I'm stuck on this personally. I love my manual, I have a tiny little Mazda 2 and I have driven that thing absolutely everywhere because I can control it better than any automatic I've ever driven. But I've been casually looking for a new car and I'd love to have an electric, but I don't want to lose that level of control and everything I love about a manual.

What do you all think? What's your take?

If you do a lot of off road riding you will probably eat shit with an electric bike at least at first due to having clutch-feathering muscle memory, and that functionality not being there anymore. That, or if you like to do wheelies you are undoubtedly going to loop yourself the first time you try it on such a hypothetical bike with loads of torque and no clutch.
