Hamamatsu - Suzuki reportedly is developing a hybrid motor sport that combines inline-4 engine and electric motor. This development is known as patent drawing widespread.
Visordown launch on Thursday (07/23/2015), the patent diagram as seen at the top shows the frame and exhaust GSX-R1000 is packaged in a squat and sporty dimensions as a conventional supersport motorcycles with a capacity of 600 cc.
What sets it apart is the presence of an electric motor which is indicated by the number 43. This indicates clearly that they developed a hybrid motor.
Meanwhile, the battery is visible under the seat with number 32. Its size indicates that the battery will only be used for short trips. Visordown say that the system is generally similar to the Toyota Prius.
A switch on the right handlebar also apparently allows the rider to choose between using the electric mode, gasoline, or both.
This new development in the stage of filing a patent. Therefore, there are many processes that must be taken before going into production.
Suzuki himself was not the first to develop hybrid motors. Early last year, for example, military motorcycle SilentHawk also uses a hybrid system. In 2011, Honda Goldwing also developed a similar system.
