Have you all checked there oficial web page? They may be onto something as it breaks 160MPH and high 7's. Pretty impressive for electric!!!!!

 
AGATT!!! And half a brain would help...

Impressive speed. Info from the website etc is interetsing.

Eletrcical motors like that are, All Torque All The Time (ATATT).

seen that... sad! *******!! :lol:

that said I would like to see a REAL usable electric/hybred bike

 
That's why engineers and owners hire PROFESSIONAL riders.

If it CAN go wrong, it WILL go wrong...at the worst possible time with dire consequences.

That's also why REAL racers wear leathers, gloves and helmets.

Remember, someone with skills can make really dangerous actions look normal.....

....and everyone CAN'T do it!

From his website:

I’m Fine (scapes and cuts) Bike is a little bent….

First off, I’m just a bit scraped up. Embarrassed of course. I had not intended the bike to move in the soapy water, just spin the tire.

Got it slowed down to about 20 mph. Front wheel is bent, as are front forks. Cowling is not nearly as pretty as it was.

Battery box took a hit from the front wheel. Almost certainly, some cells were shorted. No smoke. No fire. Ultra safe cells. Had these been anything but A123 Systems Nano-phosphate cells, shorts would have caused a serious fire.

No major damage. We will have it fixed in short order.

Important to note: Area in front of the bike was CLEARED of ALL PEOPLE. NO ONE was at risk but me. Concrete on both sides of area.

Yes, I am an ***** for not wearing a helmet. :-/

 
Clever guy, impressive bike, running it on a public pavement, with no gear on ....stupid.

Glad he is OK and hope he got some positive publicity from it.

They are saying Voltage = HP and Torque = Amps

Moreover, they are able to adjust HP and Torque on the fly. Pretty cool if you ask me.

Anybody want more HP out of their FJR...just add a couple more volts to her and there you go.

 
Well, he's a dumb-*** for not having any gear on. However, he did state that he isn't the person who normally rides the bike, which makes him an even BIGGER dumb-*** for trying to show off on camera.
