Damon Hypersport | 2020-2021

Designers: Jay Giraud and Dom Kwong, LMGPR, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Manufacturer: Damon Motors, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

Damon was born to push limits. It is challenging the motorcycling establishment, changing the rules. It’s showing the world that the future of motorcycling is smarter, safer, more exhilarating, and personal when there’s a fusion of human and machine.

It is the first project to use deep technology & AI, so that every time someone rides a Damon he/she and the bike evolve to tightly understand one another.

The entire experience and ecosystem of safety, performance & awareness has been built around that symbiotic relationship. No other motorcycle brand has done that.

Technology should adapt to humans, not the other way around. Damon breathes life into every high-performance electric motorcycle it builds.

Every Damon truly knows its rider; it learns, adapts, anticipates needs and predicts behavior. So that it reacts as if it’s become part of the user.

It connects you to the world in a new, hyper-attuned way. If you haven’t experienced a situation on the road before, rest assured that Damon already has.

Damon’s proprietary SHIFT and 360° Predictive Awareness technology reduces rider cognitive load, so that reaching a flow state is more attainable.

And by using AI to classify the type of rider and bring data directly to them (without searching for it) means riders are inherently safer, and they can focus on the exhilaration of riding one of the fastest electric motorcycles ever built. And the more you ride a Damon the more you & the bike evolve to tightly understand one another.

But Damon isn’t just a fusion of rider and motorcycle. It’s a fusion of safety & high-performance. Of light-weight battery design fused with structural framing. Of confidence & exhilaration.

A sport & commuter. Legacy industry and the future. New energy fused with the needs of the earth.

HyperSport
An electric bike that recharges you. Exhilarating. Smarter. Safer.

The HyperSport is the world’s safest, smartest, fully connected electric motorcycle. The electric superbike boasts well over 200 hp and 200 nm of torque delivered at zero rpm, a top speed of 200 mph, a range of more than 200 highway miles per charge, and sets a new standard in motorcycle safety, awareness and connectivity.

All HyperSport models come standard with:
• Fully Integrated Charging System - CCS fast charging gets you back to 80% in just 45 minutes
• Vehicle-to-Home Connectivity - The HyperSport can invert up to 6.6 kW of backup power into your home
• Over-the-Air Updates - Keep your bike up to date with all the latest features even after you bring it home
• CoPilotTM – Damon’s advanced warning system powered by Blackberry QNX technology that uses radar, cameras, and non-visual sensors to track the speed, direction and velocity of up to 64 moving objects around the motorcycle for unparalleled situational awareness.

CoPilot intuitively always knows what’s around you by tracking and warning you of danger. Our onboard neural net intuitively scans around & alerts you to potential danger through haptic feedback on the handlebars, integrated windscreen LEDs, always-on 1080p front & rear-view cameras and long-range radar.

• ShiftTM – Damon’s patented rider ergonomics that lets you electronically adjust the Hypersport’s riding position between sport and commuter modes while in motion with the push of a button. With electronically controlled adjustability, ShiftTM is ideal for start-stop city traffic & high speed freeway conditions.

• HyperDriveTM – The world’s first 100% electric, multi-variant powertrain platform optimized for maximum performance, design and safety. It features 450 nominal volts, a high-energy pack enabling a multitude of battery capacities, track-ready performance, lightweight 48 lb. motor, 6.6kWintegrated charger, and proprietary 150+kW Inverter.

HyperDrive is engineered to act as a structural component of the motorcycle itself. The battery enclosures not only optimize weight distribution for high-speed stability and handling, but also act as the motorcycle’s load-bearing frame, saving both weight and cost, and further reducing bulk. HyperDriveTM high-energy pack design is a structural power plant built for many battery capacities - forming the core of the future’s most ground-breaking and exhilarating motorcycles.
