"That's just like, your OPINION, Man!"

NEAR the "In 'n' Out Burger"

« on: May 14, 2016, 05:00:49 PM »

Went to the Victory / Indian Dealer to visit my personal mechanic and take possession of a Hunter TC 3250 Tar  Changer. It was very windy, cold and heavy rains on the way to Livonia.
Turns out they were having a factory DEMO Day, so I borrowed a helmet and jumped on a Victory Empulse electric motorcycle.


It was a blast to ride. 10.4 Kw Lithium Batt Pack. There is a clutch, but you don't have to use it.
There are 6 gears, but I only used 2,3,4. No noise, torque on demand.

Hunter TC / all car tar mounts done In-House from now on...

Yeah, I stolded it, and no ramps were sacrificed this time, but the unload was not without an "event" or two...   Lips Sealed
It seems this TC could not accommodate the new Indian wheels, Dick had to buy a new TC for that, my gain.  Cool

I'll bet you got a real "charge" out of putting that machine through a "battery" of maneuvers and comparing it's performance to the "current" murdersickle technology. Will there be much "resistance" to change do you think?

I hope I didn't come across as being "negative", people can become "polarized" by less than "positive" remarks about new ideas.  WE should try to "generate" more support for emerging technology.
