Keeps getting better!

My experience with lean burn is it feels like the car starts to glide, almost like it shifts to another gear.

I really like the throttle lever, the hx did not come with cruise control and to be honest I do miss being able to stretch out.


I believe you could make it simpler and use a brake handle from a bicycle and use that same line tensioning system. It would just need to be spring tensioned so that when you are using the pedal the line doesn't get slack in it. But then again using a lever is probably much easier than using your wrist to squeeze a handle
