I wonder if this is for real.
If so, it looks like electric RV's might be just around the corner.
I am hooked on electric. I just purchased myself a Model Three Tesla, AWD (two motors) after owning a couple of electric motorcycles.
BTW, IMO, the Zero DS 6.5 is a perfect motorcycle to take on an RV trip. It only weights 318 lbs and it can easily get itself up a ramp on a trailer hitch under its own power. No clutch and a very good slow speed throttle response. Easy to walk with up the ramp. Does not compare to any ICE bike.
When boondocked, I charge it with my Onan gas generator, inefficient to use gas on an electric motorcycle, but it works. I also use a quick charger in addition to the bike's on-board charger. The bike has proved to be very handy on RV trips.
I checked the waveshape of my 4KW Onan RV generator and it is surprisingly good so I felt safe charging the bike with it. Here is what my generator output looks like under load.
Not quite a perfect sinewave, but certainly good enough!
And look at the specs of this new Tesla Roadster. Seems an electric RV is not too far away.
