Setting a New Electric Motorcycle Record
« on: September 06, 2012, 02:48:10 AM »

Hey guys :)

I am going to set some new records on my 2012 Zero S ZF6, first untweaked as it comes from the factory, then tweaked with my race settings. I can't wait to see what I can do!

BTW, I only have 11 days until the event, and am trying to raise some funds to help with the entry fees and costs related to setting national and international records. Sadly it is not as simple as throwing my leg over the bike and hitting the throttle. Any help you guys can offer would be GREATLY appreciated. I will be sending everyone something little as a thank you as well :)

Gas 2.0 just published one of my letters to them! How cool is that?

I just received an email from Brandon.  He is still at the Salt Flats and set two world records in two classes for modified electric motorcycles. Both were over 100 mph.  That is a great accomplishment.  I hope Zero can make some good press with that and that Brandon will be back at the Salt Flats next year to break those records with a 2013 model.   :)

I was just visiting my first motorcycle forum, the Chain Gang, where I got my "230" number when I owned a 1997 BMW F650 Funduro.  There was a new post on the board by a fellow who rode his 1998 Funduro from his home in Texas to California then to Baja and finally Cabo.  He posted a number of photos taken during his trip and one of the photos was this one of "a world record-holding electric motorcycle" at Bonneville, with his bike in the background.    :)
