It seems to me that a regular bicycle plus one of those little lightweight gasoline motors that attaches to the bicycle's frame above the rear wheel and can drive the rear wheel would be an equally effective solution, more than 10-fold less expensive, and could readily use existing technology. -- Marc Illsley Clarke, Kawasaki KLR650 A12, Loveland, Colorado, USA Date: Tue, 04 Dec 2001 00:10:59 -0000 From: "Bill " Subject: Re: nklr "ginger invention" better than bicycles/motorcycles? The top speed is 12 mph and the battery is supposed to last 17 miles. I'm far from being in perfect physical condition but I can ride a bicycle 17 miles at 12 mph. Even a little further. 12 mph is slow pace on a bike. It's for those of us who need a motorized cart to shop, and, or, those of us who have the money for expensive novelties. Sudo training wheels for the balance impaired. Some might say it's just another invention to make our society a bit fatter. It's certainly not revolutionary by any means.

The outside shell is not waterproof at all Hmmmm...that's funny, when I called Hein Gericke they told me ot should be waterproof with or without the liner. That was actually my first thought when I got wet. It still doesn't help though because for my hot-blooded nature, if it's cold enough to want the liner, it ain't gonna be rain falling from the clouds!!! Oh wll, we'll see what happens when they get my jacket and letter. dat brooklyn bum ______________________________________________________________________________ Send a friend your Buddy Card and stay in contact always with Excite Messenger http://messenger.excite.com
