Do they have hybrid electric motorcycles?

Answer
About the only thing available at the moment is this all electric bike
http://www.vectrix.com/
It has been on sale for a couple of years, it looks like they are also about to launch a smaller cheaper bike Yamaha and Honda have been talking about this for years and Yamaha have released some things but only in japan

the bottom one (now called the pocke) has been around for several years again only electric.
But the Honda in Dana's link is the most likely to get to market as they have the backing to support such a vehicle while many of the vehicles that have appeared in things like gizmag over the last 5-6 years never see the light of day.

ELECTRIC BIKE QUESTION!!! ?




mike


Ok so I wanna convert my bike to a electric bike..I want to be able to travel like 30 or so miles on it at about 25mph is this possible under 300-350 dollars? I would even consider a used one on eBay
Oh ya and my bike just a regular comfort bike with 26 inch tires
Would it be better to buy one or use a electric bike conversion kit? Thanks!



Answer
I would take that $350 & look into a lighter hybrid or performance hybrid bicycle. Bikes with electric motors, either home built or store bought, always seem to drain the charge quickly and in the wrong place. Then what? You are stuck pedaling that behemoth home on leg power. The lighter the bicycle, the easier it usually is to pedal. Especially with the 700C tires found on hybrids & performance hybrids. They're taller & thinner than those found on your comfort bike.
