Have you been thinking of twisting the throttle on a zero-emission torquey speed machine? Salt Creek Motorcycles is making it happen with some exciting models of electric motorcycles for Adults and Kids.
While we have been gradually offering our sole importers other motorcycle brands as space and growth permits – Benelli, Peugeot, Rieju, and Segway Powersports, it will be a very exciting year ahead if you are or are becoming a lover of electric motorcycles.
Electric motorcycles like hybrid and fully electric cars are on the rise ticking many boxes such as reduced or zero emissions, no engine noise, slashed running and registration costs, decent range before requiring a charge, and exceptionally high torque performance.
So check out the two electric motorcycle models available now at Salt Creek Motorcycles:
Super SOCO
Super SOCO specialises in high-quality electric motorcycles and scooters. With zero emissions, fumes and noise, combined with super low charging costs for a cleaner greener future, and low registration costs, they are the perfect solution for coastal commuting and early morning quiet surf checks.
The range includes reimagined Café Racers that are great daily commuters with speed ranges between 70km-100km delivered by a 3900W Bosch Engine, with up to 110Km Range* (*depending on how you ride – riding gradients and style). The TC Max and TC Cafe have become the biggest sellers globally and are fantastic run-arounds.
Starting at sub $8K on the road and with 2 Years / 10,000Km Warranty, and LAMS approved, it may be time to proudly add one to your garage.
Check out the cracking TC Max models we currently have on the floor – Electric Yellow pictured here.
Or pop in to explore other models in the showroom, available to order, or in the pipeline.
TORROT
We now have the new generation of moto action on the floor – Kids Electric MX and Trials bikes!
Torrot is the outcome of a small yet great Spanish visionary’s passion for motorcycles dating back to 1948. Fast forward and Torrot has utilised its design know-how to create kid’s electric MX and Trials bikes – designed, engineered, and manufactured in Spain.
The Torrot kid’s electric motorcycles are packed with ‘proper’ motocross attributes, such as tubular chrome-molybdenum frame, frame-protected engine, EBR hydraulic front forks, rear oil shock absorber, hydraulic brakes, and Michelin motocross and trials tyres.
Also, the “no hot exhaust” combined with no fumes, and variable power output from 600W up to 1500W makes it an ideal formula to get off-road to suit the littlies riding level. Another great feature is that parents can fully control the engine via an android or IOS app.
There are two models of motocross bikes: the MX One and MX Two with a height difference of around 50mm. There is also the technical Trials version which could be perfect if you have a smaller backyard.
So, if you have been browsing market place for a PeeWee 50 or 80 for your kid’s first MX bike, you should stop right now and drop by Salt Creek Motorcycles to see these kids’ electric motorbikes in the showroom.
Lastly, we have good news for the neighbours and wildlife. Due to its battery-powered engine, Torrot’s electric motorcycles are silent. Which helps the rider and spectator to tune in with nature while riding and exploring.
We left the best for last. The price is not too much more than what a new TTR-110 or second hand PeeWee 80 is, starting from $4,890, however, running costs and maintenance are much lower than a traditional bike.
SEGWAY Powersports
And on the subject of hybrid electric engines, the Segway Powersports range of All Terrain vehicles, Utility Side by Side and Sports Side by Side models will soon have a hybrid option – approx early 2023.
With thrilling power outputs of up to 250 Nm of torque and 181 horsepower, up to 2.5T winch, the Segway Powersports range is also equipped with the latest in technology and safety features, meeting and exceeding the current government standards for all-terrain vehicles. This includes mobile phone integration, SOS alerts, remote controlling, drive settings, real-time data and a smart EPS system that is designed with standard/comfort/sport modes that adjust automatically according to traction conditions.
If you are Primary Industries, Sustainable Farming, or just a recreational customer you can view a sample of the Segway range in our showroom now, or next month at PRIMEX Field Days in Casino 10-12 November 2022. Just head to the Salt Creek Motorcycles stand.
