burning gas or diesel engine.

Ah, no, it is aftermarket, but still available. Not putting one in either, my wife only gets to drive IN the car, not actualy drive it.
Hell, I wouldn't trust her road sense on a bicycle, much less a 36 year old rear wheel drive.

Dang I thought they were stock lmao. The weather is PERFECT today, a little wind sure but it's warmer than usual feels like mid 40's and sunny. Went out for a drive with the windows down for the second time and it's becoming more frequent. Spring is coming! WOOOO!
Why won't you put it in? I'm a huge fan of irony and it would be hilarious to have a beefed up bug with the flower inside
An example would be me and a friend of mine rode 50cc tiny ass pocket bikes, they're about as tall as our shins, to a biker bar and parked em next to the Harleys. A lot of them actually got a kick out of it and of course they were all really friendly, some even took pictures lol. The food was awesome too

I know right!? I know for a fact if you do something really out there like that, you'll get more attention than the suped up flashy cars. We do car shows around here as fundraisers a lot and once in a while someone comes with this beat to hell bike or car just as a joke, and it becomes the life of the party getting all the attention. One guy actually destroyed some cheap car with a sledgehammer, rusted it on purpose, tore up the interior and had it on donuts with smashed windows and ran it in the show. More pictures were taken of that car than the actual winners and of course he got recognition at the end of the day
Heres another example. It's all about street cred

lol nooo why would you want a slower and uglier bike???sorry, zx14 all the way
also what is as fast as the clappers? Never heard that phrase lol

pretty sure zx14 is faster, at least they are the same cc, and I personally like the look of the kawasaki more than the hayabusa. I hate the hayabusa's ass. Top speed they are the same because of laws put in place on the manufacturers for the two bikes. Both bikes have been fighting over the title of fastest for years now so I'm not sure who's winning at this point because they keep coming out with new versions. The zx14 was in the lead last I checked but that was a couple years ago.
here seems to be the most up to date, at least for a straight line

the 14 has more CC's and is STILL slower. ive seen many many races between the 2 bikes and the busa always wins. the busa was built to be a factory race bike ready for the track out of the box. the 14 was cheaply built to beat the busa and still cant.
