However, a huge percentage of riders doing this aren't pedaling at all, have crap handling skills, and pass way too close to peds and skittery riders. As such, I regard them as a nuisance. Lightweight electric motorcycles make a lot of sense. But they should be ridden as the motorbikes they are.
Agreed!
