"That Black X1"

This smokey burnout was produced by 100% organic, American electrons. The pure sound of roasting tire is unlike anything that you will ever hear, and it is the ONLY sound that the black #58 SuperBike ever makes.



Burn rubber, not gas -S

you must be into making some power with electricity.

can't wait to see some pocketbikes in person powered by some nice electric motors. been thinking of doing it myself a long time ago to get around the nasty laws around here.

It's right there in any three-prong outlet.. costs under a dime to charge.

This is the quickest machine I have ever ridden.. funny, I've been thinking about a CF front fairing with over/under headlights for the X series SPBs.
It would make a FINE avatar

like mine you mean?

where did you get the electric x1 anyway? did you swap in an electric motor yourself?

I built this thing myself.. just like you.

Wanna play?! -S

Pics? Of the bike.....

You betcha! I'll snap a few more detail shots in the AM.
Thanks to Insyder for catching these..

Here's another one caught during a pass at the 2004 NEDRA Nationals in Woodburn Oregon. my fastest drag-time was a 19.159 second 1/4 mile run at 59.69 MPH..

DAYUM!! Woah. That thing is putting out some power! Specs?

Ya', it's a HyperBike. It's got three fists full of torque.

Spec's-

-48 Volts @ 16 Amp hours AGM lead/acid batteries

-650 Amp programmable controller set @ 50% output, or 325 Amps.
Note: that was its setting for this meet. It can go quicker and faster by turning UP the output and re-gearing.

-15 peak horse power axial air gap brushed DC permanent magnet motor.

HOT ****..60MPH...for a few reasons i truly belive you as well. STevil- how much did EVERYTHING cost to put that together- parts?

Stevil i think you shoudl show that timeslip pic on the superbike/midbike ofrum and blow all the other petrol heads away. Thats perswaeded me to go electric..but it sounds expensive and lots of hard work...im up for that though.

411.. The #58 machine has run, and dominated the last three ************ races in Vallejo.. in the Midi class.

One is an anomoly.
Two is a pattern.
Three is a movement.

The Midi scene is sooo hip..at least 10 riders at each meet! After the first time I showed up and beat everyone, a new class for electrics was created. Since then, I have seen the checkered flag before everyone.. my electric has won every main since. This is not me pounding my chest or trying to pee farther than you, this is me giving the HEADS-UP to be looking over your shoulder for something that you won't hear coming-up behind you, and you won't be able to catch, unless you're riding one too.

The E's have been recognized by an official PocketBike racing organization.. the first time that I heard of such a thing in the good ole' US of A!!

There are two e tattoos, like this one, on the track at Vallejo to signify my contribution to our sport.
