Title: Zero gets more money and Neal Saiki goes vertical
Post by: Richard230 on March 17, 2011, 08:56:50 PM

According to an article by Clutch and Chrome, Zero has acquired an additional $26 million to help fund their world-wide operations and to expand their production of electric motorcycles. Meanwhile, its founder, Neal Saiki, who has announced that he is quitting day-to-day control of the company, is doing so to work on a human-powered helicopter, in order to compete for the Sikorski Prize   :o

Good luck with that! My recommendation would be to stick to electric power.   ;D
