Emflux Teases Naked Electric Streetfighter

Emflux, the Bengaluru-based tech start-up that shocked the country by unveiling India’s first-ever electric superbike, the One, at the 2018 Auto Expo has now teased its next project - a naked electric streetfighter.

The electric streetfighter, aptly named the Emflux Two, is still in its design stages and is expected to be launched only after the company rolls out the Emflux One sometime next year. Based on the sketch teased by the company, it’s quite evident that the electric street naked will feature a steeply raked headlamp unit as well as handlebars that are more upright. The rest of the bike seems to be the same as the Emflux One.

It is likely to be equipped with the One’s 60kW liquid-cooled AC induction motor. This unit churns out 81.5PS of power and 84Nm of torque. According to the company, the Emflux One can sprint from zero to 100kmph in just 3 seconds and can achieve a top speed of 200kmph. While these figures are impressive, we expect the Emflux Two to be slightly detuned to match its streetfighter character.

Powering the Emflux One is a Samsung-made lithium-ion battery that can be charged up to 80 per cent in just half an hour. The company claims a range of 200km on a single charge in city riding conditions.

The Emflux One also comes with premium features like a 6.8-inch TFT instrument screen, all-LED lighting, GPS navigation, Bluetooth connectivity and real-time vehicle diagnostics.

The motorcycle is built around a tubular steel trellis frame and gets 43mm USD forks (upgradable to Ohlins Race and Track USD forks) at the front and a gas-charged monoshock (upgradable to Ohlins 46mm Monotube Gas shock) at the rear. Braking duties are handled by Brembo 300mm dual-discs at the front and a single 220mm disc at the rear. It also gets dual-channel ABS as standard.

We'll be bringing you more details about the Emflux Two soon. Until then, stay tuned!

Breaking Down BS6 Carburettors And Fuel Injection Explained

  It’s now been nearly 4 months since BS6 emission norms came into effect, and almost all the bikes and scooters sold in India have been updated to meet the stricter regulations. Most recent among these to receive the updates was the TVS Scooty Zest BS6 , which was launched a couple of days ago at Rs 58,640. Like all the BS6 updates we’ve seen so far, this new version is more expensive than its BS4 predecessor, by around Rs 6,000 in this case. And the biggest reason behind these price hikes is the addition of a fuel-injection system. So what exactly is it? And how did bikes work before fuel-injection came into the picture? Let’s take a look: To understand why a fuel-injection (FI) system is needed, we first need to understand its predecessor: the carburettor. Both FI and carburettors do the same job: mixing air and fuel in the correct proportions before it’s sent into the engine. The diagram above shows a carburettor’s layout. Air enters at the top, flows through a narrow con...

TVS Tyres Launches Two New Range Of Tyres For Scooters

The two new range of tyres are called - Jumbo-XT and the Pancer-II. Exclusively made for scooters. The company claims that both provide excellent grip in both dry and wet conditions. TVS Tyres has launched two new range of tyres for scooters - Jumbo-XT and the Pancer-II. Both will be available in 90/100 -10 sizes across the country. While the Jumbo-XT is priced at Rs 951, the Pancer-II costs Rs 987. The company claims the Jumbo-XT's bold and rugged block type pattern helps it in providing excellent grip on both wet and dry surfaces. Its parallel groove design helps in draining water efficiently. The Pancer-II, on the other hand, features an aligned block type design with groove channels. This helps it in providing improved stability, while also providing good grip in wet and dry conditions. TVS tyres also claims that the Pacner-II helps in improving the overall mileage as well. We'll certainly put these claims to the test once the review units arrive.   Speaking on th...

BMW Motorrad Showcases Radical Electric Vision DC Roadster

The Vision DC Roadster takes the brands iconic 2-cylinder boxer engine design and gives it a rather interesting twist.  The design was inspired by the BMW R 32 developed by Max Friz in 1923. BMW has also designed a two-piece functional suit that looks like a casual jacket and black trousers. BMW Motorrad is no newcomer to electric vehicles. We’ve already seen the brands Vision Next 100 concept which gave a glimpse of the company’s future vision. Now though, BMW intends to change our outlook on electric two-wheelers which are more often than not perceived as boring. And they plan on doing so with the Vision DC Roadster, an all-electric bike that gives the word unconventional a whole new meaning. The design team started off by taking its iconic 2-cylinder boxer engine and giving it a rather interesting twist. The idea was to retain its protruding design but incorporate it in an electric motor. The challenge was its packaging. You see, in an IC engine, the size of the motor ...
