The Environmental Impact Of Superbikes And How To Ride Responsibly – A Canadian startup is pushing some pretty wild new technology into the world of motorcycles. Examples include variable riding position geometry and a traffic-tracking collision warning system designed to give riders an extra margin of safety on the road.
There’s a lot going on here, so let’s start with the essentials. Damon is a new motorcycle technology company based in Vancouver, Canada. The company is working on a number of projects, which are expected to eventually be integrated into new electric bike models like the one pictured above. The company has successfully raised approximately CAD 2.5 million (US$ 1.9 million) in seed funding and will “demonize” other manufacturers’ bikes by becoming a supplier of next-generation bike safety technology that can be implemented in factories. He says he plans to do so.
