Aqwon, the First Hydrogen Scooter
An anonymous reader writes "After 10 years of research and development, Josef Zeitler has developed the first hydrogen-filled two stroke engine scooter with technical approval from the German TÜV. In case of an accident, the tank will freeze and no fire or explosion would occur. Anyone can fill-up the tank on the scooter within 3 to 4 minutes, without being in any danger. The pressure sensor will transmit the data to a computer chip, which will then accumulate and send the necessary information, regarding the proper hydrogen mixture, to the injection jet. This process of refilling is possible with a newly developed system consisting of pressure tanks and a hydrogen generator. AQWON's top speed is about 50 km/h (31 mph), the power is 2.6 kWh and the weight is minimal. This is the same as a petrol/oil two stroke scooter. There is no extra maintenance service required."
Whats the economics in using two strokes anymore? Two stroke engines pollute a lot, and the exhaust includes more fuel than not, with the exception of diesel two strokes. What motivated him to use two stroke instead of four? Is the power increase that needed?
etc. they think that sum more monIE's gonna pool US out of diss won.

I'd ride a scooter (or a fat chick) and not really give a damn who knew. My foot on their ass will shut anyone up quickly should they decide to make snide comments. :)
You may be right that most people are to uptight to do anything as uncool as ride a scooter but then tough shit to them I guess. More toys (and fat chicks I hope) for me.
At what price learning? At what cost wisdom? The price is a man's peace of mind, and the cost is his life.
1. sell hydrogen scooters to iraki or palestinians.
2. BOOM!
3. Profit!!!
Didn't the Germans learn their lesson the FIRST time???
All your base are belong to us!
