Einfach … geil :-)))

Unser lieber SCHORSCH – was der nicht alles erzaehlt wenn der Tag lang ist.

Abgestaubt aus Wikipedia:

MotoCzysz is a Portland, Oregon, based motorcycle company that intends to compete in the MotoGP.[1] The C1 prototype has an engine with perfect balance and does not need a balance shaft. Some of the patented innovations include a slipper clutch with twin clutches, a unique front suspension, and many others.

The C1
Frame
The C1 features a carbon fiber frame that exhibits more stiffness than most other motorcycles.[2] The frame also serves as the bike's airbox.

Engine
The 990cc four cylinder engine is mounted to the frame longitudinally, rather than transversely as on most similarly configured motorcycles. A transverse arrangement fights a bike's gyroscopic tendency to stand up when leaned over and applying throttle. The C1, on the other hand, in order to negate the resulting gyroscopic forces of the longitudinal orientation, has its lengthwise-mounted inline 4 engine cut in half, with the resulting crankshaft halves counter-rotating. Thus, the bike handles with no noticeable gyroscopic force from the engine.[3]
Two of the bike's four throttle bodies are controlled mechanically, while the other two are controlled electronically by the ECU, hypothetically smoothing power delivery. The ECU-controlled throttle bodies can be adjusted by computer for refinement of the throttle curve.
Unfortunately for the company, the FIM and Dorna reduced the engine capacity for a MotoGP bike to 0.8 l (800 CCs) for the 2007 season, rendering the C1's configuration invalid for competition in that class. Michael Czysz commented in a blog post[4] that they are looking towards racing the bike in either AMA or WSB competition.

Production
According to the company website, the C1 is being readied for production.[5] Initial production is set at 50 MotoGP replica bikes offered for $100,000.[6]

Awards
The C1 was recognized with the Robb Report's 2007 Achievement in Design Award.[7]

Nachtrag von Charly an meinen Schpezl den 3-Rad-Schorsch: Der Discovery Channel hat das Ding auch verfilmt.
BIRTH OF A RACER.

A guats Naechtle noch – gell :-)))

Worueber unser SCHORSCH gelaestert hat war diese Sache hier - die "elektrische E1pc".

Obige C1 st leider ebenfalls den Bach runter ...... Sachen gibts ...

Finally, speculation on the appearance of the Motoczysz E1pc can end as the fledgling American motorcycle maker has released an official set of pictures of the machine that will be taking on the rest of the field at the upcoming TTXGP zero-emission eGrandPrix motorcycle race at the Isle of Man. Things are shaping up largely as we would have expected, with the E1pc sharing its basic layout and look – including the innovative front suspension design – with Michael Czysz's earlier race bike, the C1, which never actually made it to a MotoGP race.

Such a fate appears highly unlikely for the E1pc, and Czysz is understandably excited to see one of his two-wheelers hit the track in actual competition. In a post on the Motoczysz official blog, Czysz says, "In less than 24 hours I leave to go to the biggest race of my life, not because it is the largest, not because it is the fastest but because it will be the first time a MotoCzysz motorcycle will compete in an FIM sanctioned event."

As far as we're concerned, he has a right to be proud of his team's accomplishment. Looking over the pictures of the E1pc, we can see that there are three motors (one spins backwards) and 10 battery modules that appear to be swappable in relatively easy fashion. Perhaps the geekiest bit (in a good way, of course) is the iPhone directly in front of the rider acting as the electric bike's dash. Check out the photo gallery below for more, and be sure to click past the break for a short video of the bike in action.

ALTER SACK???????

Nur weil Du 4 Monate juenger bist :-)))

Hast Du Dir diese Filme auch schon rein gezogen?

Doch ein GENIESTREICH – oder was meint Ihr ……

SCHORSCH - ich schwaetz ja nicht ueber die "elektrische E1pc" (die uebrigens so ueberfluessig ist/war wie ein Kropf) - sondern ueber die ORIGINAL C1 - siehe ganz oben.

Ich halte das Mopped (C1) fuer einen Genie Streich. GENIAL!!!!!

Gebaut war das Teil fuer die Teilnahme am GP Zirkus.

Dann aber kam die "boese FIM" (und Honda) und reduzierte den max Hubraum auf die gegenwaertigen 800cc.

Alles andere regelt mein Anwalt - siehe angehaengtes
