Basically, a electric bike, one like the other talking about, is a pedal bicycle with a helper motor, or the above Zero motorcycle. The Zero costs about $12K, A Suzuki S40 costs about $5K. The Zero can go 45-75 miles, after which you need to find an AC outlet and let it recharge for 6 hours. The S40 can go 100-150 miles, after which you refill the tank and go back on the road in about 5 minutes.
Assuming 5,000 miles a year, $5/gallon, 50 mpg, you will *break even* on the Zero in 14 years. The Batteries will *not* work that long.
Electric bikes are expensive toys for "green" people. Electric motorcycle technology *may* make economic sense in 10 years. Right now, a gasoline motorcycle is still the cheap transportation.

Why Don't More People Use Electric Bikes?

Recently I have been doing a lot of research into electric bikes. An electric bike is a great way to save money instead of wasting it on gas. According to several manufacturerâs electric bikes can travel approximately 30 miles on less then $0.50 of electricity. If you compare this to $3.00 or more per gallon of gasoline an electric bike might be a transportation option for you. For $3.00 worth of electricity you can travel 300 miles.

It's real hard to transport 4 kids on electric bikes, and many people don't feel safe in them.
