After reading Sheng's email about the Ebike, I had to go see for myself. As it turned out, my wife fell in love with it, and we got one. Now, the question is, how much weight can I load onto the tailgate of my 85 Westy? The bike weighs 79 lbs (about 60 lbs with the battery removed). I'm off to pick up a bike rack tomorrow that will carry the weight, and I'm hoping the rear hatch will support the weight without difficulty. Any advice? TIA.
