I'm really looking forward to seeing the Arcimoto SRK  reach consumers.  I already ride a Honda Silver Wing with a trike conversion.  As soon as the SRK is available, I'll be placing my order and putting the Honda up for sale! I live next door to Pittsburg, Kansas. Pittsburg is home to Pittsburg State University, Kansas Technology Center.  PSU-KTC has always had a strong interest in electric vehicles.  I'm hoping Arcimoto can find a reason to visit and bring a couple of SRK's along!

If the SRK has two identical electric motors, one on each front wheel, how does the inner wheel compensate the speed difference when driving through a curve? If both front wheels were to maintain an identical speed, this would likely lead to excessive tyre wear and/or instability.

I found this hard to find (but maybe it was just me?) so I wanted to pass this along to you.

So quite a while back before the Gen 8 mule was revealed, I was comparing the Gen 7 design to the shuttles from Star Trek (being a big science fiction nerd).  I posted this side-by-side photo:



But when the Gen8 came out, it was a way different shape.  I couldn't find a spaceship that looked like it.  So I had a little Photoshop fun.



I can't remember what prompted me to Photoshop Rocket Raccoon into Blue a few months later, but that also happened.

Arcimoto Test Drives - Detroit
Sep 15 - Sep 16

Being lucky enough to live a mere five miles from the A-Team's shop, I end up attending almost all of their local events.  I've been bringing my two-year-old son Brandon to some of these, and I've made it a bit of a hobby to take pictures of him in the various prototypes.  I thought I'd share a few.

When I got my test drive with Blue this summer, I put my phone in my pocket and hit record.  This is that terrible video.  (Blue was making a fairly loud whine at the time which they fixed the next week, so just be aware that the noise is atypical)

The Arcimoto ETC will make it's appearance...
At the Lane County EV Ride and Drive
Sunday Sept. 11th  3 PM PDT in Springfield, OR.
No test drives are available for this event.
But it's great to see this milestone completed.
