So ~$1800 dollars, but that doesn't really say how affordable or competitive it is in their market.

This is priced around about a KTM Duke 125 or lesser. But performance is not as comparable to that bike but comparable to more of a 125cc non-sporty bike. Of course the price could get justified with reduced fuel and maintenance costs as is standard with any EV and ICE comparison :)

3.24 kWh is not going to get you very far. That is about the same storage power as was in my first Electric Motorsport GPR-S that I bought in 2009.  That bike was good for a top speed of 65 Mph for 10 miles or 40 miles at 30 mph before running out of power. Should be OK for around-town riding - as long as the power stays on so that you can recharge the battery pack.

The market won't be doing very much freeway speed, so that's not an issue.  And not requiring a specific fuel is always better when in a blackout! ^-^  Any genny will do.

(I say this setting up a cable to charge my Zero from the generator using the house supply of propane)
