The Zero S
So you wanna go green but can't afford a Tesla or Fisker Karma? Join the club, and then have a look at the Zero S street legal all electric two wheeler. Built for fun, built to last and built to never use a drop of gasoline. What more do you want?
The Vectrix is another all electric two wheeler but is a scooter rather than a motorcycle. Pricewise, the two are very similar.
