Posted: 23:20 - 28 Jan 2017 Post subject: Energica Midnight Runner |
|

Let's stay on the topic with something that actually exists...
A cooperation of Energica (Modena, Italy) and Apache Custom Motorcycles (Verona, Italy) resulted in this very early 80's looking thing. The base of this build is the Energica Eva (e-motorcycle).
170 Nm, 200km range (in eco mode). Now for the interesting bit, it's got a onboard fast charger = 85% battery charge in 30 minutes.
Now that's not bad. I mean, 30 minutes to get enough power to cover 170 km sounds good to me. I even like the Dunstall Norton mixed with CBX 750 look.

It's hideous, they know it, we know it. They only cobbled it together for some publicity. Their regular bikes look like regular bikes, and if they were 1/4 of the price they might be on to something. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

It's also the usual whopper spun by electrowizards.
11.7 kWh * 85% * half an hour = 20 kW, near as makes no difference. That's a 240V @ 83A circuit, so first you'll need to pay to have your house re-wired, and then it'll burn down. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Italians are known for beautiful design and awful wiring.
If that is the extent of the design, I'm genuinely surprised they managed to get a photo of it on the road before it burst into flames. ____________________ Well, you know what they say. If you want to save the world, you have to push a few old ladies down the stairs.

Pass the eye bleach. Besides, on what planet is an almost silent electric motorbike a good idea. LPSL

The ongoing non-appearance of the those bikes is my litmus test that electric isn't ready for the mass market. When a non-subsidised, non loss-leader, 50+ mile range, 50+mph bike with a credible warranty appears in the £5000 - £7000 range, I'll sit up and take notice. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
