MOTORCYCLE REVIEW | Zero SR/S Electric
Electric motorcycles; The future or the devil’s work? An inevitability or a passing phase? Ever since I visited one of Europe’s largest electric motorcycle dealers, English Electric Motor Co, I have been hooked. They graciously facilitated my inauguration to electric motorcycles.

This week I have been enjoying the Kia Stinger GT-S. Kia describes the Stinger as a halo performance model. They say it is a GT car and not a hard-edged sports car.
