Actually i think electirc motorcycles could be one thing that might actually work, batteries would last alot longer not pulling 3000 pounds of horseshit, and motorcycles are small enough that they could smalelr packs with decent charnging times.

Holy shit that was fast.

Into a minivan no less... :/

Neat concept, though it probably needs some more safety designed into it before something like that would be more common. Any range info on that bike?

"KillaBike?" What a terrible name. This is why hiring a marketing person is worth your while folks.
