@ZeroKenshin Electric engines beat combustion in any concern. control, effeiciency, torque, wear... The only problem is the energy source.

Have you heard of the Telsa car? 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds! Imagine that, but in bike form. In the near future, electric motorcycles will compete with combustion engines. Stay tuned.

o.O?? Electric Superbikes beating Ducati? you must be kiddin' me, combustion engine definately burst up more torque than electric engines, no doubt its enviroment green but for racing? i wouldnt count on em "peace" =)

you'll change your mind when an electric superbike starts beating ducatis and jap bikes in motogp. i heard these things have 100ft.lbs. of torque from zero rpm.
they have to have swappable batteries and "battery stations" everywhere so it'll be as convenient as the present superbikes.
