      MotoGP is a declining sport with BSB now having more viewers.when Rossi’s decline happened MotoGP died.and you all no this so does Dorna .as for moto e? It’s embarrassing for the racing world.kid yourselves as it won’t last.there’s a reason the internal combustion engine has survived so long…

    Electric motorcycles are still in their infancy but there is so much potential in them. (see what I did there?)
    I got a chance to take a quick ride on a prototype Zero SR/F electric bike and almost fell off the back when I whacked it open. 140 pound feet of torque is a lot for any bike, from a standstill it is mind bending. Acceleration through about 80mph is fantastic but it could really use another gear after that. All that torque would be unridable on the street w/o traction control. The MotoE bikes have even more torque an no TC so I give full respect to those willing to flog one around a course at race speed.
    Whether you want one or not it is well worth riding one of the full power Zero or Energica e-bikes just to see what it's about. They are all heavy and all insanely overpowered. It's a different experience
    EDIT: Forgot to mention that when I got back from that test ride I pulled out my wallet and immediately ordered one. Has been fun and trouble free.

  • @Maverickib
    @Maverickib Před 3 lety +2

    I think a lot of the lack of excitement comes from no competition, not their electric nature. Energica is the only manufacturer in the series, which means no manufacturer drama. Once there's other factory teams competing, there will be more of that racing drama we all love.

    • @saltyprocrastinator
      @saltyprocrastinator Před 3 lety

      That's partially true. A lot of sports out there have homologated their engines, and cars, with only two or even one manufacturer. The competition arises from the rider/driver and team skills then generate the competition, as they all arise from an even playing field, which generates the excitement.

    He only talked about the good things, okay that's fine. We should focus more on the charging & battery innovation more. 7 minutes charging for going 1 lap (around 4 kilometres)? That's still really bad. Not to mention the weight of the bike, it's heavier than a 1000 cc bike. So, there 2 big problems of moto e: charging time + weight.

How do the bikes get to the track? Diesel trucks and lots of them that travel a very long way to get there. Right. got it.

    I would like to point out that you compare a high efficiency electric drivetrain to a shitty gasoline engine. older gasoline cars indeed have around 25% efficiency. But modern cars are have 35-40% efficiency and f1 engines have more than 50% efficiency. So high tech gasoline drivetrains have 50% efficiency and high tech electric 85%.
