Au TT il y a aussi une classe moto électrique depuis quelques années, et ça l'air très performant.

I was there. Happy to answer any questions you have.
I don't think the crash is what sealed our fate. I'm sure we would have won or at least been on the podium had we not unexpectedly been left without extra batteries and charging capability as the FX is significantly faster than the rest of the bikes we were competing against. It wasn't until the second half of the race that we had all the equipment we needed to fully charge the batteries between sessions. The power and torque was turned all the way down and we just needed to keep a steady pace. We had three sets of batteries on rotation, one set in the bike and two charging.
We were racing on a kart track so it is not as fast as it is technical. I think a skilled rider who is able to carry the speed through the corners could get a half hour out of a set of batteries. The main reason we reduced the torque was because the organizer was concerned that our bike was much too fast to be racing against the rest of the bikes. Even with the torque turned down, no bike was any match on the straightaways against the FX.
Intéressant à lire. Bien organisé, l'équipe montée sur la Zero a démontré que ces motos, ayant accès à un remplacement rapide des piles, peuvent survivre une course de 24 heures. Ils devaient faire un remplacement de piles aux 30 minutes. Le classement final n'a pas grand importance car ils étaient en compétition contre des ados montés sur des motos de 50cc à 125cc sur un circuit de go-kart. Circuit qui avantage les véhicules ayant le plus de couple à bas régime.
Il est possible que l'avenir des véhicules électriques soit dans l'existence de stations de rechange/recharge rapide de piles.
Ride Safe!
