It seems that Kaneda of AKIRA got his electric motorcycle class 2 license today.
I guess the era of electric bikes is really coming..... Honda's PCX ELECTRIC/HTBRID will be out by the end of this year, and Harley's Project LiveWire will have its first electric motorcycle on the market next summer.
Hmmm. As a fan of the internal combustion engine, I feel a little sad, but as long as I am old enough to ride a motorcycle, gasoline-powered vehicles will never disappear, and the AKIRA motorcycle is also available in gasoline.
Hospital RIDE goes on ...
Well, today was the same as ever: hospital ride, pet-sitting duties, and then a visit to my ex-partner.
After the meal, I lured the cats in with some cotton candy. She's a former stray, so I can't even get close to her unless I feel like it, but with the effect of the relish, she's just like this.
After playing with the cat for a while, I went to the hospital: .... But I didn't stay that long. I went to the Triumph dealership nearby and rode the SPEED TRIPLE. The staff told me that a new model will be released this spring with more horsepower and a full-color digital meter, but I like the current shape and the analog tachometer. But I like the current shape and the analog tachometer, so I think I'll try the current model next time.
A friend from Germany
After the hospital ride, I went back to my house and worked a little bit, and then went to 2Rinkan in the late evening.
This was the first time I had seen a new Ninja 400 outside of a store. When I spoke to the owner, he told me that he had been riding the old Ninja 400 for a few years before returning it for the new model.
However, this vehicle is not the star of the show today.
Here's this week's rental vehicle!
The BMW S1000R had been added to the line-up of the unlimited rental plan, and I had reserved it.
Brembo radial calipers and master, Akrapovic muffler. The car is equipped with auto cruise and heated grips as standard. I rode it home right away.
No, this could be a great bike: ..... On the bridge across the Tama River, the front was empty, so I opened the throttle wide open for a bit: ..... It warped. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea......
I was riding in ROAD mode, but I read the manual carefully when I got home because it seemed that I could tweak various settings......
There's also a chapter called "On the Race Circuit."
