Or, to save on postage, I could poison myself WITH THIS!"

That's a funny way to spell "James Workshop"

A bomb?

Cars are fun to me, especially older cars that have character and aren't so big and soundproof. I live out in the mountains and it really is a good time to go for a Sunday drive along twisty roads, no real destination in mind. For instance, in the fall, after a rain, with windows down, the vivid colors and smells help me slow down, clear my mind and remind me I'm part of the world, not just a passive observer.

And yes, I realize what sub this is in.

They went crazy and they're no longer supermen.

And Terminator: TSCC

They're really common outside cities.

Why not both?

It's an older meme, but it checks out.

All good additions!

My main concerns are:

1. More unsprung weight is always bad for suspension performance and handling.

2. Whenever you have to replace the rear tire, you're also going to have to disconnect the electric connections from the motor, which coupled with the extra vibration from being unsprung, introduces a greater risk of one of the connections coming loose during riding.

3. If you are in an accident or hit a pothole that damages the rear wheel, you're going to have to get an OEM replacement that will be expensive because the motor is integrated into it

Hub mounted motor? No thanks. I would rather do normal chain/belt care then deal with the inevitable maintenance issues that would lead to.
