Four-time trial world champion Adam Raga wanted to make some noise to celebrate International Noise Awareness Day, so he swapped his roaring trial bike for an electric bike -- and rode off to the beautiful Valley of Silence in El Bierzo in northern Spain. Why? Because Adam believes living in peace with nature is something to shout about. He really believes that this is the path that technology must follow; to always try and coexist with the environment.

Brammo Empulse
Call us oldfashioned... but a motorcycle without exhaust gas, oil stains and a whole lotta noise isn't a motorcycle at all. It's a battery on wheels.
The environment they say... Hmm, We think of other things to help the environment, less people for instance.
That would really solve the traffic jams... and the environment problems.
However, we do follow the electric cyclemanufacturers like BRAMMO.
Btw: do you all this a "motor"cycle? Or rather an Electrocycle?
The Empulse is an environment friendly & cool looking alternative.
The technology always gets better and faster...
Will these pioneers become the BMW's and Honda's of the next century?
Makes you wonder what the future brings?

2010 Comoto - electric motorbike concept
The 2010 Comoto was conceived and engineered by Jeff Hirsch of Hirsch Design. The Comoto was meticulously designed, and, entirely hand built from the ground up, using only high strength 6061-T6 alloy aircraft aluminum sheet metal in its unique monocoque frame design. No welding is used, except or a few cross members and head tube, therefore there is very little welding to lose the structural integrity of the T6 temper. Only world class high end electronics and high intensity components were chosen for the Comoto's overall strength, weight savings, handling and aesthetic look.
The Comoto is a 100% all electric, all aluminum alloy, lightweight motorcycle. Specifcally well suited for police patrol, airports, emergency response, campus and mall security, commuting, trail riding, and other recreational uses.
