Electric Motorsport's Electric GPR-S motorbike is a new electric motorcycle with very similar specs to the Vectrix. 60-70 mph top speed, 35-60 miles per charge, and $8000 pricetag. Personally I like the body style of the Vectrix better, but this is a pretty cool one too.

I gotta disagree with you on that one. I do like the Vectrix (and loved riding on your RMartin), but that thing is pretty mean looking. People would definitely be scratching their heads seeing something that looks like a classic street bike just whiirrrrrr past. Very cool - now how do we get a test drive?
Yeah it's just a matter of personal taste. The Vectrix is more my style.
Looks like Electric Motorsport is located in Oakland, so it would be pretty easy for you to take a test ride. Here's their GPR-S page, too.
Didn't we already talk about this one kind of?
Oh hah, I didn't realize that was the same one. You got me!

Haha, well....at first I was really confused. I knew I'd seen that bike before...but I couldn't remember if I'd read it on a blog or on Huddler.
In any case, as for whether or not it's cooler looking than the Vectrix, it's more of a racing style/traditional motorcycle look which I'm sure is appealing to some. (Namely those who think the Vectrix is too scooter-like.) They're both awesome. Just...different awesome.
I also just emailed the folks over at Electric Motorsport to see if we could set up a Huddler test drive, so I'll keep you posted!
