Hi guys that's my toy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Cool. Tell us more. How does it ride? Impressions? more more more
-
I had a Test RIde last Monday in London, through Regents Park then i went just outside London to try top speed and a part of range. Well.. it was great!! i went up to 110mph and i felt i could go faster, i didn't try the acceleration but the manufacturing assure that 0-60 is achieved in less then 3 sec. It is incredibly torque they said around 130 Nm and it comes really smooth.
When i took the Motorbike it was fully charged, i had 1 hour of ride and i've done around 70miles, when i brought it back the dashboard showed 100miles left, so i supposed the range it's around 150-170 miles.... sounds good.
In terms of riding.. i got used quickly.. no clutch no gears so i was just focused how to twist the throttle.
Impression..... I definitely want one :D
-
Wow great bike! Impressive performance, great look, and definitely good range.
What about the price? Probably over 50000$. I assume the price will be in pounds.
-
I've just checked the price and it's £19770.
The coolest thing it's that with 0.50£ you get 150miles range :)
-
You'll burn through your pack a LOT faster on the country lanes, believe me! ;)
Quick riding through country lanes on my Zero-S which has about the same size battery pack at the Saietta-R (11.4 v 11.0) gives me about 85-90 miles of "spirited" legal riding.
Saying that, the Saietta might have a more efficient powertrain, it certainly is quicker and faster than my Zero-S thats for sure. :)
Looks like a very nice bike.
-
Very impressive. But that performance and range is hard to believe from only an 11 kWh battery pack. Could it have been twice that size? If it was, the bike must have been very heavy. ???
-
Well let's say that is not light as a plume, i've been told that is 220kg motorbike.
The performances and range, as far as i rode, they seemed impressive.
The funny thing was that i've been stopped at every traffic lights:)
-
The only time you don't get stopped by a traffic light is when you have a bee in your bonnet, or an itch to scratch, or the bag of fish and chips sitting in your lap is starting to slide off, or you just discovered that your fly is open. ::)

Hahahahahahah

Saietta at Park Lane

Your Saietta looking cool! Will u pls share the side view pics of your bike with us?
-
Thank you, this is the side view of my bike.
-
Thank you, this is the side view of my bike.
Gorgeous looking black bike! Thanks for the side view pics mate!

It looks a lot more aerodynamic than the Zero - perhaps this accounts for the better range?
I had a Test RIde last Monday in London, through Regents Park then i went just outside London to try top speed and a part of range.
Did you buy the bike?
-
yes i did !!!
-
So what is your average range in town, on roads and mixed?
-
In Town i can easily go for 115-120miles, mixed around 85miles.
-
I like it - it's a wild, futuristic design that really catches attention - no one will mistake it for a Honda!
;)

Thank you oobflyer

I'm curious about these figures. According to their web site it has a 3.9s 0-60, not less than 3 - and it it quotes a 112 mile range. And while it is vague on which type of range that figure comes from, they describe it in terms of how much city commuting you can achieve with it, which implies that this is the standard city range. Highway range at 70MPH constant would be much less (less than 60 miles @70MPH for a Zero with equivalent city range). According to your memory of the test ride you did 70 miles in 1 hour which is an average of 70MPH. An equivalent zero that can barely do that 70miles @70MPH would be the 12.5 model which has 151 miles in the city (even with an added power tank it only gets to 94 miles @70MPH).
On the other hand, the Saietta looks like it is much more aerodynamic than the other models, but you'd think their actual range claims would be much higher if the aerodynamics gave that much of a boost.

It would be great to hear from Alespeed again on how he's getting on with his bike. Are you out there mate?
Apart from this topic and the news about the new model, Saietta have passed me by somewhat.
