I've got one of those huge Guzzis too, a 1978 850-S4 (T3 California and LeMans 2 cross). Unfortunately in the shed awaiting time/money/interest to all come together at once !

I had a look at the website but could not see where the units are located - without that info seems a complete waste ! From their own figures its 6p to charge a bike battery and £1 a day in registration costs !

How about "Bike Charge Point" or just "eBike Point" as an eyecatching logo would probably be more recognisable.

Whilst whizzing to work this morning it occured to me that surely it would be in BEBAs best interest to have more charging points and therefore somthing that they should be contributing towards !

On the subject of charging to charge : Lets be honest here, the e-bike uptake is very small nationally and the actual chances of one of these establishments getting someone wanting to charge their battery are even slimmer, therefore if any establishment had a sticker up they would probably only...

Our local Vodaphone shop has lockers that you can plug your phone in lock it and leave it for an hour for a charge. You just select what make of phone you have and rent that box (Vodafone offering mobile charging in-store | Electricpig) ! Any locker facility will cost money to set up (to...

OK I will chip in with my two penneth worth ! Big green button looks bright, modern and "green". For me a big draw would be if the charging point were somewhere I was going to stay for at least a few hours eg at National Trust property where charging could be free to NT members or ask...

It wouldn't be a case of "Sorry, I did not see you !" rather "Sorry, I was blinded by the lights !"

I have four sets of these LED type lights (Asaklitt Mini White and Red LED Lights.) on each end of the bike, plus relective / flashing wrist and ankle bands. My daughter is embarrassed at what I look like with them all flashing !

Try putting copper grease on the BACK of the pads, always worked on my motorbikes.

At £300 my guess is it will be a very niche market. Swedish firm launches 'invisible' cycle helmet - The Local

Get yourself down to Aldi - todays offers are cycling gear. I am going for the reflective ankle / wrist bands with built in flashing LEDs at £5 for four ! Would suggest lots of layers of clothing and taking spare clothes to change into when you get to work, make sure they are well wrapped...

The seller keeps saying it can reach 40km/h even when I ask for confirmation. He would say that - I doubt there is there a no quibble full money back guarantee on that claim.

Add to that numberplate and driving license !

Having stayed out of this thread so far, surely one major limiting factor would be the tyre grip on the road / gravel / mud / ice in which case it all gets academic (no pun intended) ?
