I think EVs for the masses is great. I for one would love an EV, most people don't do much more than 40 miles a day commute, although I just cycle that as my preference.
I've got nothing against EV motorcycling, but it's the weight. It's one of the reasons I don't have a thou or a 600. I was on my RS the other day and for its class, it's fast. Easily will nail the last bike I rode, MT07, in the twisties for sure. You simply can't beat the weight of a well designed two stroke, let alone its simplicity.
That said, they're hardly friendly for the environment. I'm currently working on another project, welded the frame up last weekend and the oil that thing dripped was rediculous!
My issue is, I don't see the motorcyles as the root cause of the problem for climate change. Small CC bikes are hardly the biggest contributor to greenhouse gases.
