Those things are expensive.  SEA neighbor got one last Autumn.  Loved riding 
it.  WRD struck, his Priapus got the catastrophic converter swiped thrice this 
year, and some hobo absconded with is bike while he was at the park.

Local SEA news channel had an in depth report on the illicit markets the 
vagabonds have.  From the video, plug in bikes (any bike) were big sellers.  
Seems the tent dwellers do not face the same draconian restrictions on 
conducting business that tax paying retailers do.

I don't know why, but I entered this thread expecting an electrically 
assisted pedal bike, which seem to be all the rage among those of a 
certain age (Sammich loves his).

My '62 R69S looked just like that - but it also had a little folding
luggage rack thingy on the back. The Earl's fork front suspension goes up
during braking instead of down, so if you balanced the front and rear
brakes, you stayed level.
