World's Fastest ELECTRIC Motorcycles | 408 km/h - Faster than Kawasaki H2R! 

That’s true. It’s only up from here.

No, usage and mining of lithium must be stopped immediately.

Yep! Lighter weight, no more oil, spark plugs, spark plug wires, no more coolant and intercooler, no more transmission, clutch, alternator, no more fuel injection or gas tank and absent of mufflers…all simplicity just like e cars.

Why not just exchange a charged standardised battery cartridge instead of recharging for hours

@@oldman2800 Exactly! But manufacturers are afraid of aftermarket battery packs. It will happen eventually though. EV battery tech is somewhat of a black box & Battery packs are probably less safe compared to a gas tank right now 😂😂 Most battery packs are simply adapted versions of batteries made for power banks & laptops. There will be significant improvements in the next decade, and 2-wheel EVs will start outperforming and out-selling gas bikes within that time too. A decade. But it'll happen.

Wow! What sort of range?

don't race a certain four-door electric sedan

There is no law against acceleration!

@@Slash1066 In Arizona they have an infraction called "excessive acceleration", and its all 8 points at once.

@@johngalt97 Really? That's insane!

Yea I'm only 17 but would love to have a sportbike, I have a electric moped, but even that makes my mom mad and worried

@@moneer7139 motorcycles can be scary, you can be extremely careful but it takes one person to ram you off the road and injure your severely. I understand your mother's concern you're only 17 and is just entering life, and like I said it can end a life very quickly. My wife is the same way and gets worried, but ultimately if you can afford it, you can drive it, and just do the best you can to be careful. I wouldn't worry about it though, I'm sure her mind will change, especially if you show her how good and responsible you are. Make her feel better by getting a dash cam and use an app like life360 that detects crashes (God forbid) if it ever happens. I wish the best 😊

Hi viz gear - Denali running spots and loud exhaust and 134 air horn -- no way in hell will go electric -- would quit motor biking first

💯

Pretty sure that's why there's a horn on the bike.

Put it into laws so that all electric bikes make some standardised noise. I speak as a motorcycle rider. My ride is 2006 Yamaha R1. But my goal is to get something like this ride or make it myself...

Few Energica's are already available (it's not an Ego but I currently sailing my Ribelle to by a new one)... Strike will probably never be.

Ignore Lightning for your own safety. The EGO is awesome and I think it's fair to say they are a well built bike regardless of which model you get. The Ego deserves an award for one of the best looking electric sport bikes on the road. Damon & Arc Vector might be the best contender for hot looking bike with sport bike aspirations but I have no access to hard data on it's build quality or anything else. I've tested several Zero's, they were fast enough for my tastes and also reasonably comfortable to ride although some of the ergo's of the dual sport model bothered me some. I'll be testing some Energica's this year.

LOL, an used Lightning... The bike doesn't really exist yet, it's a joke. Like Tesla Cybertruck.

Newer Zeros and HD Livewire have traction control and "Rain Mode". Other models might too, I haven't checked them all.

No it actually doesn't change anything, if you've been riding street long enough on powerful bikes the 'dynamics' of it are all dependant on the rider. I've ridden sport bikes, adventure bikes and even bmw's 1.6 litre sport touring bike in rain, snow, icy roads. The outcome of any ride is almost entirely dependant on the skill set of the rider. All that aside, Bosch and other safety component manufacturers have been working with the established players in the E-Moto market to create and integrate all the fancy ABS capabilities found in mid-high end sport bikes.

I can get my Tesla do have a wheel spinning, even going full throttle around a corner on a wet street. The traction control is so smooth you wont feel anything. There is no throttle body which needs to be closed and will react with lag, rhe electric motors can adapt their torque output with 20k hertz. EVs are safer in that regard.

Wrong all modern bikes have traction control ebike have it too

You have an emergency braking system it’s called your brain. What motorcycles do need is a warning system to interact with drivers who use the sorry mate I did not see you excuse ( missile system maybe!! :)) Excellent riding gear with airbags work well to.

Stick to something nice and safe then with 4 wheels..😉

@@classicraceruk1337 It's amazing how few people engage this nice bit of organic tech between their ears.

@@k1ortia what an utter ignorant remark, did you not read my handle?

Paramount, Star Trek 🖖🏻 :OOO

Stronger Serji >> It's always the same story: "Cheap, Fast, Good -- choose any two."

Far from it, they are more expensive and actually weigh more for the amount of mileage covered than most equivalent designs. That's improved some but not enough for many enthusiasts. The market has been making significant strides towards better component tech since electrics gained a foothold in the automotive market.

Read your comment im 20 years again, when only a minority in the western world will still use gas vehicles. Of course the technology needs to trickle down. Be glad there are early adopters investing their money to further advance the technology for you

Voxan, really? Wait a second, I need to refill my Bike...I'll try to find a Charging Station and a Dry Ice Vendor LOL FFS SMH

@@isaacmadhavan That's a drag bike, and anyone that's really into electric stuff isn't all that surprised at the full potential of 0-100 potential of electrics. That is a damned cool record to set though!

@@Enonymouse_ Exactly! A superb record indeed. However, "King Kong" didn't seem to know what "turboyoshi" referred to and so I put up that link.

And with a range of 500 meters.

Correct. Even on a racing circuit you cannot sustain 408 km/h for more than just a few seconds or you become space dust in the next corner. There are some experimental solid state battery chemistries that promise to increase autonomy by quite a lot, we should hopefully see them in a few more years.

Its hard to impres u...u thnk ur smart guy u cant even make a pedal bike hahaha

@@soulwick200 .....speak like you aint using yourself as example. Oh surely you made tons of bikes in yo garage eh, do upload one for us to judge you lol.

400 mile range in an e-bike would be impossible on a single charge, if you suspend disbelief and ignore commonly accepted (proven) standards/practices of engineering and physics, you could hit 400 in your sleep. I'd settle for one that mirrors my actual bike usage of 150 a day as a commuter/grocery getter.

H2R isn’t street legal. Take the busa.

@@CaptainOverLoad Can you not modify a H2 to be the same as an H2R?

@@DragoMusivini depends on your local government sadly I’ve been to a few bike meets where some riders have one that they make street legal mirrors turn signals exc, however it all boils down to knowing local level government regulations. It’s manufactured as a track bike, and it’s $50k so you would be spending more and trying to appease the local dmv to give you the green light and meeting there requirements. Yes, it’s possible. Is it possible everywhere? No, emission heavy states have stricter regulations. H2 is fast topping out at 200+ and is the street legal version. The H2R tho is a entire different beast. Both are fast bikes. I’ve test drove one at Sebring raceway and was shitting brick. They are scary, and I’m a torq junky.

@@CaptainOverLoad But do bikes go through strict inspection regulations like cars to per year and if not how cannot it not be easy to do it if money is not a factor.

@@DragoMusivini I answered your question incorrectly you asked if the h2 could be modified to H2R levels, and I have yet to see that. H2R has carbon fiber body parts, I think one body fairing is like 10k so they are not cheap, you would probably spend more trying to upgrade and piece together a upgrade than trying to buy the H2R and jumping through hoops to make it street legal. H2R has a massive turbo and intake manifold in the front you could probably drop weight and add more top end but unless your doing a full engine and body swap I don’t believe you would hit H2R speeds. Once you get above 200mph every mph faster requires leaps of engineering. The fact that Kawasaki was able to push out the H2R still impressed me.

Except the Arc Vector, it is $123,000. Who has that kind of money to spend on a motorcycle.

@@trickmustang1994 Not true. Arc Vector has a 0-60 of 2.7

@@FrostmoonPlayz he said all of these bikes are cheaper than the h2. The Arc is way more expensive. I wasn't talking about the speed or 0-60.

@@trickmustang1994 ah, well, i suppose that's true. Video was about speed, so that's what i assumed he was talking about. my b

S-Plaid and the Model 3 both are crippled in firmware for various reasons by Tesla (despite both of them model S and Model 3 sharing similar hardware). Comparing them to other fast vehciels is kind of like racing a stock Miata against a Koenigsegg. If they were fully unlocked they might give the H2R a serious run for its money, as it's always been though 2 wheeled vehicles usually out accelerate most cagers right off the starting block (electric or otherwise) but eventually when top speed becomes a concern things even out.

Yes you can, both Energica, Harley & Zero are, but charging time depend on Battery size and on-bord AC chargers (1.5 kw/h for HD, 3 kw/h for Energica and from 3 to 12 kw/h on potions on Zero). Both Energica and HD has CCS speed charging (40 min on DC charging stations), but not available on Zero. All the other are not really available on the market, and some mores looks like scams unfortunately.

@@LeGriffon1453 - Thank you very much for your reply 🧐

@@haraldpettersen3649 You welcome, if you seek more information, have a look on NewZeroland channel.

@@LeGriffon1453 - Thanks for the advice 😎

Hey boy shhh, just shhhh

If it proves to be anything close to the specs you say, it has some hope of emergence in the american market. However 25kw is not a lot, raw power does matter some. The electric bikes coming from China are absolutely frightening, they are underpowered and their frames are basically built with spaghetti grade welded steel.

This! This is the one of the main reasons why ebikes dont work. That and the weight.

HD bought someone else's start-up company and slapped their name on it, increased it's sale price to be higher than any other on the market save for maybe Energica's top trim EGO sport bike.

Are crash tests for motorcycles even a thing?

@@johngalt97 I guess for squids they’re lol 😝.

No bike holds up in a crash .. only maybe honda goldqing type of bike .. just get an airbag vest !!!

There is a lack of uniformity in standards on how total mileage is calculated; During early days where it was Zero and Energica was out there but struggling to have a presence in the US market, with no other contender worth mentioning.. Speeds were calculated based on urban travel with the assumption that you weren't going to be going faster than 30-35mph. Urban travel would also permit more use of regenerative braking as well. Zero used to have a disclaimer on their site in small print that they took down after I found it, explaining how they arrived at the seemingly crazy number of 150 miles. If I were to do a consistent 35-40mph on my 850cc ICE bike, my present 200-ish mile range would actually be 375 miles with 4 gallons. Instead of 70-75 mph. I've tested several Zeros in real world conditions of being my commuter bike for a day, my commutes typically involve me traveling 60-65 mph for 85 miles in a day with very little urban travel. Optimistically they have about 100-110 mile range without the expanded battery, I'd say Energica's models may be similar to that if people ride like I do.

@@Enonymouse_ Agreed. At ZEV Electric, we test on the highway at a steady speed. Others use computer programs to calculate based on a dyno. We use a 120 mile long dead flat stretch of highway from Maryland to Virginia along the ocean. Anything else is just conjecture. We have no way to replicate every possible instance of rider weight, his "sail" area, the degree of grades or undulating territory, effect of temperature and humidity, etc. on air density. Its a common trick in some EV scooters to claim big range, then learn the speed was only 15 mph (or less).

I'm riding an Energica, and it got much more torque ;-)

It’s also not street legal in America.

The H2R is a production bike, and I know what your referring to. It had to be modified by kawasaki for the record attempt. Kawa told the rider they literally had 30 seconds to hit the speed or they would die from ruptured tires (tire integrity would fail after 30 seconds at those speeds).

h2r is boss these EB's are for kids

But petrol bikes are struggling.. Electric bikes are evolving... Ectric bikes can go 700-800 kmph top speed thats the scope which petrol bikes fail... There is no more reasearch improvise possible for petrol bikes ...least was the turbo charge..beyond that bike will vibrate a lot...bcoz its mechanical based drive....not electric motor based which is stable n less vibration

....the only problem is, bikes designed after comic book sci fis appeal to very small community of people who has a taste for pop culture reference. Majority of consumers wants a generic familiar looking product. The Honda NM4 is an example, that looked bit something like Akira bike....didn't sell very well only because it looked odd for pedestrian consumers.

Second best .. look up verge ts pro !!!! I tested this bike its really fast !!!! Only 30k and big batt and fast charging !!!

Harley just continuing their legacy of overpriced and underpowered. They do make a nice looking bike though.

@@turboyoshi591 meh. The livewire is a tiny bike. And the motor runs the wrong way. I'm a bigger fan of energica and zero styling.
