			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It seems that the promise of recognition through electric motorcycle racing is bringing out an increasing number of unlikely competitors to the racing fray. Add newly-born <strong>American </strong>motorcycle manufacturer <a href="http://www.roehrmotorcycles.com/"><strong>Roehr </strong></a>to that growing list as the company has just announced its intentions to offer both</p>

<p>racing and street versions of the eRoehr electric motorcycle.</p>
<p>Roehr&#8217;s first motorcycle, the 1250sc, offers up 180 horsepower via a modified and supercharged <strong>Harley-Davidson Revolution</strong> motor. That&#8217;s plenty of power, but electric motors have a reputation for being major torque-monsters, and the AC induction unit specified for the Roehr eSuperbike is no exception. How does 96 hp and 210 pound-feet of torque sound?</p>
<p>A 10 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack will provide the power for that machine, which Roehr plans to enter in the U.S. TTXGP Series later this year. A second version with a similar motor offering 48 hp and 105 lb-ft paired with a 6kWh battery will reportedly have enough juice to hit 100 miles per hour.</p>
<p>What we don&#8217;t yet know are expected base prices, the performance expectations of the higher-spec eSuperbike or the range of either machine. In other words&#8230; stay tuned.</p>
