The other thing I was looking at is one of the new electric dirt bikes coming out. They're pretty damn light, low maintenance and it would be cool to not make so much noise and they're not crazy expensive. Just can't go super far.

I converted to an E bike with a front wheel drive it go's 25mph but you have to peddle up hills the battery lasted 12 miles. After that you have the weight of the battery motor plus resistance and fat tires working against you and it was a sob to peddle motor less.

Pisses me off when you type and lose it all time is valuable 💯 I was saying I'm sure E bikes have come along way since my conversion. I have only used mine a few times don't need it in town I'm going to try and sell it for $1500 with the extras I have installed but it's great for getting to the back of the lake shore fishing a small gas power generator will recharge it while camping. I converted it just for the serras and off-road use only I would rather have a regular mountain bike or a motorcycle for the street.
I don't have alot of years left so I don't care about gas
My klr650 get 50mpg and I imagine a tw200 gets 60 or 70mpg and as far as noise I want black bears 🐻 and mountain lions 🦁 know I'm coming as far as bigfoot it already knows I'm there no matter what I'm riding.
Tight lines amgio 😎

Has custom mud fenders, with Malcolm Smith mud flap locking thief proof battery
And a no slide seat stop, when you have weight on the rack. Kept in doors originally owner ever since I bought it.

I probably can't even get my money out of it...let alone all the labor doing the conversion and extras.
So I might as well keep it...
In case it might be my last transportation you never know what can happen.

I can use it to escape the sanitarium, if I get put in one
