Title: Loading a Zero
Post by: Ethestral on July 18, 2016, 11:34:38 AM

Hello All,

If you are on the fence about buying an electric motorcycle have you considered how easy it will be to load a direct drive, high torque, relatively low weight bike? I didn't, but it is strikingly different.

I did not consider how often I load my motorcycle for weekend trips. This weekend was no exception, and because I wanted to as all of you questions about belt noise I happened to have my camera with me.

It was stupid simple to get the DSR into the back of my truck. I have a tall truck (its stock) and loading dual sports can be a dodgy game. Sadly I have dropped several in my day, but dents are like a patina that you earned story by story. Even the dumb stories leave marks.

Comments on how to film are welcome, just remember I paid the neighbor kid $8 to film, narrate, and edit the above glory.

I think that video worked rather well! Maybe get the kid to film fewer extreme closeups. ;)

I don't own a truck but have loaded dual sport bikes, so this rings true for my DSR.
