Source: website ILL Moto | THE PACK has been keeping up with Michel Riis Eriksen and his company, Switch Motorcycles, for several years now. It appears that he has a new exciting project in the works for us to follow. Michel is also one of the co-founders of ILL MOTO, a Danish company that manufactures high-performance electric dirt bikes. While this project is still in development, the team has released some information about their latest creation: the ILL Moto PDQ1 MX bike.
Michael Riis (during a video test): “We can’t seem to break the darn thing… which is good. We gave it a very hard try though. We ripped it through the dirt, wheelied through the mud and emptied out a couple of fully charged batteries. We got a lot of more testing to do – which makes having a dirt track in your backyard a pretty nice thing. Once this beast has passed a couple of more tests – ya’ll should swing by and give it a go.”
