Title: Chicago M/C show EV article
Post by: Richard230 on February 16, 2012, 10:26:45 PM

Here is a kind of wet-noodle article about electric motorcycles, resulting from the Zero display at the Chicago Progressive Motorcycle Show.

Note that Brammo wasn't even mentioned. These guys really did a lot of research for this article.

But then I can see why Chicago might not be the best place to own an electric motorcycle.   ::)

yeah...I don't see electric being a big seller here...(I'm in Wi. ,about  120 from Chicago...)
as someone stated... "said he would be interested if the electric motor could roar."  ::)
alot of that attitude around here
but the range seems right on for them!  ;)
