Electric Chopperwritten by -- August 19th, 2009Filed under: News & Opinions | Comments (0) |

What’s going on guys? Orange County Choppers (OCC) has unveiled the world’s first custom electric chopper in New York.
The Siemens bike has the customary OCC look, but is powered by an electric motor which will manage about 60 miles to a single charge and achieve a claimed 100mph.
“We really went full-bore on this,” OCC’s Paul Teutul Senior told NY1.com. “Recycled steel, water-based paint, it doesn’t get any greener. There’s no exhaust, there’s no fumes in the air.”
The bike has been commissioned by global engineering giants Siemens, who also contributed LED lights to the build.
“The bottom line is – the bike is futuristic, the bike will do 100 mph plus. There’s nothing like it.”
Siemens’ prototype will be dragged around trade shows and conferences, before being auctioned for charity.
