Max Biaggi is aiming for Jim Hoogerhyde's E-bike record :)

I hope they have a good bodywork program! 

Jim, do you know how much HP the Lightning motor made?

Saw that... Jim, you are being mentioned together with some good company (and so is he!).

I read that Max is going to make his attempts in Bolivia, not Bville.  Did I get that right?

I understood Bolivia but who knows?  It's all good publicity albeit with a ton of sales puffery, lol.

BTW, Jim has already been faster than their 205 goal on an e-bike (so have I).   Jim said the number they're referencing was run at an AMA/FIM event at B-Ville and he posted on FB that he ran 211 at El Mirage.  IIRC he also ran 209 in the Mohave Mile (both on the Lightning with a tail).  I ran 201/206 at Loring with stock bodywork on a converted Hayabusa.

No way Max is going to do it with 200 HP w/o bodywork though!

If they are headed to Bolivia I wish them luck.... Hopefully they have a Loggie that knows how to deal with the third world 
I would not leave home until the containers are sitting on the salt....
Course layout is not easy down there... ya have to find the right patch.
