Battery powered motorbike

Battery pack lasts 4 years and can then be used for a further 20 as a storage power source.

No passenger seat available.

No storage.

200km range. BUT at what speed/engine load.

Ugly to my eyes.

3,5 h (optional 80 min) to charge

It needs to come with a hammock.

The motor is on the rear swingarm.  Holy unsprung weight, batman!
All instruments are in the mirrors.  And I thought a speedometer on the tank was not a great idea.
The break calipers look a bit small, in my opinion.

No autonomus features?
How primative!

When you back off on an electric vehicle, the motor does much of the braking making the discs less important.

Looks like a bass fishing lure I once had.

124 miles and wait 80 minutes for recharge? Forget the hammock, add a motel room. It would take a week to get to Nashville which usually takes about 8 hrs.

Ya, I wouldn't having one on a scooter to use to get into the back country for hunting. Seen one on auction site so I ckd it out and found Cabelas sold the thing at one time for 5-7k . think it sold for a couple k and the battery would cost over a k.  I passed on it.

Noticed it required a 230 V outlet.  Not many of us have a one in our garages (though I do for several electric motors).

So where are you going to charge this beast up?   I know there are several charging station in our small city, but not many out and about.  So you can only go out 60 miles then come home.   Doesn't sound like much fun.

                            Looks like an over sized bug catcher.

I have paid little attention to these electric vehicles. Is the standard for the charge stations 230 V also ?

Okay...outright...who the hell in their right mind would buy one of these?????

Aimed at the European market where most have 220v

Any place we have travelled in the UK or Europe is 220v with 3 different plug outlet configs' depending where you are. I bought a cube that has all 3 on it for recharging my phone. A lot of USB charging devices are dual voltage with auto switching.

That's one of the few things you wouldn't want your friends to catch you riding.
