Made it to the front page .. that's huge exposure for Zero. Pretty remarkable amount of interest being expressed in the thread.

That is a lot of love for any bike photo posted there for that matter! Reading the comments get irritating when people are trying to describe what it's like to own or ride one when they obviously haven't done either.

Looks like good exposure.  At least gets ICE bike owners thinking about electric.

Wonder if the UCF bike belongs to anyone here? 'fess up!

That is the first negative review I've read on the 2013 Zero. Most of the reviews are very positive and say things like, "Electric motorcycles are finally comparable to gas bikes".
It seems that the reviewer's main reason for recommending to NOT buy an electric bike is the higher price compared to gas bikes. What he doesn't do is compare the long-term savings that offset the higher price. Depending on how long you have an electric vehicle it can actually be cheaper since there are minimal fuel costs and almost no maintenance.
