  • Abstract
    Low weight and volume are the principal requirements for electric components in hybrid motorcycles, and the energy storage system (ESS) is the most important part. This paper deals with the task of choosing the best ESS in two wheeled vehicles. A methodology of investigation is given in order to recognize all the data necessary to find the right technology and size for the ESS. Furthermore, simulations with finite elements and mathematical software are presented. Finally, different kind of ESSs are compared to choose the best solution for a reference motorcycle.
