... do we actually have "cool looking motorcycles", especially compared what was already available 20 or even 30 years ago?

That's a BMW ce 04. I guess it counts more as an electric scooter, but as there's no empty space between your feet I guess it's somewhere in between.

Glad to see future-you apparently survived The Great Purge. ...So far.

The sound and absurd acceleration make up for it
There is also the Zero SR/S and that thing does 0-100 km/h in 3 seconds and 0-160km/h in 6 seconds. Tops out at almost 200km/h
I mean here’s a Kawasaki Ninja from 1990, motorcycles have looked cool for a loooong time

Feel like switching to something lighter than the news? Watch Idiocracy (hopefully rewatch) and try to guess how much is yet to come.

That thing would be a blast until you had to turn.

Future future future you only says: constant screaming

The new Honda E Motorcycle is simultaneously design to look like it came from 1980 and 2080.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I laughed so much i cried when watching Idiocracy. Its just that now, we have Trump acting way worse than the characters in the movie, so Im kind of not laughing anymore at where things are going.
Its some large psy-ops where people are supposed to feel like the world is so insane and there is nothing they can do. But outside of this "social" media, there are a lot of decent, intelligent people still around who doesnt buy into all the bullshit.
Unfortunately a lot of young people will believe this is normal, since they dont know how it was before.

Truth, every word, and I feel ya. It's one of the salient reasons we've gotta be kinder to each other: we're just crabs in the bucket to the ruling class, and the gloved hand comes for us all without bias. Stand together, my carcinous kin!

How does the white one look old-fashioned and yet is exact same design?

That's why I like Atom Fall, sun-drenched dystopia, with pretty flowers.

All those cycles are OK, but they don't compare to the light cycles in Tron. Or even Kaneda's bike in Akira. C'mon corporate dystopia, you can do better...

Absolutely. So many people dont get this. Stay safe friend.

Now, to let our cousin-in-arms "451F" know. Get the band back together.

The noise is one of the best parts about ICE vehicles though.

Literary futuristic dystopias have the luxury of clearly defining good vs bad and generally ignoring the horrible plight of the have-nots as anything other than plot points or scene setting.
You’d never read a book that was nothing more than the grind of hopelessness, the self-sabotaging myopic stupidity, greed, and hatreds of the masses that get manipulated by politicians.
What the authors do almost always get right is the bottomless greed of the wealthy willing to set the fictional world on fire and destroy, or at best coldly disregard, the lives of those not in their class to further their wealth and power.
