Coolest Earth Day ride: The Sora electric superbike | Crave - CNET

I can't decide whether or not I even like the look of the bike. It looks better with a rider on it. The front half looks mean and muscular while the back half just drops off. It looks like it can eat those new ZERO electric bike for breakfast. Anyway, at $41,000 I don't see how they expect to mass produce them and make any kind of money as similar bikes like the ZERO are selling for 1/3 the price. Though I'm no business man so what do I know.

a few of the wealthy will buy and then it will fade away like a pet rock:disapprove:

I don't like it... I think the tank looks like a massive tank bag. +1 on no back.

yeah, it does look *somewhat cool with the rider on it. But ultimately I am not a fan of the look of the bike. Way too pricey... Could have a BMW K1600GTL AND another really nice sport bike for that price!

if fuel savings/basic maintenance is a main reason for purchase it would take several lifetimes of riding to reap the benefits. and by that time you'd probably have to replace the batteries. i just don't get it :facepalm: it's nice to see more companies giving the electric bike a go-around but this one was definitely a bust.

$41,000? I'd buy a gas-sucking 2013 black Tacoma Baja Edition TRD for that coin.

I love any electric/hybrid vehicle... it just leaves more for gas for me!
