Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / 2013 Zero S : Proof that EV Motorcycles have grown up at last

« on: July 24, 2013, 01:23:06 AM »

I've moved from the 2012 to the 2013 after 10 months. I feel sad when I see my old Darth Zero still in the lot at the dealership when I go visit, but at the same time, this article makes me glad I traded in.

Pics and Vids / My Zero sounds like a space ship :)

« on: July 23, 2013, 06:11:19 PM »

Finally got around to putting a video together of one of my rides on the 2012 Zero S. I had a summer screen, the Corbin seat and a 2-up kit (for my 7-yr-old).

I put it together mainly for my friends and family to see, but thought it might be interesting to share...

Cheers!

General Discussion / Calling Seattle area Zero owners!

« on: July 23, 2013, 04:36:09 PM »

Plug In America will be making a showing at the Renton River Days from 11-3 on Sunday July 28 at the Renton Community Center. I had contacted PIA to ask about participating in their EV display, and Chad Schwitters, the VP for Plug In America responded with enthusiasm. So if you can make it, please swing by! Better yet, I'm sure they'd love to have you this weekend (and on National Plug In Day), so please contact them through their website. I know that having more than one Zero would make a more impressive display too.

I've asked Chad if he could be e-mailed directly. If I get a response, I will post his e-mail address. Erin Tator, their Director of Operations, said they'll likely take people right up to the day.

I hope to see you there!

Cheers!

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / "Zero Mango"

« on: July 01, 2013, 12:36:22 PM »

Got Darth Zero back this Saturday from having the wheels powder-coated. Might have to dub my 2013 S ZF11.4 a new name. Now shopping around for a painter to complete the look. If anything, now it is visually loud.

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / I'm going to miss my Zero S red wheels.

« on: April 07, 2013, 12:39:50 PM »

I was showing off my 2012 Zero S to a visitor today and I realized how much I liked my red wheels. But I just plunked money down to order a black 2013 S ZF11.4 and started daydreaming about whether I can order after-market wheels. Anyone have any recommendations? In the meantime, I wanted to "see it" before buying and played with some ideas in Photoshop.

What do you think?

Industry - Electric Powered Two Wheelers / List of West Coast EV stations

Was this already posted here somewhere?

I sure would like an app that gives me a list of where to safely go, but this map is encouraging.
