Electric Motorcycle Companies Are Dying Left And Right As People Just Aren't Buying Enough Bikes - The Autopian(www.theautopian.com)

Range depends A LOT on how you ride but anywhere from 80 to 120 miles is my experience. I’m sure you can get 160 miles from specs if you ride at speed limit.

My 848 had a very loud Acrapovic exhaust so cars would part like the red sea, but I haven’t noticed any difference in how drivers react between my Monster with a stock exhaust and Zero. Oblivious drivers will drive like shit unless something REALLY grabs their attention. Silent motor doesn’t really make it worse. I maybe only feel it at intersections because it seems like it is more difficult for drivers to gauge your speed without the sound.
