To me its sad to see people succumb to scooters and say "i dont want a clutch"
Fine then, dont join the club of real motorbike riders. We wont nod to you when passing on the road. (All motorbike riders nod at eachother on the road at least in US)

The same reason his Avatar is angry and 50% of his threads are about being upset at the world?
I would probably be all of those things were I terrified of 'big bikes' and clutches too.

Electric bikes are ridiculously fast. No shifting, and instant power, it's amazing.
Check out dealerships in your area, and see if they do test rides. I had a chance to check these out on a demo day.

"Clutch" means manual where you have to shift and stuff right? Isn't that ancient technology at this point? Sincerely asking.
-------------------- Only hope can give rise to the emotion we call despair. But it is nearly impossible for a man to try to live without hope, so I guess that leaves Man no choice but to walk around with despair as his companion.

These are the same people who never mowed the lawn. I can't trust someone who never mowed the lawn.
-------------------- Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
