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.

... 🔹 Recent news emerged that the Series 1 may be returning in the guise of the Shelby Series 2, with a slew of upgrades but much the same styling as its forebear. We can only hope that the launch of the new car runs smoothly – and perhaps leads to a renaissance in appreciation for its elder sibling.

What do you get when you cross a snake with a hog the....*Shelby Series 1 Motorcycle

Gorilla Racer...... A Honda Monkey 125 with attitude
✯ K-Speed is one of the busiest shops in the business, turning out customs at a head-spinning rate. That’s because they’re also one of Thailand’s largest aftermarket parts suppliers, so they know a thing or two about production.

✯ That being said, we’ve never seen K-Speed build the same type of bike twice. Until now, that is. This Honda Monkey-based mini-cafe racer is a twist on a minimoto but with a few tasty enhancements.

✯ Even though most of K-Speed’s changes have trimmed the already small Monkey down further, they went in the opposite direction with the fuel tank. It’s been given a super-sized look. Gorilla Racer’s final color scheme hits the mark too, Lambo grey, with a whole lot of components blacked out.
... ✯ Have a safe week ahead...........Stay well my friend.

Bugatti Is Building a $33,000 Car for Kids..................🔹The Bugatti Baby II
🔹The Bugatti Baby II is a 75-percent scale replica of the 1924 Type 35 Lyon Grand Prix car. Which means that there's actually room for adults to drive this thing too, an adjustable pedal box facilitates driver swaps between masters of the universe and their progeny.

🔹In child mode, the Bugatti Baby II has 1.3 hp and a range of 12.4 mph. Adult mode unlocks 5.4 hp and 28 mph. But some versions will have a *speed key that enables 13.4 hp and kills the speed limiter. The removable battery pack is 1.4 kWh but can be upgraded to 2.8 kWh, for those buyers with really long driveways *the larger battery gives about 19 miles of range.

... 🔹There are three versions of the car, to ensure that even some of these people will still experience envy. The Baby II is the standard car with a composite body. That's your everyday $33,000 go-kart. But if your parents really loved you, they'd at least spring for the Baby II Vitesse, which has a carbon fiber body and comes with the speed key.

The 1960 Porsche 356 RSR From *Emory Motorsports
◆ Rod Emory is a legend in the Porsche game, so when he's got a new build, you know it's going to be worthy of an in-depth look. His 356 RSR is no exception to the rule

◆ Combining a 1960 Porsche 356B T5 with a 1990 Porsche 964 C2 is no easy task. For one, the wheelbases are different. But for Emory Motorsports, the challenge was minimal considering the team has experience imitating Dr. Frankenstein. Together, the two are now the 1960 Porsche 356 RSR, a hot rod Porsche with menacing looks and insane performance.

◆ The car is an exquisite example of craftsmanship. The nose and tail bodywork, aluminum deck lid, and one-piece aluminum hood are all hand-formed with the deck lid featuring custom stainless hinges. Added features include the added louvers, stainless steel mesh grille, and intercooler inserts in the steel section of the rear fenders. The rocker panels are modified Porsche 911 pieces while the side and quarter windows are Plexiglass.
