/Britten Electric Concept

It’s always interesting to see what designers can come up with when they set their mind to it. This electric motorcycle concept is what Kiwi designer Selwyn Shadbolt calls the “Britten V1000E” a design tribute to the original V1000.

While no specs have been released, the bike features a single large capacity electric engine and the latest rage among designers, hubless wheels.

    I don’t like it at all. Britten pretty much built his bike in his shed - I don’t think you could come out with something like that just using number 8 wire and some good old kiwi do-it-yourself attitude.

    Thanks for the comments some more constructive criticism would be nice but i guess i cant expect too much - i never even gave permision for these images or information to be published. I was forced to design it under the Britten name tag and petter i also would never compare i to the great britten otherwise. It was a very fast / loose design as can be shown by the lack of handle bars in the CAD model and something that i didnt want published on the internet for all to see as i am capible of much better work
