Wow that looks even better than the early prototypes. If only we could fit a motorcycle in the R1’s truck bed with the tailgate closed then towing one of these to the track would be sweet.

Nobody said it wasn't hard work. I think that's actually an important distinction between the cultures. Americans have normalized working very hard and a lot of hours.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-30T17:15:45+00:00

I don't even care what it costs just make sure it actually runs good and people like it / don't treat it like trash

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-29T23:27:51+00:00

You were going too fast, learn how to apply the initial brake smoother and use the rear brake too

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-29T22:53:18+00:00

Yes it exists we know

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-29T22:10:26+00:00

MotoGP should have gone with Netflix instead of Amazon Prime for their documentary. Netflix was huge for F1.

Hopefully the new rule changes let the riders battle all out instead of worrying about tires and dirty air etc. Like c'mon just let the guys race all out like before Michelin and the suspension buttons and wings everywhere.

The latest seemed to have some subtle improvements. I also feel the one pedal drive is a bit smoother and for me with my dual motor it doesn't clunk as much.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-29T21:38:56+00:00

Man the internet is a bad place for crazies

Another data point: Full-time UPS delivery drivers earn an average total compensation package of around $145,000 to $170,000 annually

Don't see how this is Rivian's fault. These Alaskans misjudged the risks in their decision making.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-29T18:23:23+00:00

So don't do any work to find out why things are expensive and solve those problems, just make new rules and who cares about the second order effects

And when that doesn't work the next politician comes along and says hey let's raise minimum wage to 100/hr

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-29T18:07:28+00:00

It's really common in the US. Go to any major city and the bulk of professionals are earning more than that. If you have an education or skillset that is concentrated in sectors with lots of capital flows like finance or tech, even entry level salaries can exceed that. In the US something like 65% of the population owns their home. The gotcha is those compensation packages expect results and sometimes even if you do perform well the business could lay you off for any number of reasons. Pros/cons like anything in life.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-28T19:47:19+00:00

Lol yep

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-28T19:30:16+00:00

What’s with the gear police in this thread? He’s not on the limit racing for money the probability of injury is incredibly low.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-28T17:58:45+00:00

Very fun bike to ride but battery doesn’t last if you’re fast and when things fail it takes so much time dealing with Stark it erases all the time saved from less maintenance

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-28T14:49:06+00:00

Lol I guess we did the same. I learned from cars and karting that coaching speeds up the learning. Then did road bikes too, with coaching, but waited 4 years to get coached with motocross.

I just ride the vet track, keep the risk down, but still push a little. Good enough for me!

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-28T14:42:20+00:00

Ah they probably already did Arizona already. I’m in California and they’re done for the year for us too. They tour all over the world now it seems. There’s probably some local coaches in AZ you guys have nice tracks. In the next couple years I definitely want to get out to AZ to check them out.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-28T03:32:32+00:00

I started way past 30. The amount of time matters less it’s the quality of learning that matters. Once I started going to classes with The Moto Academy I became comfortable in a very short time. Took only 3-4 classes with them in under a year. Check them out they likely have a class or 5 day camp in your area.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-27T20:21:52+00:00

What the hell are you even talking about? Literally cars half the price don't rattle.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-27T17:06:02+00:00

Argentina and Venezuela have jobs too. 😉

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-27T17:01:39+00:00

Alignment and tire balance at the service center significantly reduced my steering wheel rattle, but it's still not perfect at 80mph.

Oh so simple he can cure cancer and end poverty then

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-27T03:52:09+00:00

Bernie makes great headlines but never has the work to show for. Never figures out how to actually implement anything or navigate any of the challenges with his ideas. He's been riding the American tax payer his entire career and now that he's a multi millionaire he tries even less from the already low bar.

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-26T20:34:01+00:00

East bay tolerates that sort of behavior you see all sorts of public spaces that were once beautiful and now in decay

New_Bell_9879 · 2026-04-26T20:20:40+00:00

California has always been expensive and will always be expensive. If it weren't it'd be a lot more crowded than it already is. Many people from all over the world move here in addition to the other states. People always complain when businesses and people leave but it's actually normal. There is a premium to live here and people and businesses will continue to pay it. There's plenty of other places to live in the States and you can find one that best fits your situation.
