Motoczysz has built quite the superbike. Full carbon fiber frame. Zero to 120 mph in “seven or eight seconds.” Ten lithium-ion battery packs powering three electric motors. Topping it off, for fanboys everywhere, is the iPhone dashboard.

Unfortunately, no information regarding just how the iPhone is integrated has been released. One can assume, or hope rather that things like GPS and accelerometer will be taken advantage of.

As for the rest of the bike, it’s quite the piece of technological goodness. Acceleration is on par with today’s liter bikes, such as the GSX-R 100. The main parts of the frame have been assembled from carbon fiber, keeping weight low- despite the battery packs.

The bike was built for the TTXGP Race at the Isle of man, a zero-emissions motorcycle race. It did not finish the first race due to some kinks in the eletrical system, but it looked very promising.
