Damon Motorcycles is going head-to-head with big names with the debut of its first EV.

Canadian mobility startup Damon Motorcycles has set foot into the EV arena with a preview of its first e-moto, the Hypersport Pro. The Vancouver-based firm had previously focused on creating digital safety technology to augment two-wheelers made by other manufacturers. This time, the firm has decided to come up with its own EV model.

“We are for the first time being black and white about the fact that we are a full-on producer. We have a motorcycle we’re going to unveil at CES,” says Damon Motorcycles founder and CEO Jay Giraud as quoted from Tech Crunch.

According to Damon Motorcycles, the machine is the fully electric Damon Hypsersport Pro. It is set to make its debut in January. Therefore, information regarding the specifications is scarce. Although, Giraud is clear that this bike is meant to be a direct competitor to the latest e-motos released by big brands. It very much includes Harley-Davidson, Zero Motorcycles and even to the gas-motorcycle market overall.

“We’ve come at this and the motorcycle problem in a way that no other company has,” Giraud explained.

“We’re trying to change the industry by addressing the issues of safety and handling and comfort and the problems that have persisted with everyone in the industry, including all the e-moto companies today.”

Damon’s Hypersport Pro features the company’s CoPilot system. It uses sensors, radar and cameras to detect and track moving objects around the motorcycle. This includes blind spots and alert riders to danger. The bike enables riders to electronically shift the motorcycle’s windscreen, seat, footpegs and handlebars. It allows the bike to accommodate for different positions and conditions.

“We have so many advantages the others don’t have and we’re leveraging every one of their weaknesses,” adds Giraud.

“You’re gonna love the horsepower and range and all that good stuff. But that’s not what makes Damon different from everyone else. What’s different is that it’s a safer motorbike with the safety features and transforming ergonomics that will keep you from smashing into someone’s car,” he concludes.
