Zero Motorcycles 2012 Launch Video - 114 Miles Range

[Winterstick549]

They keep getting better, beefier, more range. I could see one as my third, or fourth bike, plus I would have to live in the right area that is electric friendly, such as many places in California.

with the crappy gas today, and limited time I can ride, upkeep on gas bikes is a PIA. Id like to ride one just to feel the powerband.

You will get federal and local tax credits in most states. Usually about 2000 dollars off the price. If you buy one in Colorado, the tax break is over four thousand dollars. Might have to be a Colorado resident thou.

the ones that have 100+ range start at closer to 15, they're being a bit misleading there. All the ones with that range are labelled ZF9, and the 'from' prices refer to the ZF6s with a good deal less ;)

"No clutch"....SUCKS!!

[camtnkngsnk]

I'd prefer a slightly heavier, beefier frame, LED headlights, flush mounted LED marker & license plate lights, a full aero fairing for the street model...water cooled motor with low, med & high gears & clutch...getting closer...great job so far = )

Wonder how expensive that shit is? Just saying, we're not THERE yet when it probably costs an arm and a leg.

@TranceIs4Ever

website says prices start at $7,695.00,don't think that too bad.

100 mile range /100 mph are the magic numbers for electric bikes to become interesting. Looks like we are there!

Plus they look awesome!

[burntskull77]

And the price?

[FlyingFighter]

It's AWESOME, Electric bike that work great !!! Future is knockin' at our door now ! :D

[TheVJProduction]

[groMMit1981]

Which Zero model competes with the Brammo Enertia Plus?

[Winterstick549]

@groMMit1981 None yet. I'm sure Zero will eventually make an electric superbike. Right now they are solving the range and durability issues with their standards.

[groMMit1981]

@Winterstick549 cheers, I watched "Revenge of the electric car" so now understand a bit more of how much money and time it takes to bring a product to market. Brammo is even struggling at none of there products are readily available yet as far as I can tell, well not outside the US.

"No shifting, no clutch, just ride."

*cut to chicks on bikes*

I c what u did thar; so easy even women can use them.

[ViciousCannibal]

Awesome. So quiet and so handsome. I definitely want an electric bike in my future.

[R1150Rolfster]

NOW WE'RE TALKING..... Range and battery life.....This IS the future....!!! I have gotta have one. Am off to talk to the minister for "War and Finance". :-)

[hidrox4]

I didn't know electric bikes were getting so awesome. I'm gonna buy one soon.
