"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of it's victim may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated, but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." - C.S. Lewis

He shave it off a couple of months ago.


I met him on Friday night, and the beard is back, although not in full force.

right so got in touch with 4into1 they sent me a drawing almost as professional as mine :)

they confirmed your advice! thank you. the red goes to positive battery and the white goes to the white from my stator/field coil. i've got two greens and doubt it matters how green meets ground the electrons will find a way, i'll hook one up to the field coil and one up to the frame, right?

and i thought that this would be a side project hah, doing school at the same time and the bike is like two going from one school to another school. <3 em both though
