- EICMA 2023: Ultra Violette F77 & F99 4K
This is my video from the Ultra Violette stand at the EICMA 2023 show in Milan, Italy in November 2023. I wasn't familiar with the brand, but several viewers said I should go and check them out, and here they are. The first three bikes (the one without the bodywork, the amazing red one and the tourer are all the F77 platform. The race bike at the end is the F99.
Let me know what you think.
Thanks for watching!

Ultraviolette is a two wheeler ev maker based out of Bangalore India and are making electric superbikes of the future and have just started launching bikes last year in India and will be soon launching bikes in Europe from next year onwards
Yup, that's what I found out. Though they are probably making bikes of the present. Bikes of the future are a lot harder unless you're Dr. Who. Or work in marketing 😉
@@PeakMotorcyclesI own an f77 and is my daily machine. On a mix use in Indian traffic I get a total range of 220 kms. It's a fantastic machine. Smoooooth in its Glide ( eco mode) Very competitive in its combat mode ( mix or economy and performance mode ) and very BONKERS in its Ballistic mode (performance mode)
Also wanted to thank you for showing us around EICMA ❤
These would sell better in overseas than in India imo

I’ve been waiting for them to hit Europe ever since they showed the first prototypes some years ago. I absolutely love it. If the price is right and the build quality in order it’ll be hard to resist.
Yup, I think the price will be key. It’ll be great to have a bit more choice between the 125 equivalents and the £20k+ fancy bikes.
Never heard of them before, Andre, thanks for showing. Clean lines, indeed. The touring version looks like on old Aprilia Futura 1000 V2. F99 looks fast! Günter/Nürnberg
My pleasure!
@@lotf5166anyone asked you??
Ultraviolet have been in 7years of R&D before coming to the production last year. Am sure u can definitely see there tech❤.
It's easy to see with the bodywork off.
Thanks for featuring ultraviolet 😍, production ready on road first ev in India riding with the range of 300kms, Ultraviolet will be the future of Indian EV's.
Are you sure that is true?
The Zero SR ZF14. 4 + Power Tank has a range of 223 miles, which is just under 360km, and I think that was available before the Ultra Violette. Not that the UV specs aren't good, I just think it's best to avoid misinformation.
@@PeakMotorcycles didn't know about zero range, I appreciate, edited 😃.
Even still Kawasaki & Harley livewire still trying to figure out getting range of 200kms, Proud to say Indians have done it🦾.
My experience of electric motorcycles so far is that the ranges are subject to change. It might say 200km of range, but then you get a 20% climb for a mile, and do an enthusiastic overtake on the way up, and suddenly range is down to 150km. Is Ultra Violette better at this? (I'm not doubting it, just curious what, if any, different tech they have that gives them the edge.)
Never heard of them. That range of 300 km could be a game changer...so far, most bikes seem to be 100km or less, which is impossible when you live in a very rural environment and ride in the Portuguese mountains.
Based out of India, and yes, it's sort of the middle ground between the £15-20k+ Zeros and Livewires but speed, range and power above the more budget Surron and similar bikes. It'll be interesting to see the UK pricing. I'd be tempted by the red one!
Its give 250+ real world range claim by customer in india
Check the on road videos & reviews of Ultraviolet F77.
@@lipunaI am a proud customer and owner of f77 from India and I get a 250+ in economy mode. In a mix use of performance bursts where I go 40 to 100 to 40 in less than 15 seconds give me a total range of 200-220.
This is a beast.
The F77 had a very cool Iron manish swappable battery which they got rid of on the production version. Google the early designs.
Thanks. Will do.
very nice looks
They do. Very clean lines.
Beautiful bike
I hope we get to see them here. Electric motorcycle sales are down and people are losing interest a bit, perhaps this could change that.
Lets go ultraviolet
Yup. Looking forward to seeing them here and the prices.
Proud of ultraviolette Team - Indian brand for world.
Let’s hope so.
This is Bangalore based Indian brand
Thanks
Did you check out the active aerodynamics on the F99?
I’m sorry but I didn’t. Though it is tricky to do on a static bike on a stand.
Ha! Yeah, that would be tricky to do.
But i meant how parts of the faring move in and out based on how the wind's hitting the bike, sort of like how active rear spoilers on some sports cars do, to direct the air and provide better stability. They were showing it off in a few other videos i found on their social media, but i'm not sure how long they did so there.@@PeakMotorcycles
@@PeakMotorcycleswhy you always try to be smartass with your replies 😂
@@Hsp44 Wait... that was one of the smartass replies?... it's spreading! Joking aside, I think the F99 will do 165mph, so certainly plenty fast enough to take advantage of active aero on a track, when the extra downforce can improve braking and cornering grip when needed, and then reduce drag for the straights. Not sure how much difference small wings actually make on a motorcycle for drag reduction, where I'd think they would be too small to have much of an impact vs the body of the rider. On an F1 car,, which is essentially all wing, it's a differentiator, here, I'm not so sure. If it makes it into a road bike, I think it's a bit of a gimmick. Below 60mph, for the size of wing, I doubt it would make a noticable difference. Above that, assuming it's legal to use it, not sure how many people would use a road derived F99 on the limit where every 1/1000th of a second matters. Maybe that's why I struggle to get excited about it...
When you look at the model instead of the bike 😜🤫
It’s quite hard to avoid them at EICMA but I try.
Blah, enjoy your ride + sound.
Yup. There are some things that electric motorcycles cannot replace.
Depends on the use case . If you are on a scenic route , no sound is best. If its a nice road,winding , sound is good.
They look nice but honestly, I think it's a stupid name for a bike brand. They should hire a friggin marketing professional.
India is a very inward looking market with very different expectations than the rest of the world. Do you think the Royal Enfield Machismo 500 or the Hero Hunk 160R would fare well outside India? They do very well there, where it's perfectly acceptable for a gentleman to proclaim that he rides a hunk...
@@PeakMotorcycles
But this is EICMA, right? They're obviously looking at market outside India.
@@PeakMotorcycleshunk came in 2003-5 when 150cc bikes were considered large capacity but nowadays 300-400 cc bikes are very common in india and even they are not considered big bikes also bikes like hunk and mechismo were not meant for europe so names like these are good in india and other countries where these bikes were sold
Why triumph killed daytona 😢
It will be missed.
What you mean by they make can't you say india are you afraid
I’m not sure I understand your question. Please could you let me know what or when you are referring to?
They means company, ultraviolet 💀
Chup lawde haggo matt har jagah
so bad design for naked bike. the philosophy of naked bike is to see the engine parts not the plastics! the handlebar is look like race! they don't understand motorcycle like ifa moto e without any excitement 😂. electric motorcycles are bullshit
Electric motors aren't that exciting to look at though.
It's not naked bike. Its sports bike.
There's no engine behind those pannel it's just lot of wires, batteries and circuits
You may think they're bullshit, but we're all going to be riding them soon. If you don't want to ride an electric bike you'll have to walk, or get the bus, which will also be electric.
@@hiteshgujarathi4636
No.if you mean superbike(race) you know they does not have headlights like this. body is race but Headlight is in naked style
Thanks for the close-up look at the f99 🫡
The UV team's live stream for f99 launch was crap
😂 I did go to the launch, but after 5 minutes of hype (and it was very busy) I wandered off to do some more filming. I went back later when it was quieter to get the video of the bike. It does look great, but I was hoping for something more road ready as a step up from the F77 rather than a bike, which I'm sure is brilliant, but few will get to ride.
