Electric motorcycle gets you around in style

As a New Yorker, I’ve always wanted to find an inexpensive mode of transportation which doesn’t rely on gas, and doesn’t look anything like a Segway. Afterall, I want to be able to get to my destination without completely ruining the whole social life thing. A motorcycle is, in my opinion, the best electric vehicle. Maintenance costs are low, and you never have to worry about parking. This is where the GPR-S from Electric Motorsports comes in. The stylish $8,000 Motorcycle cruises along at a swift 70MPH and packs enough battery life for a 35-60 mile range, perfect for the daily city commute. Best of all, it only takes 4 hours to recharge completely. It’s available right now. [Electric Motorsports via Wired]
