SUNDEEP GAJJAR AKA THE MOTOGRAPHER / KARAN SINGH BANSATTA
ZERO SR/S

Right from the moment they started coming in, I didn’t really have anything against EVs. Yes, I did think about what life would be like without any inline-4 or V4 symphony in it. But not to the extent that it makes me hate electric vehicles altogether. So whenever one comes my way, I am more than happy to have some fun on it. And I had more than some fun with the Zero SR/S.

As most of you might know, I am someone who is fairly creatively inclined. And for people like me, the dayto-day racket can get a bit much. And this was one of the things that I liked the most about the Zero SR/S. As I threw it into every bend with more zeal than usual just to have something shatter through the eerie calm, I realized that I did not need to. I realized that I was enjoying it as is. No sound, no drama, no nothing; just a man and a machine whooshing through the woods in harmony.

Anyway, what is Zero SR/S? A fully-faired electric motorcycle that looks and goes like a conventional one. It is a motorcycle that exists to show that electric vehicles are not confined to being unsightly or too lowbrow. It looks good, goes fast, and handles well. In fact, if I have to look at the motorcycle head-on, it reminds me of that PCJ600 from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. And if that was not an aspirational motorcycle for children, I do not know what else could be.
