i live in central Texas, our electric company is atmos energy that charges 0.13 Kwh.

Answer
You are comparing a far lighter but very inefficient vehicle (motorcycle) to a far heavier but very efficient vehicle (Nissan Leaf,) and I am left to wonder what you want.
Your bike is getting 60 mpg on a good day. The Leaf will get a little less than twice that with no oil changes or other maintenance.
As a heavier and enclosed vehicle the leaf will give you more protection from the elements.
The motorcycle insurance is cheaper than that of a car because the smart people there have noticed it is more likely that you will be killed on a bike than you will kill someone. This will probably make the motorcycle cheaper with more personal risk...
and lets face it ... thrills... although the first time I drove an EV it reminded me of the acceleration of a 750cc bike.

Does anyone have any experience of a Synergie Extreme E-Bike Mountain Bike?
Essex Ron
I am tempted to buy an electric mountain bike but don't know anyone who has one.
Yes, I KNOW it's better to cycle, but I do plenty of exercise and want to use an electric bike as an alternative to the car now and again.
So are they any good? What is their range? And do they cope with hills?
Answer
they are a piece of S@*#. They don't go up a semi-steep hill and they don't go to far on hills.
