Not at all impressed.
Also, this bike, and the CHP electric chopper
(http://www.bikernet.com/bikebarn/PageViewer.asp?PageID=583) seem to
have a need for a fake motor, or at least cylinder heads. Why is that?
The CHP article even calls it an "Electric V-Twin," which is ridiculous,
as the V-Twin refers to the piston engine layout. Do they really think
people are so stupid that they'll either: A) Think that it's some kind
of electric piston, or B) won't consider it a real bike without cylinder
heads, despite _knowing_ it's electric? Of course, then there's the gas
tank ...
Of course, noone ever accused the custom chopper guys of having
substance over style.

I'm not terribly impressed with the looks of that. Any one else? It
looks to me like they tossed some batteries in the frame then wrapped
them with a bread box. Ness usually comes up with better looking stuff
than that.
