Welcome!
« on: November 30, 2007, 01:38:38 AM »

I have been doing a lot of research on Electric Motorcycles and scooters lately.  I figured I would start a forum to post what I find and get feedback from other people who own or are interested in these awsome machines.

So please join me in discussing the future of two wheeled power!

Hey Amish!  Can't wait to hear more about the bike.  I was reading up on it on another site.  I have seen your other projects and know you can build some nice customs.  Keep me posted.

I'm new to this.  What are the fastest and most reliable EVs?
I'd like something with decent range that could go 50mph if possible.
How much are they?

Hi RideCharged, those are tough questions to answer until we get more owner experiences logged.  For the Vectrix Maxi-scooter expect top pay over $9K USD.  What do you want to use one for?  There are dirtbikes for less $.  And you can always build one for a lot less.

Skadamo,

Glad to be here. This is going to be a learning experience for me. I do not own an electric motorcycle but am looking at buying a commuter bike next spring and would like it if it were electric instead of fossil fuel driven.

Hope to learn more and participate in discussions with experienced members here.

Cheers!

Hi, new here.  Pretty much the same as most people.  Just got into the notion of electric bikes and I am curious to what is the current, new, or future models hold in store for us.

Hello, My name is Chris and this introduction is long overdue.  I am relatively new to electric motorcycles, but have been a life-long fan of motorcycles and particularly motorcycle racing.  I started a blog in October of 2008 to piece together some news and commentary on EM design and racing, www.EnvironMoto.com .  One of the first articles I created was giving props to Electric Motorcycle Forum.  I still consider it the best electric bike resources on the web... I don't think skadamo ever actually sleeps!

I have very infrequently lurked around here, but I have created an account so that I can be more present.  I hope that I add some positive and useful content on the forum, and I hope that some of you will check out my blog from time to time to keep me in line!

Hi Chris, thanks a lot for the huge compliments to me and the members here! Everyone here is posting great information. I learn from most every post.

Your site is in my feed reader, shame on me for not linking out to you if I haven't. I know I've at least tweeted you posts. Anyway, I will keep an eye on www.EnvironMoto.com. Keep up the great work!

Hi, wanted to add my interest to this board. I already mostly post on the elmoto forum.  I am an owner/rider of a 72 volt AC GPR-S.

Hi BretA,

Welcome and I also wanted to say thanks for your documentation of your experiences with your GPR-S, that I probably read on the elmoto site.  I also have purchased a 72 volt GPR-S, and am currently waiting for Electric Motorsport to put it together and test it.  It is not quite stock, because the batteries are 60 ah.  I have been dying to ask you -- once you got all the bugs ironed out with your machine, have you been happy with it?
