It was a cool summer morning overlooking the pier in Santa Cruz, California, when I first watched Zero CEO Sam Paschel pull the cover off the company’s latest electric motorcycle.

Fortunately I was doing exactly that barely an hour later.

The company was kind enough to invite me out to Santa Cruz, California, to test the motorcycle in Zero’s hometown.
