No helmet, no gas, no sense.

[Rickard Olsson]

"The inventor of the “KillaCycle” electric motorcycle almost killed 
himself during a demonstration at the Wired NextFest conference.  Bill 
Dube, a government scientist during the day and electric bike builder at 
night, did a “burn out” in front of the Los Angeles Convention Center, 
but accidentally accelerated too much and crashed into a Minivan."

The concept of sticking batteries in a bike is sound.
Having the inventor (as opposed to the regular test driver) demo the 
bike on camera unprepped, is not.
