The electric motorcycle is growing in popularity and the performance potential of the electric dirt bikes are seeming to be rather impressive, what do you think about these near silent competitive minded dirt bikes?? Below is a section where you can voice your thoughts on these and comments are encouraged regarding your ideas about the use and future of the electric motorcycle in motocross and off-road disciplines such as GNCC racing, enduro's, hare scrambles or general trail riding, as well as your ideas on seeing them going off the lip of FMX ramp or dirt hit.

With announcement of the KTM Electric Dirt Bike, it seems that the expansion of a battery powered dirt bike is commanding attention so we decided to setup a resource to allow our readers to voice their opinions, or known facts about these and We certainly welcome and encourage your comments below.
The electric motocross bikes created by the top manufacturers such as ZERO and KTM are being developed to emerge as a durable and competitive machine capable of standing up to the abuse that a motocross track or off-road course can dish out and it's likely not going to be long before you see more and more electric motorcycles turning up at a motocross track or riding spot which you may frequent and when we hit that point, it's certainly not going to be long before you're pulling a tear-off to see what just flew past you, seeing that some of these barely tip the scales over 150lbs and turn out 30HP, and get this... ZERO is claiming their electric dirt bike can last for 2 hours on a single charge.
