Interesting that they developed this as a motorcycle and not an electric motor scooter. The thing is clutch-less and tops out at 50mph.

I'd love to see an electric *motorcycle*, though. Out here in Montana, with the distances we have to travel for ordinary business, I need something that is highway-capable. A max speed of 50mph won't cut it. Gimme something that can cruise at 75mph and I'd seriously look into one.

The Zero dirtbike seems like it could be a fun off-road bike. Don't know how their supermoto will fare on the streets, tho.....
