One thought that I had is what if Polaris were to buy Zero and start selling them through their Victory and other power-sport dealers? That would be quite a combination. Polaris has a ton of money (they just bought the Indian Motorcycle Company, as an example - what are they going to do with that?) and lots of suppliers, dealers and distributors throughout the rest of the world. If they wanted to get into the electric motorcycle/power-sport business (such as electric snowmobile, personal water craft, lawn tractors
, etc.) they could leapfrog Brammo in the field.
However, my guess is that it is going to take a while before they can get an idea of what is actually going on at Zero and what its potential future might be to a company like Polaris.
