Hello,
I think this is great news. Zero Motorcycles has released a electric dual sport motorcycle.

I didn't seem any mention of regenerative braking and the mentioning of all of these 'custom' parts means it will not be cheap to replace.
I was also hoping to see some mention of modes, like for 'Fun' and 'Commute' to change how fast it will drain the battery.
I still think this is great news, as if a startup like this does well, then hopefully the big boys will have to compete and Honda and Yamaha will have to release their bikes (supposedly Honda is working on an electric and Yamaha a very efficient diesel).
Anyone else looking into a EV scooter or motorcycle?
Oh, and with it being chain drive, you could 'tune' it by swapping sprockets.
