@fuck_cars Something I wish Australia would change is laws prohibiting any vehicles between a 200W ebike and a full motorcycle. I'd get a lot of value from a 60kmph limited 1kW ebike. But currently to sell such a thing it would have to comply with all motorcycle requirements, and things like ABS on both wheels is really not required for such a device.a

  • You don't have mopeds? Mopeds are usually good for at least 45 kmph?

    • @TDCN mopeds are classed the same as motor bikes, so their aren't cheap options.

      • @TDCN sorry, I was slightly wrong, but right enough for the state I live in, mopeds here still need a motor bike licence

        • Damn that's inconvenient!

          Do you have size difference one your motorbike licenses at least so you can get a smaller one like in EU. Here we have 3 sizes and the access to them are depended on age and experience from the smaller size. The smallest one is iirc max 13 Hp. It's still a lot more than a moped I know so doesn't really answer the issue.
