I've got my Pulse insured with Progressive, but yes the collision value is in that $12,000 to $15,000 range. I'll try to hunt down my policy for specifics.

I'll have to get down there one of these weekends. I'll give you a call to see when you have a "free" Sat or Sun.

I personally wouldn't advise anyone of use a 400cc donor even if it's water cooled, since a completed Pulse with driver and passenger could weigh in at an excess of 1200lbs. Having said that.... there ...

No, as far as the head light covers go. I believe most everyone is just mounting basic plexi-glass on their Pulses, which is painted to "hide" the light fixtures.

If I were going to redesign the Pulse, I think I'd convert it to a reverse trike design, similar to the T-Rex or Aptera.

You'd have to think about seating layouts. Single passenger makes for the m ...
