Want a screaming fast motorcycle that is green too? Does that sound like a contradiction? Well not anymore. Thanks to the entrepreneur behind the world’s first zero-emissions motorcycle race is back with a limited-edition competition-caliber electric superbike we’ll see on the track next year.
The Mavizen TTX02 unveiled Tuesday in Las Vegas marries top-shelf components and racy styling with a lithium-ion battery pack and two electric motors in a package Mavizen says can do 130 mph. Azhar Hussain built it to provide a ready-made machine that anyone can ride in the 2010 TTXGP, the second running of the green grand prix he launched this year.
“It’s a competitive platform to start developing and tweaking,” Azhar Hussain said. “This is about giving everybody access to the best tools so they can go racing and have a stab at making history.”
