WMC and Zero reveal “Intelligent Aero” motorcycle technology concept

At Motorcycle Live in the UK later this week, the partners will show the world’s first electric sports motorcycle concept, based on Zero Motorcycles’ SR/S, to incorporate White Motorcycle Concepts’ patented duct in an existing platform, demonstrating exciting new possibilities in aerodynamics to improve range. **White Motorcycle Concepts (WMC), the Northampton, UK-based company behind the British electric motorcycle land-speed world-record program, has collaborated with [Zero Motorcycles](https://zeromotorcycles.com/)** to prototype the world’s first electric sports bike to incorporate WMC’s patented intelligent aerodynamic duct. The resulting concept called WMCSRS — the acronym combining WMC and SR/S from the Zero model — presents the patented duct producing a 10% reduction in aerodynamic drag within a mid-sized sports bike. “The whole industry is currently facing a huge technical/commercial challenge to produce an electric motorcycle with performance close to its petrol equivalent,” said Robert White, Founder & CEO of White Motorcycle Concepts. “This problem space will not be solved by battery technology alone; it requires a blend of innovations to bridge the gap now and provide efficiency benefits in the future.” The WMCSRS development is the most important data point for WMC’s aerodynamic duct technology so far.
