Can I do a wheelie? Never tried... on a motorcycle.
(But then my motorcycle riding experience is limited to a couple of years on a Ninja 250. They're capable of wheelies, but only with some pretty aggressive body english to make it happen, from what I've seen. Not a simple matter of twisting the throttle.)
Can the ZERO do a wheelie? Apparently:

It wasn't borked for me when I viewed the thread? Now they're the skinny format again, like they used to be.

Why they didn't go with a "Super Single" style body kit.
Their dual sport style fairings look terrible.

They kind of do look terrible, don't they.
Unfortunately: plans have changed and I won't be able to go to Ottawa tomorrow.

Hiya,
I'm jealous! What is the real range of this model? Could a larger battery be fit into it? (It only weighs 225 pounds fer cryin' out loud!) Is the suspension on the soft side, or can it be preloaded to be stiffer? (I weigh ~240 pounds.) How are the brakes? Does it have any regenerative braking?
I've heard they plan on a (semi) faired model with the same mechanicals, called the Zero SS.
