heh the etc you missed was the electric car. ICE engines killed those about the same time as steam. amazing how failed technologies keep popping up as "new" ones. can we see a diesel sports bike instead please? maybe all aluminum block and head with a roots blower and ceramic pistons? might need an extra wide box to make it work though. eight speed? dunno. be nasty though

Whoa there buckaroo! There was never a viable production electric car. Horses,steam,ETC was used for centuries to move people from one place to another...although electricity is/was used in cable cars/trolleys...hmmm. Like I said,as long as they can make it handle and go like my bike,I don't care if they use two fucking hamsters on crack for power!
