Las Vegas Supercross' final line up is set. 15 sec board goes up. You can hear someone coughing in the audience. Board goes side ways. You can hear the gate going down and how the chain is rattling.. It's good to think about enviroment and our future, but please, can something still be holy and untouched?
I've ridden this bike, its fun and an interesting experiment. It will take years of research in battery technology to make it as practical as a gasoline motor. We also need to remember that electric power must be generated some how? Either by natural gas, coal, hydro, or nuclear power, which is not cheap or friendly to the planet.
Adding solar panels to this machine, would not improve the performance or range with our current technology.
so as i understand main problem isnt the electrical engine but the batteries which can handle as much power as they can by now but if theyd be more powerfull than the engine could make power way more than inner combustion engines these days and the bike would weigh way under 100 kilos?
imagine you can ride in your back yard without bothering the neighbours. you can ride in the woods without bothering the animals. would be great to have 2 batteries. so you can change them and go on riding while the spare batterie loads. very nice stuff.... cant wait till they get cheaper. i could buy 20 125cc bikes for that money... but i could not drive them alot because they are too noisy.
@TheLuketic162 Oh please - you just scared people might think you're not half the stallion you pretend to be when sitting on a conventional mx bike with cumbustion engine. Keep on sending soldiers to oil-exporting countries and pay the bill for the gas you need to impress persons you probably don't even know - with blood.
Zero looks more like a traditional dirtbike. I like the look of that one much better. Seems more serious too. Why don't they put a realy good freestyler on one to do some real jumps? (if it's capeble of that, that is)
goes like a 250

if they could somehow incorporate solar power technology into the bike,it would be awesome.

The whole bike needs upscaling.
Bigger frame, wheels motor and batteries.
Its still just a kiddy bike

IMO it needs 60volts and a 60AH battery instead of the 48v and 40AH unit. As soon as this happens, I will buy one no matter what the cost.
