  I have converted my own motorcycle and it is a joy to ride. People turn their heads and smile when I pass them.

  I am hoping you will start-up your own business as I think there is not enough people trained outside the electric vehicle industry. We are fast approaching the time where petrol and diesel engines will be a thing of the past and there will be a shortage of skilled staff.
