Super73 C1X Concept Electric Motorcycle First Look
It was only a matter of time before Irvine-based Super73 expanded into the electric motorcycle market. While we still do not know much, here is what we know that has been released and now that there is a testing video, we have a first look at the Super73 C1X Concept electric motorcycle in action.
Needless to say, the size and agility of the bike are of great interest to us.
- The seat height is designed to encourage new riders. The saddle is 31 inches above the pavement—not cruiser low, but still manageable to a broad range of potential customers. There are Super73 pedal-assist bicycles with a similar seat height.
- Super73 went to 15-inch disc wheels to keep the C1X low.
- The smallish wheels are matched by a compact 51-inch wheelbase. That is three inches longer than a Honda Grom, and four inches shorter than a Honda CB300F.
- The Super73 C1X is intended for roads and freeways. Top speed is expected to be above 75 mph, sufficient for most freeways in densely populated areas.
- The battery range in the city is projected to be 100 miles. A fast charger option will pump the battery up to an 80 percent charge in less than an hour.
If you’d like to reserve a production version of the Super73 C1X Concept bike, it will cost you $73. There’s no word on the expected price of the production model. Also, it will be a 2024 model, arriving in late 2023. Super73 promises to keep those buying a reservation updated on the progress leading to production
