Thanks! Can-Am guy did a good job presenting.

Yup, he was great. It’s easy to edit when it’s 1 take and he went through most of the things I didn’t know including historical context and the novel features on the bike. I’m not always this lucky! 🤣

Weird choice. The trikes are ideal for electric, with the space and weight to carry decent batteries and the cooling system. With 2 wheel bikes you have to give up a lot of battery size to fit the cooling, which means you end up with a really fast charge, which sounds great, but the range is small, so the actual miles or km of range added per hour of charging isn't that good, and you need to find high power chargers close together. Or to put it another way, a battery that's half the size, but charges twice as fast isn't better, it's worse.

Yup, but I'd like to think that with each tech step the battery technology improves. And this just happens to be the latest.

Bring back the oil burners Can-Am.

[@PeakMotorcycles]

Everything else on the stand burns oil. Does that help?

[@1990-t1j]

EV not for me. Nick

Aye, of the ones I’ve tried, I did feel like they needed another evolution of battery technology. Though perhaps this is it? I’d still quite like to try one as they are improving all the time.
