Popular Mechanics 1911 (month?) page 560
Motorcyclists who object to the trouble of
starting the gasoline-driven cycle, or to its
gatling-gun-like exhaust, will welcome a new type of
electric motorcycle which is being introduced, and
which, it is claimed, will run from 75 to 100 miles on
a single battery charge, start instantly on the turn
of the switch, and run absolutely without noise.
Ya know, if you hadn't seen the date on that article I would have
thought it was another press release from today... The more things
change, the more they stay the same?
