Ryan's the man. Might want to change thread title though: Alta shut down over three years ago.

In my area Dominoes teaches you to drink liquor and beer in a group setting, as in 40's and such. I live in the 'hood so dominoes is based primarily on trash talking while drinking, and less on math. Still enjoy the occasional game though.

I never had the chance to ride an Alta. I liked the Zero street bike, hated that weird Polaris thing that required shifting and I still want to ride a NIU, only the one equal to a 125cc. For now I ride class 3 ebikes.

I didn't know about the Harley Davidson money connection. Strokes beard.

Odd now a small manufacturer can get it so right and a larger manufacturer get it so wrong.

My local dealer stocks Zero and I've been promised a test ride on one with no obligation within the next month.

My other dealer stocked NIU for a few months but gave it up after very low sales.

I helped a friends dad restore an AMF era Harley. Big touring thing. He got it for an obviously good price and updated it over a year period. I learned a lot from helping. Best part was I got to take it out for the maiden voyage, and dropped it in the grass when I got back. He laughed his butt off! No damage to the bike or me, just a bruised ego.
