One of the greatest things about the electric motorcycles and scooters is their acceleration. Thanks to the very constructive nature of these vehicles, they are capable of effortlessly surpassing pretty much any traditional bike when it comes to short-distance acceleration.
With electric these electric motors capable to deliver all the power and torque right off idle in just fractions of a second and being less affected by the need to rev at high rpm to deliver top performance, it's rather easy to understand why throttling hard on an e-bike would lead to a crash in 99% of cases.
What's even funnier is the fact that even the small scooters are behaving exactly the same away: basically, one does not need an electric sport bike to crash. Good for the kid that his brother urged him to wear a helmet, even though he did not crash too hard.
