Aero E-Racer Street Tracker
The E-Racer from Aero Motorcycles is a truly
beautiful two-wheeled machine, and it runs on electrons, not hydrocarbons.
Coming to US in a street tracker format, rolling on a pair of 19″ wheels, the
Aero E-Racer mates a smartly designed and executed chassis to some of the best
components in the industry.
Aero quotes 34 hp on tap, which isn’t mind-blowing,
but certainly adequate when you consider the 44 lbs-ft of flat torque.
Augmenting that torque curve is a five-speed gearbox, with a hydraulic clutch.
The carbon/kevlar bodywork helps hide the boxy shape
of the bike’s 10.6 kWh battery pack quite nicely, leaving our eye to admire the
tubular chrome moly steel frame and fine leather seat.
The iPhone dash is perhaps a place where the folks
at Aero have fallen for a trap commonly found by many electric motorcycle
concepts (complete with a mounted GoPro Session 4), though our bigger complaint
is with the added gearbox, which only dilutes the pure power experience
electrics can provide.
