Got any burning questions about electric motorcycles? We asked the Zero Motorcycles UK social media audience to send in their questions and myths they've heard about EVs.
We put them to Dale Robinson, Zero's Country Manager for the UK and Ireland, and Matt Drew from J&M Electrobikes, to get their expert responses.

Do you Think it would be a problem to use a type 1 adapter to type 2 to charge it?. Im considering to buy a Zero ds 12.5 but it has the j1772 and not type 2. But i have a charging point next to my House that has type 2.
With the math you mentioned, assuming 15kw battery, How come it charges fully using in 2 hours with 3kw charger and in 1 hour with 6kw charger?
Electric cars have accidents with people in parking lots, or pedestrians not hearing the vehicle, the same will be for E bikes. You hit either and you will be held accountable. Below is what is required to build a Tesla Y, on in a small quantity of the materials and energy to build an electric bike. “To manufacture the Tesla model Y you need: --12 tons of rock for Lithium (can also be extracted from sea water) -- 5 tons of cobalt minerals, 70 percent of world's supply comes from Congo mined by children. (Most cobalt is made as a byproduct of processing copper and nickel ores. It is the most difficult and expensive material to obtain for a battery.) -- 3 tons nickel ore -- 12 tons of copper ore You must move 250 tons of soil to obtain: -- 26.5 pounds of Lithium -- 30 pounds of nickel -- 48.5 pounds of manganese -- 15 pounds of cobalt To manufacture the battery also requires: -- 441 pounds of aluminum, steel and/or plastic -- 112 pounds of graphite The Caterpillar 994A is used to move the earth to obtain the minerals needed for this battery. The Caterpillar consumes 264 gallons of diesel in 12 hours. The bulk of necessary minerals for manufacturing the batteries come from China or Africa. Much of the labor in Africa is done by children. When you buy an electric car, China profits most. The 2021 Tesla Model Y OEM battery (the cheapest Tesla battery) is currently for sale on the Internet for $4,999 not including shipping or installation. The battery weighs 1,000 pounds (you can imagine the shipping cost). The cost of Tesla batteries are: Model 3 -- $14,000+ (Car MSRP $38,990) Model Y -- $5,000-$5,500 (Car MSRP $47,740) Model S -- $13,000-$20,000 (Car MSRP $74,990) Model X -- $13,000+ (Car MSRP $79,990) It takes 7 years for an electric car to reach net-zero CO2. The life expectancy of the battery is 10 years (average). Only in the last 3 years do you start to reduce your carbon footprint, but then the batteries must be replaced and you lose all gains made. But by all means, get an electric car. Just don't sell me on how awesome you are for the environment. Or for human rights.” .
A very good, well balanced conversation. Many thanks!
Excellent myth busting podcast, thanks!
Great podcast!
Useful video 👍🏻
Keep yourself to combustion engines, these bikes aren't nearly fit for duty as them BMW RT-Ps, let alone having them be electric
Amazing waste of money
Great stuff! Love to see my local service using electric bikes
That's great very minimal maintance also,I heard the maintance in a Gas ones is really expensive
