Newbie to electric bikes.
« on: October 27, 2021, 08:09:36 AM »

2016 Zero SR just fell into my lap. A buddy wasn't using it so I rode my 2010 Yamaha Strat up there. Put it in his truck brought back to the dealer in Elk Grove, Ca. drove the truck back and rode home about 6 hours each trip but there were redwoods involved so it was a good weekend. They did a used bike inspection needed new brakes and the forks tweaked. I am looking forward to learning from you guys. Need to learn how to post a picture.

Welcome! That's a great beard you got there, and a fun ride.

Should we take bets on how long before he changes his name from "Yamaha Pat" to "Zero Pat"?  ;D

I've ridden Yamaha for 40 years Zero only about a month. It may take a while longer to change. :)
