Battery powered ELECTRIC BIKE 0 - 60 0.8 seconds

[thepredsrule]

just like that....1,2,3!!!!

[markvann1]

Get next to a diesel electric freight train, (and ALL freight trains are diesel electric), and tell me how much noise it would produce in a sports car? You want horse power? Diesel electric trains have more than ANY conventional gas engine of the same size. Get used to it, the Earth ain't flat no more, boys, the electric monster cars are coming, and they will whip yo ass!

[133maxiboy]

GTFO ... that thing is a fucking rocket!

[MrNaythurein]

Lol.. funny>.....bad rider.....and bad bike.....

္ကခု do you understand that. is that mean fuck...

[96Bruninho]

HOLY SHIT!! THAT THING IS FAST!!!!!!!

[trbossdoggy]

0.8 seconds is real ????

[yzs4life]

time to put it on the charger for another week

[tsport100]

@yzs4life The entire run consumes only 0.5 kWh at a cost of $0.05. Aside from the fact the battery capacity is large enough for the bike to do 10 runs on a single charge, a 'top up' between runs takes only 10 mins!

[yzs4life]

@tsport100 oh well then thats a slight difference then haha dam

[99boyz]

No  Noise No Fuel= No thanks

Fucking Nerds

[Plaayboarding]

DUDE'S calm down after 1 race batteries are down

[lavalampex]

looks like pod racing

[Allupinmybiznes]

Christmass Morning.

What do you mean santa forgot the F$%#ing batteries!

[arniebarb123]

it must be a toyota : )

[3089280288]

Why the hell do I keep hearing some engine idling in these ev videos?

[Skillitopia206SG]

"YES, YES, MY DAD!"

[CiachoLover]

185000+ views on Youtube, 18 in the stands.

[Archergod]

Sounds like a freaking electric drill.

[vistigioful]

Were you trying to kill the wheel at first or something?

[nosupa]

@vistigioful they do that for more grip and it's like excercise for the tires.

[deirdrea100]

Guess what a woman sits astride!!! Awesome!

[WCGwkf]

the commercial before the video with jeff gordon was depressing

[snowmobilejon5000]

Is there a website that has the specs on the electric motor and battery / capacitor and controller setup. I go to school at Michigan Tech and I am very interested in starting a project. What are you using to charge the batteries? Assuming it is about a 500 amp circuit off a rigged generator but just wondering? Love the bike. LOL $0.07 per run which is sweet. Is it running high voltage or high current? or both

[tsport100]

@snowmobilejon5000 Type "Killacycle" into Google, you'll find all your answers.

[AghaKhanIII]

@snowmobilejon5000 Hey Fellow, this is the first time I have ever met MTU student on the internet, I graduated in 1994, very good school, beautiful place. lived in Upper hieghts (Deniell Heights Apartments) and Wardsworth Hall. Good Luck on your school.

[snowmobilejon5000]

@AghaKhanIII holly cow it is a small world, yeah they have new apartments in front of Upper heights now, I am off campus. I grad next Christmas and love it up there.

[RayzaBlayz]

how would the whiplash feel??

[mcgherkinstudios]

Has anyone seen my hoover?

[1shot1kill11]

That thing is fucking scary

[PedraumF]

The idle combustion engine in the background is more exciting than the electric bike at 100MPH...

[saul3861]

how long does baterry lastd

[kaoruhonjou]

That thing is a freakin monster at startup, I really thought it was going to flip at the beginning of its run.

[natix84]

Niesamowite że to silnik elektryczny

[MrBrian0081]

BADASS

[zxr400l4]

all well and good, but it wont upset greenpeace, where is the fun in that ?

[TurbulentV8]

I have 3 V8 cars and a Harley...

Fuck the atmosphere...

[Trimival]

Correct me if i'm wrong... That is instantanious horsepower, because i'm sure the electricity has some sort of regulator on it... As for a car, you need to wait till the car is in high RPM's because it obviously doesn't make top HP at 1000 RPM's but this bike has max power from the start, which makes it a lot faster..? Oh and that is interesting, the 7 cents per race and 14 races per charge w/ 5 minutes to charge. Need me one!!!



[JCGver]

@Trimival Yes electric motor have the fun habit of having the most torque at low rpm. So unlike combustion engines you have face ripping acceleration right from the start. If only we found a way store electric energie more efficently, say the energy density of petrol.

[quickguesswho]

At there drag strips they pull out the ear plugs, and put in the hearing aids.

[MyGta123]

he should stick some baseball cards in the spokes XD

[TheGamesmaster99]

Fuck yeah!! :D 

[iiPlay4Keepzz]

Can you imagine the G-Forces! Jesus Christ!

[nattsurfaren]

Question about the power of a123 batteries. I watched one episode of mythbusters where they tried to create a propeller based jet pack solution. They couldn't make it lift one man.

Question:

If you instead of taking the gasoline engine and replace them with two electric paramotors do you think it would be possible to make it able to lift one man with a123 batteries.

[saftykyle90]

i must have very nice how much

[maryjane123rd]

You don't see more of this because America has controlled energy for the last 100 years.

[blitxzar]

:o *WOW*

[Rustyrunaway]

i dont care what you say thats amazing

[racevws]

Can you not find an extension cord longer than a quarter mile?



[DigitaIGhost]

I dont care how "gay" some people call it, numbers dont lie... thats a fast damn bike.

[XxxThePsyCheMisTxxX]

if my 7 second bike sounds like a drill, I'll still ride it ;-)

[RatBastardCulhane]

Gay~!~!

[gabss15]

sounds like a drilling machine in the beginning, no offense... ;D

[gabss15]

@gabss15

when he's doing the burnout/ tire warm up

[negro0609]

Cool, this not explote!!

Awsome!!

[LeClassics]

Electrics, they're the future

[Stanger35thGT]

not as cool as the feeling of having mechanical power

[DigitaIGhost]

@Stanger35thGT but like all things associated with advancing technology, gasoline too will come to an end and be replaced... People used to say they'd never give up their horses in their daily lives as the main form of transportation. How many of them do you see on the road these days?

[idgvdfvdsfhvdf]

@DigitaIGhost whatever.

[mystevie31]

Electricity is SEXY!

[bigvalve01]

WoW! That is FAST!

I cant get over how quite they are!

In a good way lol

[filmrancher]

i like it. I like Running On Lithium much better. Fuunn

[landenmx]

they broke it up into 2 shows it was on the week after for the season finalle. ..lawless ind is currently holding new world record 7.47 @ 177 mph

[mraarongail]

So I watched American chopper. That bike hit 155mph. What were you talking about?

[landenmx]

check out TLC American Choppers September 30 th @ 9. You will see quickest fastest electrc bike in1/4

[averagejoe132]

sound like a remote control lol

[crazyfrog1963]

And with battery tech improving all the time it can only get faster

[the26thhour]

Wow, only 5min to charge!?!?!?!

What do u think the longevity would be for standard, non-speed record, use?

[landenmx]

your not the fastest change your title lmao

[dragbike56]

Hey Johnny Lighting you might get a charge outta this bike.......LOL

[GavinS1965]

Smart!

[superproprocombo]

what is the cost of one of these electric motors as compared to a conventional powerplant ?

[mickietjuh]

DAMN!!!! O.o

[DJChriZZ]

haha, yeah Tron lives :-) that's nice power

[sndd0138]

DIRTY!

[drummer1249]

Wow, seriously, fuck gas!

[ThatsLeoYKnow]

OMFG That gotta be some serious Gs

[LordSamuelJ]

lol I like the guy screaming at the end

[Evilurnie]

dayum! ride the lightning!

[ZClipze]

Theres something about it that makes it seem safer than a gas vehicle to ride, even though its lightning quick. Maybe the direct torque control I think!!?. Anyway, It's excellent, basically like a big 'toy'

[rotorman13b]

I like this!

[plazzax]

i just found my penis..!

[Pashworth1]

Would love to go touring using a bike powered like this

[proxyphobis]

sounds like a thing from star wars..

[flysn8k]

a123 batteries -> we use them for rc cars, lipolies are the future :)

[Abercrombiespanker]

that thing fucking cranks holy shit

[TheMorpheusbrasil]

JEES! AMAZING!

[BlaserTactical]

yeah, that bike rocks......how much torque does it generate?

[WTU208]

Tron lives...

[AlmostInfamous1]

how long to charge it though? or how many runs per charge? its not like gas pour it and run all week end!

[tsport100]

It uses 700 wh per run at a cost of $0.07. It takes 5 mins to charge and will do 14 x 168 Mph runs per charge!

[aspen02STi]

holy shit!!! small batteries so I believe it!

[madjimms]

Wow.... electric vehicles (if we get lithium cheap enough) are definitely the future...

Imagine across the country..... only stopping for five minutes (same as filling up an SUV) but for only pennies!

[Dogman36]

@tsport100 holy fuck!

one thing i noticed is that without the noise of an idling engine, you can hear the tires fighting for grip. sounds kinda like strong velcro! lol

[obliviousfafnir01]

@tsport100 Holy fraggin heck, batman! So when will this tech be incorporated into consumer vehicles at a price the general populous can afford? I mean, that's incredible!

[truthsmiles]

@tsport100 5 minutes to charge?!?! You need to call the idiots at Ford, Tesla, Coda, and anyone else who's making electric cars and show them how you do it. Electric cars are such a great idea, but the long charging time keeps me and I'm sure many other people from buying them...

[hermeshilbertjunior]

@tsport100 this burnout was weird but cool, no loud engines, just smoke! congrats!

[punky00uk]

@tsport100 Sure... 5 mins... Lol is it some space/NASA technology???

[tsport100]

@punky00uk No it's MIT nanophosphate technology.

[TheKaos90]

@tsport100 Ah nice , i can't even spell nanophosphate :)) , i thought you use a lot of Joe cells to charge it so fast

[MickWiser]

@tsport100 Is that a nano-capacitor?

[MrZuluMale]

@punky00uk a normal power outlet is 240v 10 amps or 2400watts. after an hour it 2400watt hours, 2400/700 equals roughly 3.5, 1 hour divided by 3.5 is under 18 minutes. 18 minutes from a standard ordinary household power point.

[TimpBizkit]

@MrZuluMale I saw the charger say something like 350 volts and 50 amps so 17.5kw.

[3droadrunner]

@tsport100 ...amazing!! and why don't we see more of this technology arond..?? i mean, in cars! to expensive?

[klumzyee]

also it can do about 5 or 7 (i forgot haha) runs per full charge (1/4 mile track)..

more info on their home page

[Pleasestopissinmeoff]

Holly crap. The lack of a loud noise with that speed is so amazing. IIIIIIIIII LIKE IT!

[bonelessman1]

thts wat u call fasttt "D

[remotesunset]

so much better powerband than a fuel car if someone discovery's a knew type of battery electric would be ten thousand times better (tough the sound sucks but that's my opinion ;))

[dustincreditable]

the sound of silence and just a tire hook is so fucking sweet... its like now you know me now you dont... im out...

[IHARTPIE]

HOLY SCRAP,

WHAT THE, NO GAS NO NITRO WOW, AS RICK FLAIR WOULD SAY WOOOOO.

Where are the battery boxes I did not see any thaaat is cooool.

Wow.

[lookn4thepowpow]

wonder what the 0-60 is?

[tsport100]

0-60 takes 0.8 seconds

[witecracker2]

@tsport100 O M G ! AWESOME

[GostBoo]

@tsport100 what the ......

[madtownmadman]

@lookn4thepowpow Did you fail to see the title of the video? Why else would you even bother click to watch a video of an electric dragster?

[immachallengerkid]

@lookn4thepowpow dumbass. why dont u read the title?

[koeszegi]

@lookn4thepowpow 7.824 sec, 168.48 km/h

[cromulentinnoc3nce]

HOLY SH!T. D:

[pgtv69]

under 8 seconds fuckin eh!

[TL1000S97]

Thank god! When there's no oil/fossile fuel left we still can enjoy dragracing. :)

Great "project-bike". Impressive launch.

[rogueangel2k]

1.21 jiggawatts!

[PillarLee]

a roaring hog

[alan3djoseph]

Hehehe, sounds like a powertool. Impressive though!

[bmiklavc]

ev are new and alredy the best

[SouthernRR4501]

I'd better enjoy the regular bikes with actual "sound" while they're still around. They'res just no replacement for the sound of a V-twin Harley.

[L33TFooMaster]

booo. i have to disagree. one look at the firing pattern of a harley, combined with the fact that they have one carb and one cylinder is better cooled than the other (which just so happens to be the one in the front... the one that doesn't get as much fuel thanks to the firing pattern of the engine).....

you can have your poor acceleration and your 30mpg and beloved "sound". i've moved on.

[SouthernRR4501]

I have the right to my own opinion. And I still think gas powered is BETTER. I just love the sound. You're just a mindless zombie that has to suck the spirit away from the motorcycle and everything else. Sorry, but it just doesn't cut the mustard with me.

[L33TFooMaster]

a zombie? i could easily say the very same thing about you. i simply have a hard time with harleys and their laughable engines. maybe if a harley was better designed i'd have more respect for them. noise = inefficient. 540 degrees of rotation with no power stroke = inefficient. you can't argue that because it's fact.

i don't want to start a flame war over this, so i'll end it now. just don't get butthurt because harley can't design an engine.

[SouthernRR4501]

I'm sorry I called you a zombie it was wrong. And I don't know anything about a Harley engine either. Heck, I don't even own a motorcycle too. If I did get up the courage to ride a motorcycle, and if I had alot of money, I'd probably get a Harley Fatboy motorcycle. I guess the electrics are nice, and I'm dumbass for liking the Harleys anyway. I'd enjoy my gas powered motorcycle. I guess I'm not worrying about effeciency or performance or anything like that, I just want to enjoy it.

[infamoswordz]

I want one anyone with the info send me a message asap.

[tejero2005]

casi na lo del ojo.

[ShadowWorks]

You know when Super Capacitors are mass produced you will be singing and dancing in the streets, recharge times in the seconds power range in the mega joule range.

[geofrancis2001]

electric motors are good for acceleration as they have max torque @ 0rpm

[rstarworker]

shouldn't it be 100% torque starting @ 1rpm ?

[electricityfan]

no 100% torque @ 0 rpm and the torque is still strong near the end of the rev range

[plbyrne]

Fantastic....keep it up guys

[isamike]

fuck me dead

[visualtonic]

+1! That is phenominal!

[DodgesUnlimited]

Wow! - Getting faster and faster ... When will you be challenging John Force in Funny Car? - Easily within 2 years I reckon, so Go For It!

p.s. Can I have a go? ;;;;;; !!!!

[orfy123]

What was the engine I could hear?
