A Japanese vehicle manufacturer unveiled the prototype of a new electric motorbike carrying a hybrid magnetic motor, which can run almost noiselessly up to 180 kilometres (112 miles) on one charge. Tokyo-based Axle Corporation says that the battery of the next-generation electric vehicle motorbike can be charged at home, in the same way as a cellular phone. It takes a little over 6 hours to fully charge the battery, and the vehicle's maximum speed is capable of reaching 150 kilometres per hour (93 miles per hour).
The company says the futuristic motorbike enjoys high energy efficiency thanks to a state-of-the-art magnetic motor which is a hybrid between a electromagnet and a permanent magnet. The new motor, called SUMO, short for "super motor," is housed inside the bike's rear wheel. The manufacture says the new motor is seven-times more cost efficient than gas-powered scooters.
Daisuke Ito, a professional racer who test rode the EV-X7 prototype, said it could potentially replace machines we now see in motor races. "I just feel that in the near future, we'll be seeing these kinds of electric motorbikes running all around town. And when that happens, conventional vehicles could disappear from motor racing, too, and well be competing only in electric vehicles."

At risk of wading in on a pointless youtube discussion... Magnets can't produce (much) energy on their own, the motion of a magnet through a coil can produce electricity but the energy comes from the motion, not the magnet (this is a dynamo). In this case the bike is powered electrically by what is probably a DC motor (not a dynamo). That said your comment was massively more intelligent than our friend, "You're stupidity = epic?" Really?
Ever heard of a dynamo dumb-ass? Look shit up before you commit to your retarded statements. Also it's a good point to make sure you're not making simple spelling errors when insulting a persons intelligence. .
lol,so funny video,me laugh at funny video big surprise when helmut cums of and its a wee monkey,lol,i said fukin lol mofos sha mon mon mon heee heee mofos
