The Canadian electric bike manufacturer that brought us the Hypersport electric superbike have just unveiled their latest weapon. It?s the Damon HyperFighter. It?s got 197bhp, 199Nm of torque, does 0-60 in three seconds, and will do 170mph flat-out. And it looks pretty saucy, too.

The new Damon HyperFighter comes in three different versions; the most basic is the Unlimited 15, then there?s the Unlimited 20, and the trickest one is called the Colossus. If you think that sounds like a rather an odd name for a sports motorcycle, you won?t be the only one.

You could say the Unlimited 15 has rather a bizarre name too, since it is in fact limited to 148bhp.

It has a smaller battery though, so you?ll only get 120 miles out of a full charge; again, that?s according to Damon.
The Unlimited 20 and the Colossus are the ?bigger,? faster models. The larger battery versions are said to be able to do 146 miles on a full charge, and you can charge them back up to 80% in just 45 minutes, if you?ve got one of the fast chargers.
