E-Raw, the Wooden Seat Electric Cafe Racer

E-Raw is an electric motorcycle that wears Expemotion’s badge, a French motorcycle manufacturer specialized in custom motorcycles.

We are not very fond of electric motorcycles, but this electric café racer style machine seems to have something special. It is called E-Raw and at the core of this bike we find a steel trellis frame with the battery and a part of the engine bolted on. The whole bike is made in the most minimalist way. The retro handlebars stand proof of this fact.

This electric motorcycle was build by Expemotion, a French company specialized in custom bikes. Expemotion offers the possibility to personalize the bike regarding to everyone’s taste. So, you have a wide range of parts to choose from modern to classic. As an example, you can fit Yamaha MT headlights or Kawasaki Z headlights.

It is a shame that at this point we don’t have any information on engine specs, battery or performance. All we can see is an upside-down fork, belt drive final transmission, double front brake discs and the best part, a smartphone app that allows you to connect the propulsion system. Actually, there are no instruments. The smartphone is the dashboard and reveals information about speed, battery autonomy and so on.

Expemotion E-Raw has something truly special. The seat is made from 80 layers of wood and is a one piece. It’s build from where a fuel tank used to be and it curves all the way to the passenger. It can hold one person and most likely is not very comfortable.
