New riders don’t know where this is?!

There is a gear reduction box, but there’s not a transmission that changes gears. The motorcycle has exactly one gear. Control of power is done with amps. Voltage is what is available at the battery. Power is amps multiplied by volts: W = A * V When the motorcycle is sitting at the starting line ready to conduct a race, the battery voltage might be 250 to 400 V, however the amperage will be zero: 0W = 0A * 400V When the gate drops and you twist the throttle all the way to the stop power will go up as follows: 37kW (50hp) = 100A * 370V

It will have a license plate, so no green sticker required. But, it should qualify for one (and I will put one on it).

Well, any battery electric vehicle is indeed “zero emissions”. The semantics are that if there is a non-Zero emission source of electricity (like a gasoline generator), then certainly THAT’S not Zero Emission. I have had 35 solar panels on my roof at home, generating all the Zero Emission electricity that I need. For your ecological concerns about batteries, I presume gasoline is ok?

There are still lots of MX tracks around. It looks like Pala MX is now Fox. Barons Oaks is still running. Up north are lots more. Why no electric? Are you from Saudi Arabia? ;-)

I know a guy bidding on it. Even if it doesn’t, this bike can be built by somebody else.

You still riding Husky? ive ridden the Super Moto bike in downtown, as a demo. TOTALLY FUN!!! Then, a few days ago, a buddy of mine got the MXR bike. I rode it behind his shop in a field. Stupid powerful. I knew I wanted “street legal”, so I think I bough the last ALTA EXR in San Diego.

I think they say 30-60 miles... about what any gasoline motocross bike will do. 25 minute Motos 1.5 hours to recharge. i need to make a plug on my tow vehicle to charge the bike in the pits.

I haven’t ridden in 6 years, and on whim, I bought an Alta EXR dual sport 50hp all-electric bike. No oil, gasoline, air filter, clutch, gears, etc, should fit my lazy bike maintenance methods quite well. Of course, cleaning, suspension set-up and regular maintenance of tires, wheel bearings, chain, sprockets and brake pads will still need attention. Plus, everything I break, like the bars, plastic, lights, etc, will need some of my labor. I’m looking forward to exploring San Diego county, and also doing some MX track time. I’ve been out of it long enough to not know where folks are riding these days!
