Here is a link to the newest and greatest electric sport motorcycle. This one is called the Mankame EP1 "Electric Superbike". It has a claimed 480 km range (at a superbike speed of 70 Km/h) using a Samsung 18650-cell, 18.4 kWh battery pack. They sure do a good job of hiding all of those batteries. No word about pricing, though: https://electricmotorcycles.news/newsflash-mankame-ep-1-electric-superbike/

Also, it's nothing more than a render.

A total Range of 480 Kilometers on a full charge, at 70 Km/h on the highway
Who goes 43mph on the highway!?

Like most of these "concept" bikes, the specs don't really match.
18KW LIQUID COOLED battery would be approximately FIVE FX modular bricks
at a little over half the weight. Total weight half way between a 7.2 FX and 13 KW S.
Extra rotor, extra caliper must weigh nothing.
LIMITED to 4X the HP of an SR.
These guys must be smoking some good S#*T.

That was my thought too. Either that, or they are just trolling for dollars, like a lot of these big idea EV startups seem to be doing. ::)
