EVs slow?  I was given a Zero as a loaner, darn quick. Surprised the heck out of me.

I think it's kind of like the Aprilia Mana. People here laughed and sneered at the thought of an automatic motorcycle (even though the Convert is so we'll loved. I never understood that logic). Even the same parallel thinking with EVs about the NEED to shift. A belief that a clutch was integral to motorcycling. But the people who actually rode the Mana? They absolutely raved about them.

Sometimes you have to try it before you knock it.

My friend Leo owned a Mana GT and I rode it once - that was enough, didn't enjoy it. Love my Convert though...
