Why not just buy a 75 mph motorbike, cheaper, more practical and far safer?

I'm a true devotee of both powered-bikes and motorbikes Eddie, having ridden motorbikes most of my life and powered bicycles with petrol throughout the 1950s and e-bikes in recent decades.

My comment on "why not just buy a motorbike" was advice for those who see bicycles in motorcycle terms and want such daft speeds, not advice for cyclists like ourselves who want power assistance.

If you read down the comments on youtube, I think what he's actually trying to do is sell the things. One comment in particular caught my eye.

"human only can produce 100~150W power, is too slow to charge it. The batteries we have can do full charge at 12 mins, so solution is batteries charge station,"
