| MotoCzysz Puts the Sizzle in Electric Motorcycles |
| 2010-04-01 19:19:49 |
We are in the midst of an electric motorcycle revolution, and nowhere is that more obvious than on the racetrack. The new technology is not about tweaking the status quo. It’s about shattering it. And that’s just what Michael Czysz plans to do at the TT Zero motorcycle race. The head guy at MotoCzysz — that’s pronounced MotoSizz, as in sizzle — is returning to the Isle of Man for another run at the famed Mountain Course on a supersexy electric motorcycle that is sure to make your heart skip a beat. Last year’s bike, the equally gorgeous E1PC, used three motors and 10 lithium-ion batteries. Czysz says it would do zero to 120 mph in seven seconds, but we’ll have to take his word for it. Mechanical gremlins sidelined the bike during the inaugural TTXGP electric motorc...

| A gearless electric motorbike for the trendy |
| 2010-04-01 19:19:49 |
Eco Factor: Concept zero-emission electric motorbike. The HMK 561 by designer Ralf Kittmann is a concept zero-emission electric motorbike that uses its carbon fiber frame for electricity conduction, putting an end to those messy cables that transmit power from the battery to the in-wheel motors via the handlebar. Carbon fiber is a highly conductive material that can transmit power to drive the lights and the motors in between the rims of the HMK 561. Moreover, the bike also feature a regenerative braking mechanism that turns the wheels using a counter-turning axle without any gears or chains. Article from ecofriendLooking to buy a Motorbike?

| 2010-04-01 19:19:49 |
MV Agusta F4 1100 CC The cheapest one in the top 3 is the MV Agusta F4 1100 CC. Lots of power, 315 km/h (195 mph) topspeed and a great design for just $135,000 (£89,795). MV Agusta F4 1100 CC MTT Turbine Superbike Second is the MTT Turbine Superbike. $185,000 (£123,053) will give you one of these. It comes with a Rolls-Royce turbine engine that was designed to lift a helicopter. The engine gives you 300+ hp to play with and a topspeed of 365 km/h (227 mph). MTT Turbine Superbike According to Guinness Word Records, the MTT Turbine Superbike is the most powerful production motorcycle ever. It is even more powerful than the Ducati Desmosedici RR, which I believe was the fastest production motorcycle in the world. Still, I’m not sure if I will consider it a normal motorcycle or not....
