I look at the bike as an experiment and work in progress. When I work on the front end steering lock-lock limitation I plan on adding brake mounting brackets on the front of the fork tube since there is not enough room on the trailing side. I will have t swap the calipers side to side. It will be interesting to see the difference in lift effect. I will only be using it as a commuter on city streets with a 45MPH speed limit. Round trip is 15 miles. Hopefully I can keep the dirt off the track. On riding on rainy days with the exposed electronics.....me

Tony is a friend of mine. We've had an exchange of emails, starting many years ago, about electric motorcycles and Feet Forward designs. He stayed with me for a comple of days when he came back to the UK after an 11 year absence in Spain where he now lives. This resulted in a very bizarre phone call when a very familiar voice asked for Tony and I realised after a few seconds that it was Keith Duckworth, half of Cosworth! Tony shares some of my concerns about the curved track design and says the devil's in the details. There's a picture of Tony on my Scirocco website. It's the last one in the Lynch Streamliner section. Paul Compton www.evguru.co.uk www.sciroccoev.co.uk www.bvs.org.uk www.morini-mania.co.uk www.compton.vispa.com/the_named
