Now without the incentives and if you don't mind going Chinese or used, you can do much better then the Enertia for a cost efficient commuter.

I agree completely. The main limiting factor for me concerning the electric motorcycles is the short range. Even if you buy the motorcycle primarily to commute to work, you can still ride a gasoline bike for long distances on the weekends. Filling the fuel tank with gasoline is a convenient, fast way to "recharge" the internal combustion engine.
