Chip Yates plans speed record for final electric motorcycle act
As the final act in what’s sure to go down in history as one of the most significant careers in electric motorcycling, Chip Yates plans to set a new land speed record. So far this year, the defense contractor emerged from motorcycling obscurity to achieve performance parity with ICE in WERA racing, outpace liter bikes at the Mojave Mile and successfully race up Pikes Peak. An attempt at the offi...

What’s faster? 2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R vs BMW S1000RR
Make no mistake, the 2011 Kawasaki ZX-10R has one goal and one goal only: to dethrone the BMW S1000RR from its liter bike throne. As far as evaluations of its ability to do so go, top speed is utterly irrelevant to real world riding, yet makes a compelling number anyways.

The impressive thing about the unofficial 190.6mph land speed record that Chip Yates set at the Mojave Mile two weeks ago wasn’t necessarily that outright speed — he was aiming for 200+, but faced charging and crosswind problems — but rather that he reached it in a one-mile drag race, not on the open expanse of a dry lake bed where courses can reach 10 miles in length. To put that speed in p...

The fastest electric motorcycle in the world
For the second time this year, Chip Yates has made history. In January, he placed second in a race against ICE superbikes using his homemade electric superbike and yesterday he unofficially set a new land speed record by a comfortable margin. Racing at the Mojave Mile, the garage inventor reached a top speed of 190.6mph. This is made extra impressive not only because he exceed the official electri...

Zero XU gets removable battery
As urban transportation, all current electric motorcycles share the same achilles heel — if you don’t have a garage with a plug, it’s difficult to charge them. No longer. The Zero XU’s 2kWh battery pack slides out of its frame and can be brought inside for easy charging in just two hours. Genius. Update: cost, weight and other details on the removable battery pack. The rest of the XU...
