Conclusion - forever young
It is, of course, a toy, one for older children who want to (and can) spend at least 17,290 euros on their gift. Hear my words: Every penny of it is well invested!
Before I forget it: I have now studied the data sheet. The Duc is not only up to date in terms of engine and chassis, but also in terms of assistance systems: series are Wheelie Control, Curve ABS from Bosch, Traction Control, Ride By Wire and three driving modes ...
... not even this prejudice lasts more.

Digital motorcycling
Many of these sensations are eliminated by the digital form of motorcycling. The Zero is simply fast, sour fast. A spin on the throttle lever is enough, nothing more. If you like this, or for whom this immediate implementation is the attraction, the Zero is a clear purchase recommendation for you.
The question of each test is to find out whether the test object is good or bad. The Zero SR/F is not only a good motorcycle, but a very good motorcycle, under the restrictions of all batterielectric vehicles (expensive, short range). The Zero is a great motorcycle overall and in the sum of its high-quality components. However, one that digitally decouples the driver with what she does best – merciless passage without end.
And I've come to realize that so far, I've assumed that my definition of driving pleasure is largely about engine power – now I know that the way this performance is created is important to me.
