OK, now that is interesting. They might actually make it work, build 200 million (or so) for the State, then sell us a couple of the side. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

There might be a cheaper alternative to expensive Lithium batteries in 5-10 years called the Proton battery.

The unoptimised prototype is said to be already as efficient as lithium. |

Hope is not a strategy.
Lithium will not scale.
I hope Zongshen will prove me wrong. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Probably had to push them back to the charging point after that.
And why the limitations? You can bet your bottom dollar that it's not because they are lovey dovey manufacturers who don't want you to hurt yourselves if you fall off.
More likely because the energy consumption is in the equivalent region of Lily Allen's vodka consumption and the result is pretty similar as well. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

Zero recalls all 2012 bikes because of explodey-fire.
But, but, old models.
But, but, buy a new model, and you'll eventually have to try and sell an old model. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

To be fair only affects 200 odd bikes, I guess they didn't sell many of the 2012 models...
Zero are offering to buy back the affected 2012s. ____________________ 2015 Zero-SR; Yamaha Diversion 900 |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 6 years, 3 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
