@DeeHobbit I haven’t been to a supermarket since August. Just the dairy, FoodBox, bakery, and occasionally the fruit store. Do I win? 😃

[Eva Håkansson @eva_hakansson]

@VoxanMotors @maxbiaggi @Venturi @rokit Too bad it isn't true, because it is such a great story. ;-) The KillaJoule is still the fastest electric motorcycle in the world, both officially at 248.721 mph (400.278 km/h) and unofficially at 270.224 mph (434.883 km/h). How do I know? I built it, and I rode it to the record.
