Electric Bikes

Sorry if it's been done before, and no I'm not talking these shopping things, but a proper electric motorbike like a KTM E-XC or a Brammo Enertia.

Anyone tried one? Thoughts? Are they just plain wrong?

the lack of engine noise could take a while to get used to.
to tempt me it would have to be as quick as a petrol.
it would have to have the range of a petrol
it would have to have a recharge in about the same time as refueling a petrol.
in a few years they might get there.

1. I agree, will be weird with no noise
2. They are...in fact argueabley quicker
3. They do
4. Nope, but about 2 hours isn't that bad
5. I think they almost are....google the Lightning LS218

I'm still not convinced though
