This year the 3rd TT Zero race will be held again on the Isle of Man. Last year Mark Miller won on the awesome Motoczysz bike, you can see a review video here of the race from last year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6dCR5Eht5M

Last year Mark Miller averaged just under 100mph around the circuit and this year they will probably brake the 100mph average speed record for electric bikes. This is a new video on YouTube that shows their brand new E1PC bike for the race: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8P5PprLy9w&feature =player_embedded

If you have a chance check out the races, I thin they are very interesting.

its great to see technology applied to something we all love, but as for the future of performance motors, id have to say that if it goes that way, i will put a playing card and clothespin on my spokes to sound better.

I rode a zero. It wasnt fast but the torque was good.

I don't really care too much about how it sounds. "Full torque at 0 RPM and no shifting," though... *grins*

If Brammo would ever actually release the Empulse, I'd consider buying one - I could replace 90% of my riding with that bike with range to spare.

AND, if I put solar panels on my roof to charge a battery pack that charged the bike at night, I could wheelie past a Prius while out-smugging them. : D
