shit, you'd have to ride that thing 50K miles a year for 50 years to pay that baby off. 
love the concept but the range for me is lacking appeal and that price.

long way off until one could possibly be competitive against a gas bike, if ever. This guy seems on track to try to be the first one even close though.

If a major advance happens in battery technology these things might become more viable but as it stands currently just toys for now.

Where's our Arc Reactor? Damn it, Tony Stark built one in a cave with scrap!

blah blah electric bike.

$1000 for a ninjette 250.

That other 7000 will buy a LOT of gas at 55+ MPG.

A guy is selling a GPZ for $800. I cant find much info on the 550, only the 750.

Any information on it?

look up a 1980-1983 GPz550 which in Kawasaki technical terms is a KZ550H1 if I remember correctly...I had a 1982 GPz550 as my 1st street bike...it was an awesome pizza cutter!

Some cool little scoots in here. CB360 was my first bike.
Just FYI, I'm pretty sure that it's against the law to ride anything under 250cc on federal highways.
