how cool is that? no noise from a harley...going to be nice. should also be an easy bike to operate and do well in the beginner's course.

forget the water-cooling and go straight to super quiet electric power. the moco can also use that power pack in scooters--a market they do not compete in at this time.

now if the e.p.a. will do their part and not allow any modifications to exhaust systems, quiet motorcycles may one day be the rule and not the exception.

Just for grins, I test rode a Zero -

It was actually kind of fun. Maybe as a second bike and call it your "pit bike"?
