OK so how does a person become a beta tester for one of these?

RE: Diesel bikes - was Re: [biofuel] Digest Number 1618
To be a beta tester, it will cost you $6,500 (ie, the price of the bike) and at the end of the testing period they will take it back and you will have to wait for a production bike. At least that is what they told me when I was going to apply. I decided not to, but others may be more interested.

I think you misunderstood them. You get to keep the test bike, and when they go into full production, you have the option of becoming a sales rep. -Original Message- From: James Slayden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 23, 2003 2:58 PM To: biofuel@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: Diesel bikes - was Re: [biofuel] Digest Number 1618 To be a beta tester, it will cost you $6,500 (ie, the price of the bike) and at the end of the testing period they will take it back and you will have to wait for a production bike.
