That is a fun one. There are some other nifty machines on the BFF
website. Check out the Quasar and the Voyager, especially. Efficient,
fast and comfortable. My only issues with the "Recumbent Moped" would
be the front suspension looks a little light for a real battery pack
and the fact that you really need to make a fairing for it to get any
kind of real range. range. Open frame powered two wheelers have
terrible drag coefficients. Maybe throw a hub center front suspension
on it and a partial fairing, maybe with a roof, and you'd have a real
fun ride. But then, I want to make an electric Quasar. Heh.
