My apologies Shaguyun - it was just a very poor attempt at humor on my part - no offense intended :)

I was flying back from the states and missed my connecting flight in Shanghai so had to spend the night there. The next day while I was walking around I was surprised to see very few motorbikes but thousands of electric motorbikes! They're everywhere there. They run about $500.

The thing is you have to be careful walking the streets because they're absolutely silent. A great way around town and zero pollution (except for the pollution generating the electricity costs.)

BMW make an electric scooter. It's not cheap though but I believe it really quick off the line.

Ha ha :lol: , yes! Hundreds of thousands of electric bicycles in China, this is because in some big cities (such as Shanghai) is forbidden motorcycle driving, and ride the electric bicycle without a driver's license and no licence, buy back can ride, as long as you don't run a red light, traffic police won't go to tube you.
But didn't go to control, because you will find that there are a lot of electric bicycle through a red light, retrograde, driving in the fast lane, and even in the fast lane retrograde, personally, I estimate in China every day hundreds of traffic accidents as a result of the cause of electric bicycle.
I am also a victim, when riding a motorcycle in order to avoid retrograde bicycle and fell down. I sincerely hope that China can change the status quo, let more people to safe driving on the road.
