I got a battery powered chainsaw a few years ago. Love it. As long as I had four batteries so I could change and charge i was able to just keep cutting. Beat mixing oil and gas …..

But unless they can quick sharge don’t see any vehicle being viable. Better acceleration but range is problem.

“Why that is not considered noise pollution is beyond me.”

Too many cops like to ride motorcycles, that’s why.

Not much space for a battery. Which means about a 50 mile range.

Fred and his Harley

An Arizona Highway Patrol officer stops a Harley for traveling faster than the posted speed limit, so he asks the biker his name.

'Fred,' he replies.

'Fred what?' the officer asks.

'Just Fred,' the man responds.

The officer is in a good mood, thinks he might just give the biker a break, and write him out a warning instead of a ticket. The officer then presses him for the last name.

The man tells him that he used to have a last name but lost it.

The officer thinks that he has a nut case on his hands but plays along with it. 'Tell me, Fred, how did you lose your last name?'

The biker replies, 'It's a long story, so stay with me.' I was born Fred Johnson. I studied hard and got good grades. When I got older, I realized that I wanted to be a doctor. I went through college, medical school, internship, residency, and finally got my degree, so I was Fred Johnson, MD.

After a while I got bored being a doctor, so I decided to go back to school. Dentistry was my dream! Got all the way through School, got my degree, so then I was Fred Johnson, MD, DDS.

Got bored doing dentistry, so I started fooling around with my assistant and she gave me VD, so now I was Fred Johnson, MD, DDS, with VD.

Well, the ADA found out about the VD, so they took away my DDS. Then I was Fred Johnson, MD, with VD. Then the AMA found out about the ADA taking away my DDS because of the VD, so they took away my MD leaving me as Fred Johnson with VD. Then the VD took away my Johnson, so now I am Just Fred.'

(The officer walked away in tears, laughing)

Lol!!

The former Puma CEO is on a mission to make business both environmentally and socially sustainable, without sacrificing profitability Jochen Zeitz saved Puma. Now he's trying to fix global business.

What's the first thing a driver will say after hitting a motorcycle?

"I didn't see him."

Or maybe "When I saw him, I didn't realize he was going twice the speed limit."

Yup—classic case—conservatives help to save companies and then they go woke and self-destruct anyway.

Anyone who would ride an electric Harley is obviously not concerned with looking silly, so that sounds like a fine solution.
