EBR Black Lightning
EBR Racing
has unveiled the Black Lightning, at the Long Beach International Motorcycle
Show in California. This is the first bike from the company this year and it
was teased earlier saying, “Something quick, dark and low.”
The high-performance bike appears with a very
aggressive and menacing look. It has been derived from 2015 EBR 1190SX and
shares the same platform, but the very sculpted looking Black Lightning is
equipped with improved rider ergonomics and handling as well.
EBR claims that this bike has been designed to suit
all rider styles. The handlebars are positioned higher, while the lower seat
height make street riding easier. The sharp headlamp, front
fairing, fully digital instrument cluster, muscular fuel tank, stepped up split
seats, narrow tail section, alloy wheels wrapped in meaty tyres give the EBR
Black Lightning a very appealing and masculine look.
Power source for EBR Black Lightning is the 1190 cc
V-Twin engine, which has been built in-house by the company. The US-based
company claims that, the liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine is capable to churn
out 185 hp of peak power at 10,600 rpm and 137.8 Nm of peak torque at 8.200
rpm. It comes with smoother response, improved acceleration and torque
delivery, thanks to revised gearing.
Pricing for the EBR Black Lightning is US$ 13,995.
