The Verge TS Ultra Electric Motorcycle is Entirely Too Fast

It does 0-60 in 2.5 seconds. Hold onto your butt.

There are many different types of electric motorcycles, and their top speeds can vary greatly. Some electric motorcycles are designed to be relatively slow and suitable for use in urban areas, while others are built for high-speed performance and are capable of reaching very high speeds. If you are concerned about the speed of an electric motorcycle, it is important to consider what you will be using it for and choose a model that is suitable for your needs. You can also consider adding modifications or controls, such as a speed limiter, to help manage the speed of the motorcycle.

Howling' Wolf would have hated this motorcycle. It is not built for comfort. It is built to accelerate the human body from a standstill to freeways speeds in less time than it has taken you to read this lead.

This is the $44,900 TS Ultra, the new flagship motorcycle, from venerated electric bike maker Verge. It joins the existing entry level 4.5-second TS (MSRP $26,900) and 3.5 second, $29,000 TS Pro in Verge's lineup. The TS Ultra features a hub less rear wheel housing a 1200 nm (~885 ft-lb torque) e-motor larger than both the 1000 nm Pro and 700 nm TS which delivers 201 horsepower, a 124 MPH top speed and a range 233 miles. 

Not only does the hub less drive wheel look cool, the space and weight savings coming from that design decision allowed Verge to increase the size of its battery and reposition it to lower the bike's center of gravity. That's handy when you're on a single-seated crotch rocket attempting to extract the fillings in your teeth exclusively via acceleration force. Riders will have their choice of five color choices (in both matte and glossy alternates), three seat materials (basic leather, perforated leather and alcantara), and either a Wilbers or Ohlin’s suspension.
