That is a *very* competitive price compared to its only two rivals (SR/F and SS9 by my reckoning). The SR/F suits my use-case perfectly right now (well it does, when it runs...) but all three bikes would at a pinch work just as well. As an EV its only shortcoming appears to be the AC charging being so badly hobbled, which for the foreseeable future, does somewhat limit its touring capability, as least insofar as people touring on motorbikes tend to like out-of-the-way sorts of places where you don't find DC charging.

Not that anyone's interested but if I had a spare 23 grand lying around I'd be putting a deposit down right now and giving Mrs. P. the Zero...
