How to design an electric motorcycle by one of the designers from Damon Motorcycles

I have presented many design styles and architectures of electric bicycles that are merging with electric motorcycles, but i thought that it would be a good time to dive into the actual design process and see not only what companies are doing, but how they are designing their bikes.


In this video there is a discussion on the architecture of the Damon brand and how they approach the design process :

The key focus (similar to a ICE) is that the design is based around the powerplant and built outward. In the case of electric bikes, it would be the battery pack and possibly the motor, if its not hub based.


I think that you will find it interesting as i did, even if it is not what you would design.
