I understand that ABC used some electric motorcycles at the LA
Olympics.  They were most prominent at the marathon where the
camera operators and commentators rode in side cars of electric
bikes to avoid polluting the air the runners were about to breathe.

Are such bikes commercially available?  Are they affordable?  I'd
appreciate any info I can get, and I'll summarize if I get any concrete
info.

Thanks,
john
