Hehe, I "got it" once Dave, I owned and raced many petrol bikes, and even ran a motorcycle workshop for 5 years. i loved the song of a good 2 stroke near the redline, and savoured the sticky scent of Castrol gently fried in my RGV500 above all other smells.
I can honestly say that since I went I went electric I don't enjoy riding petrol bikes anymore. They are noisy and smelly, hot and breakdown constantly. They are harder to control also, need lubricating in so many orifices that sooner or later you are bound to miss one and regret it. Clutches and gearboxes a nessecity, along with all the associated problems and extra driving stress...
Electric bikes may not be quite all they need to be yet, but they are getting there.
At the moment I am the only one here who has tried both kinds of bikes....i hope that events like this will change that!
Anyone wishing to ride a Jozzbike during the TT meet week form an orderly que behind MV!
