The Sondors Metacycle is an affordable electric motorcycle. The wonderful gents at FortNine had a chance to take one of these bikes for a spin and find its faults.

As you’ll see in the video above, this bike is not perfect, but for the price, it’s not too bad. It offers a lot to love and that’s saying something from a somewhat questionable company.

Like Ryan from FortNine, I have mixed feelings about this bike. On one hand, I see it as a legit affordable electric motorcycle. On the other, it’s not everything it promised to be and not everything I’d want.

Feast Your Eyes on the Damon HyperFighter Electric Motorcycle

Damon Motorcycles has a new model. Well, a couple of models. The Damon HyperFighter Colossus and the HyperFighter Unlimited were revealed at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
