Eco-Friendly and Green: Electric Motorcycle Concept


Designed by pioneering students at Saint Thomas Academy with the help of a $10,000 InvenTeams grant from the Lemelson-MIT program (among other donations), this enclosed motorcycle features a battery-driven Briggs and Stratton ETEK electric motor. Currently, the bike can run for about for 40 miles and reach 60 miles-per-hour. There's even a GPS unit to keep the rider headed in the right direction.
