    I'm prepping for $4+/gallon soon. Sold my old Heritage softail and am ready to park my truck as soon as I can find the right e-cycle. I like the Kolter CS and TS but there's no dealership network. I've ridden the Livewire and it was nice/fun but don't know if I'm ready to spend $15-20K on it.

    If I have to, I'll convert the KTM E-XC into an electric street fighter. Perhaps I should convert my Specialized Roubaix into an e-bike?

    Or, maybe I'll just get a nice reliable Japanese standard - Gladius, FZ, ER6n, SV650or1000 etc. Could go with another Bonneville, Moto Guzzi V7 or V9 ..... or an old BMW airhead. The new CFMoto 700 series is nice looking and has received some good reviews. Decisions!!!!!

    Biden believes it will be very soon, so it must be true.

    Iran about to attack Israel, so naturally Biden Derangement Syndrome victims are licking their chops, eager and ready to blame Biden for it

    I don't have BDS, but I blame Biden for being owned by Netanyahu. Israel attacks an Iranian consulate in Syria. Why? Obviously to get Iran to retaliate, knowing that it would. Why would Israel want this? To draw its ally the U.S. into a wider war in the Middle East (and take eyes off of Gaza). And what-do-you-know, Biden is gung ho to defend Israel against an attack that Israel asked for. No questions asked. And this is really what Biden and America need this election year, a good Middle East war. But hey, it's what Netanyahu needs that counts.

    Israel really doesn’t need to draw the US in to take out Iran, although they will welcome the assistance. They have been preparing for this inevitable event for decades. My guess is that Iran’s retaliation will be another large proxy terror attack.

    Considering a large portion of the US is currently not thrilled with Israel in its fight with Hamas, this would seem like a terrible miscalculation in the part of Iran to swing support back to Israel. So I doubt it happens.

    Get the Moto Guzzi. It’s European so you will have to deal with the maintenance and repairs. Buy a small Honda to use when the MG is down.

    Iran would be foolish to attack anything inside Israel.

    If I were them it would be through the Houthis.

    Israel attacked people responsible for the murder of its people. They just happen to be in a Syrian consulate

    Israel’s people were murdered by Hamas. Hamas may be an Iranian proxy, but what did it really accomplish to kill some Iranian commanders in Syria who will simply be replaced? Was that small measure of revenge worth whatever retaliation is coming? As if the Israelis didn’t already have their hands full exacting revenge against the people who directly attacked them. Revenge that has cost 30,000 civilian Palestinian lives and damaged or destroyed half the buildings in Gaza. I suspect a larger motive in the strike in Syria. Can’t prove it, of course, but I’m sure that Netanyahu, a war criminal who is also being eternally tried for corruption, will do anything to stay in power, including getting Israel attacked—you know, bringing the country together—and dragging in the U.S. with all its support.

    This drone attack is on Netanyahu. Did he think Iran wouldn't respond?

    Can they possibly get by the Iron Dome? Maybe just one and it would take out Netanyahu.

    Why should the US help? Israel has become a huge liability to the US.
