That thing was waaay to quiet on the line, lol.  But wound up perty sweet on the way down.
I don't have a motorcycle, sold it ('85 Yamaha Venture Royale).  Haven't had a CB750 for over 40 years.

The battery pack and Electric motor in that thing is the future of Electric drive technology. The batteries are all Lithium Polymer and deliver max amperage with minimal heating, Awesome setup!!!

Cavmn,

Nice post.
That machine is not too different from mine.
All I need are those Lithium batteries !
In pic below , I am being shut down by a 96 volt Sparrow (left lane).
I was running 48 volts at the time.
Please note the excitement on the faces in the crowd. !

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

Yeah he is only like 1/3 of the brains but most of the money, this is what happens to rich yuppies that think they know what they are doing. Har har.

I have been following the Killacycle for about a year now. I think it's just the bee's knees that it is all electric. Damn... I want one.

I think I would put some modulating speakers on it with the sounds of a 4into1 cb750 motor roaring.
