mavizen-ttx02

Can you guess what motorcycle it is? It is Mavizen TTX02. The TTX02 is based on the KTM RC8 with a Agni powerplant. The twist is that they call it a “laptop on wheels” because of all the electronics it packs on top of what is strictly required to control the electric motor (dash-mounted computer that runs Linux, has wifi connectivity and a web-server, etc).

All this hardware and software might seem overkill for a racing bike, especially since it no doubt adds a bit of weight, but it probably compensates for that by giving the teams who will buy one more information about their performance and more ways to customize the ride. If the bike is able to tell you in great details how you’re doing, it’s probably easier to make adjustments (both to the bike itself and to the way it is driven) to shave off precious seconds from your laps.
