Nice idea but the things that put me off:
No engine noise
No gears
Price
Cost of filling up

As a lover of Old Bikes and the sound of the Combustion engine...It SCARES the Shit outta me, to think that 'maybe' in my lifetime, oil will cease to be available for the common man.
The re-interest of some fuels and technology that have been around for years, only concerns me which 'Fat-Cat' is going to control the over bloated price, of the 'Next' common fuel.
Im a fan of Hydrogen, because it goes Broom-Broom, but electricity is a great concept, more widely available, but only if able to be 'Alternatively' charged (Solar/Wind/etc?). In a time frame that is realistic. So theirs NO chance of anyone/group Monopolising.
Oh and a Realistic Bike purchase price too!!
But to have all that, its probably 10-15+yrs away, and all the conecting industries need to get mass produced, for an obtainable end price for the Common worker. Which historically, will take a while or Only when the absolute need arises (no fuel).
The market for the 'Mission' bike, imo would be the sorter person that would look High-end MV/Ducati/Bimota/etc. So a few years off for most??
I certainly would NOT turn away a Test-ride though.

Some facts about it incase you didnt watch it to the end..
Fully charged battery takes an hour // Fueling up takes a max of 10 mins with payment etc
Battery life 150 miles on motorways and about 250 in city use // Better miles on motorway and city (especially city, i do around 120 miles per full tank)
Personally I like the concept and definitely looks BEAST but the fact it costs so much + its an automatic I wouldn't buy it even if I was a millionaire.
