A Police Department in Scotts Valley, California has recently added a cool new electric motorcycle to it’s range of motor vehicles for their officers to ride on through the city. This new motorcycle is developed by Zero Motorcycles and is the DS model. This model was made to handle the streets and the dirt in a quick and steady fashion.
The new bikes won’t be used on a regular basis (yet) but are currently for special events and park patrols.
One Scotts Valley policeman says this about the bike, “(You can) approach people in say a stealthy mode, compared to an endurance motorcycle, which are a lot louder,”. This type of approach can be helpful for the Scotts Valley crime busters.
“The motorcycle has a range of up to 50 miles and can top out at 67 mph.”
