This was a pet project of one of the guys at Zero Motorcycles, but boy does it look like fun. Using the electric motor they are able to create nearly 3x the horsepower and EIGHT TIMES the torque. This thing produces more torque than my FZ07 that weighs 400 pounds. I think they should sell this one as a unicycle instead of a motorcycle as the front wheel will never be on the ground.
Would you ride an electric Grom as a commuter?
Check out the size of that rear sprocket!

That looks crazy. I'd love to take that for a ride. Seems like the perfect vehicle for back and forth to work. I've been thinking about looking into an electric bike for just that reason.
they're still a little expensive for the range you typically get, but I am definitely excited for the future of electric bikes. Look into the Alta brand, they're pretty awesome also.
This one looks good as well. Wouldn't mind having one in my garage :D
