BRD RedShift SM Electric Motorcycle
When tearing up the city on two wheels I tend to reach for the supermoto inspired bikes. They are nimble, lightweight, and fun to ride in the tighter areas. The folks at BRD Motorcycles have one cool little fun machine dubbed the RedShift SM ($15,495). Outside of the price tag and the 50-mile range I think this is one cool bike.
The RedShift SM is a race sumo without the oil changes. It is designed for everything a city can throw at a bike. Because of its off-road roots, it may be pretty but it’s not precious. Feel free to beat on it, but remember: just because it is fully capable of launching stair gaps and airing out the crests of San Francisco hills does not mean we condone that use or behavior in any way.
