Topic: Isle of Man electric TTXGP
Posted: 12 June 2009 at 3:49pm
The electric motorcycle race/time trial is on today.
From practice they reckon they will break the old 50cc lap record with unlimited electric bikes, not sure if that is something to boast about or not. 50cc GP bikes are a far cry from mopeds though.
The lap is about 50km, fastest lap so far is 137kph average speed with about 160 top speed so it is not slow, but the 1000cc petrol powered bikes were averaging around 131mph (210kph).
Fastest bike so far is a conversion of a GSXR600 from Indian company Agni.
