Has anyone seen the video on mxptv face book page of josh hill riding an electric bike? Thing looks crazy fast, they seem to have come a long way.
If you get the chance watch on YouTube some of the Formula E racing. The sounds coming from the chassis of the vehicles combined with the tire noise is really interesting once the engine noise is removed.

which also makes me wonder if the gate makes any noise just before it drops....ude definitely hear it..
how would a start even sound like? total silence (maybe some casual banter being thrown around...birds chirping)...GATE DROP...wait what?!?
it goes BBBBZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Pit Row
I watch this and think Those folks I pissed off riding in the woods behind our house would still find something to bitch about.
The single biggest issue for the sport is a lack of places to ride, and the biggest obstacle is noise. Take noise out of the equation and a world of opportunity should open up. Backyard tracks, MTB like parks (check out videos of Duthie Hill near Seattle and picture that for electric motorcycles), etc. North of Seattle, a proposed mx track just lost the last of a series of lawsuits from the greenies, and it was potential noise that they really honed in on. These bikes will be game changers.
I'm a fan. A friend is doing some flat track testing for them as well and has largely positive comments.
