eCycle, a maker of hybrid motors, announced yesterday that it reorganized its development of a new hybrid-powered motorcycle. According to its press release:
The new platform, which is a series hybrid, features a single-cylinder, 4-stroke gasoline engine to achieve improved highway performance, without sacrificing fuel economy. Suspension improvements include a radical single-sided swing arm for the front end that�s matched perfectly to the aluminum monocoque frame. Other notable attributes consist of a lower, more relaxed seating position, making the platform ideal for entry level riders and commuters. The rear wheel continues to be driven by a Gates Polychain, manufactured by The Gates Rubber Company.A prototype of the hybrid motorcycle is expected this Fall.
