[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 877399, member: 434"] Three more...all low speed: You're in a parking lot in 1st gear doing a sharp turn into a space. Engine dies and bike goes down. Could it fall over on you? Again safety. You're in an intersection waiting to turn left and light starts to turn. Engine dies and you're left in the intersection with a changed light. Could other traffic hit you? Could a person behind you and hit you to clear the intersection? If so, a safety issue. You're on an uphill at a light stopped and it dies. Can you muscle a 600 pound plus bike laterally to the side of the road without going backwards? For that matter, just think of any scenario you're riding where the bike dies suddenly and you'd rather have it powered. All are probably potential safety issues. Some are just more dire and risky than others. [/QUOTE]
