No helmet or anything, high powered "thing" in a confined space, what was he thinking might happen?

Re: 0-60 in 1 second

Well it was about 1 second from take off to impact so even at 40mph it's a pretty solid hit. In a car that is going to set off the airbag. On a bike with zero safety gear ...

Re: 0-60 in 1 second

Amazing bike (sounded just like my radio-controlled cars).
Amazing guy - I thought he sounded really quite switched on, but I can't believe he attempted a burnout without any safety gear on such a quick piece of hardware

I was mistaken or mislead. I was sure I read he died from complications but after reading their website he's fine, just a bruised ego and a little embarrased. He also admits being a douche bag for not wearing a helmet.

Re: 0-60 in 1 second

Kill-a-cycle should be renamed kill-a-man!!! LOL

Seriously, that guy was a technician not a rider. I believe kill-a-cycle got the batteries for free for giving the MIT group free advertising. Those batteries are still really expensive$$$. Lots of people out there building these electric moto's, too bad this guy gave their cause a bad name. Here are some links to others building electric bike:

Well aparently the guy just BUILDS bikes. He had forever to let off the gas. He froze like a deer in the headlights. I feel bad for the guy, but he should have had a v-8 (drink)
