the bike used 2 lynch motors

designed by British designer Cedric Lynch
the motors were upgraded and extra batteries were hastily mounted on top of the tank.

wont win any beauty contests but it did win the electric TT race with an average speed of 89mph

Lynch motors have been used in a record breaking speed boat and the UK hold the world speed record on water at 69 mph (which is quite low..so we are designing a boat to crack the ton)

The Lynch motors are of brushed type and although they are crude they are quite effective.
