Regarding the zero tho, I left zero hq on the fx with 100% charge..I put 14.7 HARD tight, twisty miles on it (wheelies, backing it into corners, that kinda stuff ) and ended up with 37% battery life remaining.

The Empulse LOOKS like an electric bike should. I've been asked on the road "How many CC's?" because the Zero can pass as a conventional look. So of course I shopping for "100% ELECTRIC" bumper stickers.
I do like how tall and light the FX rides - I did not get it off road - only the streets around the Zero plant. With the Single 3.3 kWh battery - your range seems about correct. If you had it full 6.5kWh you did ride very hard.
My 2013 S has 11.4 kWh battery - so I can 'ride it like i stole it' and get half the expected range. Or I can ride like the old man I am and get pretty close to manufacturers estimates.
