Hey...to re-open an old thread...
I bought a Zero. Basically, I arraged basically an even-out swap using my CB1100. It was with another dealer, not the one in my town but one 300 miles away. He'd given up his Zero franchise and had a 2012 demonstrator, 2000 miles on it...and apparently his town isn't big on electrics. Kinda makes sense, since his main line is BMWs.
So...it was even and out. I was having little interest in the CB; and the 2012 Zero DS ZF-9 was actually listed at $12,000. So...what the hey; this is a hobby, anyway.
I wanted lighter. My Wee-Strom is a hundred pounds lighter than the CB; and the 2012 Zero is only 270 pounds.
This might be fun, depending on how it works out. If the motor and battery hold out...it'll be the perfect in-town ride.
