2020 Zero Motorcycles Zero S review: A naked electric bike

General Posts / By

by Bruce Brown from https://www.digitaltrends.com Pros A mature e-motorcycle design Excellent driving per charge range No gears, no clutch, no shifting Powerful brakes and suspension Inexpensive to fuel and maintain Cons Forward-leaning rider posture Rider and passenger pegs high Expensive for an entry-level bike MSRP $10,995.00 Zero Motorcycles‘ 2020 Zero S is the most highly-evolved version of a vehicle with the longest production history in a product class that most people don’t know exists. Most people would be surprised to learn electric motorcycles are on the street today. They’re even more surprised to hear the first arrived over 12 years ago. Founded in 2006 by a former NASA engineer, Zero Motorcycles’ first production model was the 2009 Zero S, making 2020 its 12th model year. Depending on the buyer’s choice of installed power pack, the Zero S price varies from $10,995 to $18,390. The most powerful (and expensive) Zero S has a 223-mile maximum city driving range. Design and performance I asked Zero Motorcycles to suggest which model in its nine-model 2020 lineup would be the best choice for an e-bicycle rider who wanted to pick the Zero as their first motorcycle. After discussing the lighter, taller, more off-road-bike-looking Zero FXS, I decided on the Zero S with the lowest power battery pack. I tested the base 7.2 kWh Zero S, priced at $10,995, which the company describes as “ideal for the first time rider looking for an entry-level street motorcycle.” The 2020 Zero S base model ticks the boxes for e-motos. Acceleration is immediate with the S’s full torque on tap from a standing stop. Other than tire noise and a slight whirring sound from the carbon fiber drive belt, the bike is quiet. There’s no clutch and no shifting because there’s only one gear. So, as with most

The Home Of Orange County Choppers Is Up For Grabs

General Posts / By

Orange County Choppers’ home is coming up for auction. The 61,305 square feet building was ordered by OCC back in 2008 and cost $12 million. It was a time of plenty, at the height of the expensive chopper rage and when OCC’s reality television program was enjoying a great deal of interest. Time has passed since then, and OCC fell on hard times, as many hard-working people and companies in the U.S. and over the world have. OCC lost control of the property in 2011 after failing to pay the mortgage. They are now tenants and recently signed a 10-year lease renting out about 60 percent of the building. The property at 14 Crossroads Court in Newburgh, New York, is slated for auction on March 7 and bidding will starts at $900,000. More details on this auction can be found here.
