Yes, the subject is correct. From what I have been reading, all 4 Japanese manufacturers collaborated to create the standard. It seems that Honda is the first to put it into practice domestically.
They were everywhere in Bavaria during Sep visit. They looked like they had an oversized pedal crank frame hub (motor?) and generally somewhat beefier overall. No external battery that I could see, but did not pay any attention. You could rent them at the resort, but we ran out of time and weather. ... next time for sure.
Yes, the oversize wheel center hub is a large brushless motor. You can buy the brushless motor/wheel/rim assemblies online, add your own speed controller and battery pack, and off you go.
I think in towns like I grew up in....that havent been californicated...they make lots of sense...you know...the old "Leave it to Beaver" "Ozzie and Harriot" "Mayberry RFD" neighborhoods....I ride my bikes around Spokane very little and very cautiously. Someone ran a stopsign the other day in a very confusing intersection of three roads and almost hit me in my Honda CRV. Spokane is planning yet another lane for the interstate due to californicaiton. I will never see it completed just as I will never see the North/South Expressway completed.... Washington State DOT. Quote. "You can not build your way out of congestion"

I will get one as soon as they are available for reorder with my local dealer. I am highly interested in the one on the right that resembles a Honda X-ADV.
It has to be at least 300% better than my old Zero Motorcycles SR. Suppose it gets better than 80-85 miles per charge while riding at highway speeds. I will be more than satisfied with those figures as this bike would be my work commuter.
It's not the 70's anymore, when us kids rode our Stingrays down to the five & dime store to get Pop Rocks. Oh, those were the days!
ITA. In the 1970s, I lived on a rural road outside of Champaign Urbana in the country. I would and did have a bicycle when my knees were good and I felt safe cause there was little traffic ...just two lane roads and corn fields....and a house here and there.....now I live in the country outside of Spokane and there are many who do bicycle my rural road and they all have have rear view mirrors to avoid getting killed by people who use rural roads to bypass urban roads now chocked with Californians.
