Blackswan to build 1000bhp electric drag bike
By Gary Pinchin -
Team Blackswan are based in Bristol and are developing several electric motorcycle projects including the building of a 1000bhp lithium electric drag bike.

This is being used as a rolling test-bed to develop the powerplant for the boat and car & to take on the Americans Kilacycle which in Scotty Pollacheck’s hands has run a 7.89s @ 168mph standing quarter-mile.

Blackswan are aiming to run in the sixes!
Team Blackswan’s manager Andrew Taylor said: “Our drag-bike is aptly named the TeraCycle & can be seen running Shakespeare county & the Pod.”

Aprat from the drag bike, Blackswan are also developing a cruiser road bike and a road racing machine.

Taylor added: “One of the long term goals of the project is to design an electric motorcycle ‘fit for purpose’ and suitable for mass production by a British company like Triumph.

The Ve King will use a unique V-configuration electric motor for that classic look and feel. “We are also building an electric race bike to enter into the Isle of Man TT. Like a number of others teams we were unable to get hold of a qualified rider at such short notice.

“We have some pretty smart cookies onboard already, but we are looking to recruit more team members with experience in designing, building & racing motorcycles.”

Ve King Concept

Team Blackswan are building a prototype " urban cruiser" which will be powered by an electric V motor - this is a unique concept which combines the style and character of a traditional cruiser with the latest in electric motor design.

The Ve King will resemble a typical cruiser & will use a V twin coil electric motor

Style and comfort rather than light weight and high performance is the design philosophy of the road cruiser - and the Latest EV technology can meet these requirements.

The On the road price for the Ve King will be around £ 10,000

Markets

* Luxury urban commuter

* Summer Weekend Biker

* Second vehicle for petrol heads looking for something a little special

The two wheeled equivalent of the Tesla Roadster
