Dear Ken, Its still very much affordable as compared to 11-12L R1's and illegal 600cc bikes.
For a budget of 3 - 4L in current time one can build a bike could any day beat 600cc+ bikes
And I see the costs coming down drastically in next 2 years with new innovations in batteries.
Probably by 2012 we could be able to build electric bike as powerfull as R1, with higher efficiencies thereby beating the R1.

And I am sure you would surely love the pickup of electric R1

Team AGNI is based in Kutch, Gujrat Link:
Agnimotors.com - Manufacturers of high efficiency D.C. motors - Projects

Another team from India, TORK also finished at the podium in the open class.
TORK consists of four students all in their final year of Mechanical Engineering at D.Y Patil College of Engineering, Akurdi and representing Pune University. Kapil Shelke, Ketan Mhasawade, Krunal Nanavati and Pankaj Gosavi who have been working on their project for the past two years.

We are all petrol heads by nature and that got the team together. The team started with an idea to make a sports motorcycle that can match and compete with a petrol driven motorcycle and still make no compromises in the handling, range and speed.
As mechanical engineers it took us a complete year to understand the basics of EV and to implement it to a motorcycle frame and dynamics. But even with limited resources, knowledge and experience the team constructed a first prototype.
The team is entering TTXGP to compete and stand along with the bike and team whom we sought inspiration from. We as a team want to change the perception about Electric Motorcycles in India.
