My father love the staggered slow thump of a V-twin engine and there are also may people who still love the silent killers on the road. However, an American motorcycle builder is about to launch a new hybrid motorcycle to meet both the opposites in one. It can be powered by an electric motor, a regular internal combustion engine or both together and delivers almost 200bhp.
This great masterpiece is actually the result of collaboration between Lawless Industries and Orange County Choppers, who was the designer of a drive system that allows the rider to choose between the normal thud of a booming V-twin motor or the silent whirr of an electric power plant or both.
V-twin engine hybrid motorcycle includes following main features:
• A touchscreen computer control system
• Cameras on the front and back
• Two electric motors
• The regular petrol powered V-twin
This hi-power hybrid also produces 200 bhp if all the engines fire at once. One electric motor on its own produces 50bhp, enough for roughly 60 mph, whereas two electric motors running together deliver around 100bhp. The bike will be shown publicly on US TV on ‘American Choppers’ for the first time this week.
Hmm..my father choice is not bad.
