Kav, call sign “Havok,” rides a Harley-Davidson. His wife drives a Tesla Model 3 LR. She also rides a Kawasaki Vulcan 650. When he told his biker mates that she was getting an electric vehicle, they said: “Electric vehicles are gay, mate!”
I met Kav at one of our “Coffee, Cake and EV” mornings and expected the Tesla story to be about him. But he is adamant that although he drives it, the Tesla Model 3 belongs to Marzi. Havok explains:How did Marzi come to buy a Tesla? “We were trying to substitute the fuel-guzzling FJ Cruiser with a more economical and comfortable option for Marzi’s commute to work. Upon researching and test driving, we came across a second-hand Model 3 rear-wheel drive, which Marzi loved.
Marzi and her husband live in a small town to the south of Brisbane. She tells me that she feels bullied by some of the locals since she has bought her Tesla. The car gets lots of attention. The other day she was driving at 53 km an hour in a 50 km/h zone and a pedestrian yelled at her to “slow down.” The problem with the Tesla, we agreed, was that it looks fast, no matter what speed it is going.
Kaveh announced that his wife was getting a Tesla to his bikers group. “He’s got a Tesla!!” Everybody laughed. Kav describes himself as a bit of a hothead “I ride to die,” so he threw down the gauntlet straight away. “Let’s have a drag race,” he says to his mates — “your bike, my EV — we’ll soon see if EVs are gay.” No one took him up on the offer. [
One day, out in the Tesla Model 3, Kaveh pulled up at the lights next to a Suzuki Gixxer 750. He waved at the rider and indicated it would be good to test the bike against the car. The biker downshifted in readiness and Kaveh left him behind over 200 m. Once they got to traffic, Kaveh let him go.
Happy to be gay then
When he’s not on the bike he’s rolling coal and getting cancer.
'Cry Havok! And release the Hogs of war!' Me, crippling Shakespeare.
