Yamaha DEINONYCHUS 2WD electric bikeThe DEINONYCHUS is interesting. Electric motors in both wheels and a flexible frame that can be adjusted both vertically and horizontally to suit rider size and riding conditions. Electric drive is very appealing for the 2WD ability the in-wheel motors afford and I would expect to see more work done in this direction. Think trials bike or offroad capability.

On display at the Tokyo Motor Show

Man, that looks like a stolen bike after its been stripped and recovered. But you are right, electric motors can be used in a wide variety of ways that gas powered engines just can’t touch.

I’ll still be sticking with Suzuki for a while longer though.

This the right the company has shooted the concept. The shortage & the fuel economy has been very high nowadays.Concepts like this will surely rule the roads one day in future. It will be an icon to the future development of the bikes. The two wheel drive mechanism is a briliant idea. The more power out put can be achived in this drvie mechanism
