No........ I said they wouldn't be able to get their $$$ right NOW, I didn't say not ever. By the time hydrogen is a viable solution, because of slower R&D, and there's some serious money to be made by the current Administration, most these old phuckers may be dead. They're making money right now with batteries, solar, ect. And I didn't say that politicians are STOPPING hydrogen investment and R&R, I'm just saying they aren't pushing that agenda/technology like they could or should. Have you heard the MSM talk about hydrogen development lately? Or at all? No.........

I have aftermarket exhaust on my bikes. My sled is 4 stroke. This bothered many 10 years ago. I no longer have glass packs on my daily truck. But it has 300k miles, and rides alit better. Ill give it up for whatever propolsion that keeps me going trouble free miles.
My old bikes may end up like classic cars and bikes now. Novelty,but won't want to drive them every day.

It doesn't exist yet, but it will. And battery tech will mean much much more than 100 miles.

One thing the EV haters seem to ignore is the fact that oil IS going to run out one day, and a day not that far in the future. We cant wait until the well goes dry to work on alternatives. It will take years to get EVs to a point where they are comparable to gas, but they will get there.
The only differences I see between gas and EV are the lack exhaust noise and no shifting. Of the two I will miss running through the gears much more than the exhaust.

you will have an allotment and it will only allow limited travel. The vehicles prices will lock many out of the market.
All part of the plan.. We don,t make the power to charge them by magic . that is what many forget. Wind mills do not work proven fact. Most here are seldom even in use. They won't run them so they don't have to fix them..

The difference is freedom. You will not travel as freely. You movements will be restricted. Once enough are forced on the grid
