Six months months and I used no gasoline!

Woohoo, nice!

I just got Nokian WRG3 tires put on Number 7. Initial feel is they coast better than the stock Conti's.



The WRG3 is an all-weather tire and is designed to have true year round function. It is low rolling resistance, but not ultra low according to Nokian.

Looks like a snow tread. Let's see how they last and if they keep quiet.

They designed it to be used all year, but still have reasonable winter performance. It is slightly noisier than the Continentals they replaced, but a bit quieter than the Hakka R2's - which are really quiet for winter tires.

Where is the most active EV consumption logging site? Are there any Zero motorcycles there? They have been working very hard since the early days and their products are now very cutting edge mature and lower in price. Maybe the US government will consider reinstating the rebate for electric motorcycles now that the climate agreement has been signed.
.
Forums are showing consumption of anywhere from 80-150 Wh/ mile. Modal average of around 110 Wh/ mile or 306 MPGe.

None of the EV specific sites that I am a part of have ANY consumption logs.

I just found that Spiritmonitor has 21 Tesla's logging with an average of 7.79 miles/ kWh.

Overview: Tesla Motors - Model S - Spritmonitor.de
.
and there is 1 2010 Zero model S logging there at 20 miles/ kWh.
.
Electricity consumption: Tesla Motors - Zero S Modell 2010 - Spritmonitor.de
.
But both these numbers seem way too high.

The site isn't calculating properly. The Zero should be showing 7.75 miles/ kWh for 263 MPGe. And the Tesla's are 3.0 miles/ kWh for 103 MPGe.

The Golf ev's are showing 3.83 for 130 MPGe.
