  1. Triumph's prototype, the TE-1.  174hp.  The battery has been developed by Williams Advanced Engineering, the electric vehicle branch of the Williams F1 team, and the engine by Integral Powertrain, a company formed by 4 Cosworth employees.  Certainly has the credentials, and the looks.  Similar to the latest Speed Triples, which isn't a bad thing in my book.

    Engine and battery:

    I don't really care how the bike is powered, I just want it to:

    Accelerate quickly.

    Go fast.

    Go far on a single tank / charge.

    Top up the tank / battery or swap out the battery for a fully charged one, in less than 10 minutes.

     

    Let the diehards whine all they like.  For most of them, the HD riders at least, it's probably the fear of sub 3 sec acceleration and plus 90mph speeds that is the cause of it anyway.
