Haven't seen one mentioned anywhere yet... They're expecting only to produce 300 in 2010, with the first 50 already spoken for in custom orders; so I'd imagine if theres a high demand, the price will be up there.

I was watching the Isle of Man TT last night, not sure if it was old or not, but they showed them racing the electric bikes on their, max speed was something like 80-ish. They're pretty amazing, but are far too quiet.

I wonder if the MotoCzysz E1pc bike will ever get off the ground? I was rooting for them when they decided to design a motogp bike, but I don't think it ever made it.
