Johammer J1

The latest entry in the electric motorcycle comes from Austrian engineer Johann Hammerschmidt. The Johammer J1 is a futuristic electric cruiser with innovative energy technology. The company claims a range of 200 miles with the larger capacity battery while a smaller battery with a reported range of 150 miles will also be offered. Both models will have a top speed of 75 mph.

The battery pack is located below the rider in the center of the motorcycle with the electric motor and controller in the rear wheel.  The extremely torsion-resistant aluminium main frame accommodates the shock absorbers and battery pack.

A DC-excited synchronous motor with single-stage transmission, both submerged in sealed oil bath require no maintenance. The electric motor offers engine brake with power recuperation.  The entire rear assembly is supported by a single-side box-section aluminum swingarm.  The twin front swingarms employ hub center steering.

The Johammer J1 has no central instrument panel with the electronic data being displayed by LED windows in the rearview mirrors.  The J1.150 will weigh 350 pounds while the J1.200 will top the scales at 390 pounds.  

The J1.150 is priced at €22.900 and the J1.200 at €24.900
