Musk Says Tesla Motorcycle Won't Happen...Ever.....Tesla Electric Motorcycle The Model M Four wheels good, two wheels bad.....Tesla intends to make quite a range of vehicles. It already has a couple different sedans in the Model S and Model 3, along with the Model X SUV. A crossover, the Model Y, is now on the way for 2020, as is the Semi and its second sportscar, the Roadster. CEO Elon Musk has already said they would build a pickup truck as well. What it won't be building, though, is a motorcycle like the Tesla Model M..*This is a bit of a shame. Electric motorcycles are awesome

So, why won't Musk extend some of that sales magic to motorcycles? We now have a definitive answer to that question. At the recent Tesla annual shareholder meeting, he was asked by an audience member, "Has Tesla ever thought about going into the motorcycle business?" The entrepreneur responded with an autobiographical anecdote. Apparently, Musk had enjoyed dirt biking for around eight years as a lad, and even had a road bike. But, when he was 17 he was almost killed by a truck and, he explained, this apparently forever ended any fascination he might have had with riding motorized bikes.....Prototype On The Back Burner For Now.
... It's too bad, though.Two-wheeled vehicles are an efficient way of getting around and the Tesla brand could easily extend over an entire range of products, from street bikes to scooters to electric bicycles.Almost everyone that has a bike has had falls and close calls.....Get back on the Iron Horse.
Have a great weekend.......Be well.

The 800 Horsepower 2019 Dodge Challenger SRT HellCat...........*Redeye Express*
From the legendary fabricators at Metalcrafters, comes Santa's Sleigh.First thing is, does it work? Yes, the Redeye Express still can be started.But no, it can no longer drive. Before you think that they hacked up some new 800-horsepower 2019 Dodge Challenger HellCat Redeye, think again. The donor car was in fact an engineering mule that was about to be crushed, before it was reassigned for duty for this special operation. Now the vehicle, will be saved in the FCA historical achieves after the holiday. The design studio sculpted many things into the Redeye to make sure it not only had Dodge DNA ,but made sure that Santa could deliver his toys in fast, speedy and fashionable manner.

When it comes to automakers redesigning Santa's venerable sleigh, Dodge isn't the first OEM to take a crack at it, but it may have created a sleigh that can't be topped or beaten in a drag race.
... Dressed as Santa Claus for this promo is, American professional wrestler Bill Goldberg

...1932 Indian Chief
✴The Chief was introduced as Indian’s heavyweight competitor to Harley-Davidson and lasted for 31 years. In 1922, 21 years after the company began building bikes, Indian launched the Chief with a 61 cubic inch flathead V-twin. Although a larger 74 cubic inch bike, called the Big Chief, was an option.

✴Indian remained faithful to the principle of a flathead, and in doing so escaped some of the pitfalls that Harley-Davidson encountered in their efforts with overhead valve designs.

✴The Indian was actually rather unconventional, with its left-hand twist grip (apparently so that policemen would be able to use their pistols with their right hand), a foot clutch, hand shift and the ignition advance controlled by the right handlebar grip. A 3-speed gearbox was standard, but a *Police Package 4-speed gearbox and a reverse gear were options.
... Hope all is well.....Have a great weekend.....Stay safe.

Hi James,

Just been lurking/stalking around your profile playlists and I am thoroughly impressed with the size and quality of your reference library. I go for thriller, suspense, crime and dip into horror and SciFi now and again so you can be sure I'll be popping back and looking through your drawers.

The about me section is novel and would be a useful permanent fixture on the home page (maybe it is there) for the forgetful crowd like me.

An interesting visit - thanks.

1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429 Fastback
*The Boss 429 also known as the "Boss" by enthusiasts is arguably one of the rarest and most valued muscle cars from the era. In total there were 1358 original Boss 429s made. For a two year run,1969 & 1970. The origin of the Boss 429 came about as Ford was seeking to develop a Hemi engine that could compete with the famed 426 Hemi from Chrysler..Boss Delivered Well Over 500 Horsepower.

🔹The Boss 429 engine was derived from the Ford 385 engine. It used four-bolt mains, a forged steel crank and forged steel connecting rods. The engine featured aluminum cylinder heads, with a modified Hemi type combustion chamber which Ford called "crescent". These heads used the "dry-deck" method, meaning no head gaskets were used. Each cylinder, oil passage and water passage had an individual "O" ring style seal to seal it tight. The Boss 429 engine used a single Holley 4-barrel carburetor rated at 735 CFM mounted on an aluminum intake manifold that flowed well for its time.
... 🔹 Though not originally offered as an option, it is common to add a spoiler and window louvers commonly seen on 1969–1970 Mach 1's and Boss 302's.

Accompanied by a 5 speed manual transmission which was unheard of in 1967!

Only 351 (only 62 left hand drive) 2000GT's were produced worldwide! The 2000GT shattered many world speed records and was able to achieve a top speed of 135 mph! The 2000GT made a name for itself as a world class car. Another boost to its prestige was its appearance in the James Bond 007 movie........ "You Only Live Twice"
...
Reviewing a pre-production 2000GT in 1967, Road & Track magazine summed up the car as "one of the most exciting and enjoyable cars we've driven", and compared it favorably to the Porsche 911. Today, the 2000GT is seen as the first seriously collectible Japanese car and the first "Japanese supercar". Examples of the 2000GT have sold at auction for as much as $1,200,000.
