"The inventor of the “KillaCycle” electric motorcycle almost killed himself during a demonstration at the Wired NextFest conference. Bill Dube, a government scientist during the day and electric bike builder at night, did a “burn out” in front of the Los Angeles Convention Center, but accidentally accelerated too much and crashed into a Minivan."

(Bear in mind that it's using A123 Systems lithium-ion batteries. The KillaCycle can go zero to 60 miles-per-hour in a mind numbing .97 seconds.)

(funny part is about 3 minutes in)



This is hilarious. Look at the guy on the right after the rider crashes. It takes him a minute to realize that he should probably go see if he's OK. LOL
