Looks like they have built the fairings and are
getting ready for the batteries and motor.
Good grief that's ugly. Someone should stop reading Judge Dread comics. When
that was born they should have slapped the mother's backside.
This simply doesn't look like a professional outfit you should be happy
paying large sums of money to. They should either keep quiet, or present it
as a personal project until a decent working POC (proof of concept) vehicle
is running. Then they could move to a prototype (literally 'first of a
type') on which a production machine could be based.
The battery box is either too low, too wide, or both. They're going to run
into serious cornering clearance problems.
The aerodymanics are very questionable. In fact it looks positivley lethal
in a side wind. The centre of pressure is going to be too far forward and
it's likely to be unstable in a straight line, even without a side wind.
Perhaps someone shoud take pity on them and send them a copy of Tony Foale's
book (www.tonyfoale.com) which is pretty much the only serious book on
motorcycle design.
