    I like it the future of motorcycling pure linear predictable power delivery, fewer moving parts.Only downside is range but I'm sure this will be addressed in the not too distant future.

    Range? Says 100-120 doesn't it (claimed) that's more than you'd get out of a Big Bang r1 all day long lol

    Think it's cool, but it'll never sound right, love a go on one though.

    Mahbe when the rapid charge technology for batteries is better developed, but until then it's an OK range but then a blooming long wait.

    bet that range is keeping to speed limits too? open her up and head home for a charge ;)

    plus they needed a siren on there to stop people walking out in front if it :eek:, to quiet for my liking, that and range is the only draw back of electric at the moment, electric motors do have bags of torque and power though :)

    but I guess its the future, just hope all the power stations can cope when everyone as an electric car/bike ;)

    we will need more than a few wind turbines lol ;)
