the 93 mile range sounds ok but is this the range when using the available power?Looks good.

If this is the street legal version of the eCRP 1.4 its battery capacity is 7,4 kW/h. Usable on the road should be 6 kW/h. At full throttle this would mean 3 and a half minutes of electric fun - or a 8 mile range (in flat areas).

I can see that there will be a lot of accidents with these as presumably it is very quiet. This means that jaywalkers won\'t hear it coming. Perhaps some kind of loudspeaker to make it sound like a piston engined motorbike would be a great safety feature. (in the USA jaywalkers would probably sue!) Lovely bike and presumably the electric drive can be tweaked to extend tyre life.

I want one!!! But... As a past Ducati owner, isn\'t there something a little bit worrying about an electric bike from Italy? Not exactly renowned for reliable electrics!!

Wow. They really went out of their way to NOT show the left side. Seeing it\'s a chain, I bet it\'s direct drive off the motor. If that\'s the case, any savvy auto editor should question its acceleration performance. Not citing it, stating a high top speed, and hiding the drive side in their PR photos infers only one thing.....DOG. Maybe I am wrong, but too many coincidences here.

I\'ll take the new 2012 Kawaski ZX-14R that is a real superbike for much less money that I could ride to Daytona Bike Week and back from NJ like I did with my ZX-11.

\"The package includes such niceties as ride-by-wire throttle\"... is there any other way with and electric vehicle?

Italian and electrics!! Although this looks the business, no doubt has the figures and the range to draw both the eye and the wallet (providing no doubt affluence). Previous Italian bike owner, and bike fanatic I love this idea, there is one thing that makes me question my sanity. Rain + electrics + Italy = Hmmm, can I really handle the hassle. I hope this proves me wrong - it looks damn sexy too for a little throw about machine

@ Davey 1000
You are confusing \"safety\" and \"Darwinism\". Parents are supposed to teach their children not to play in the street. Teach them like their lives depend on it.
