No need to lube up this engine. Despite its retro cruiser appearance, this motorcycle from the Netherlands’ Orphiro start-up housed an array of high-tech lithium ion batteries with a total of 72 volts. Yes, this “hog” runs on clean, quiet electricity instead. But discount it as another hipster’s toy thingamajig, this baby has a top speed of 75 mph, quite respectable for a electric motorcycle. The ability to cover 60 miles with a single charge, this fun ride is sure to make stressful commute a thing of the past. The Orphiro Electric Motorcycle is slated for launch this September. via: inhabitat
