High Performance Racing Motorcycle Alternator
Minimizing total engine mass In racing motorcycles is of paramount importance because ever extra ounce reduces acceleration, and, hence, performance. Designers are therefore very keen to shed any unnecessary mass.
Allied Motion engineers helped by redesigning one of our HT brushless torque motors for use as a racing motorcycle alternator. The new design enabled a reduction in mass of nearly 90% and inertia of about 80%, resulting in a substantially more compact and lighter generator.
