In one week’s time, Mavizen (a product of Team Agni’s TTXGP race-winning electric motorcycle team) will release what they call the world’s first production electric racing superbike, the TTX02. With a teaser image hitting the TTXGP website today, speculation is already swirling around the company, its bike, and its RC8 look-alike chassis.

With Mavizen earlier stating that its chassis was sourced from a major motorcycle manufacturer, it seems clear now who got the nod. With only a handful of company’s using trellis frames in their design, this photo leaves speculation down to really only Ducati and KTM. After a little searching, we have what appears to be an RC8 frame and swingarm packaged around a two-motor powerplant developed by Agni Motors.

Mavizen hopes to sell this racing platform to teams who wish to compete in the upcoming eGrand-Prix series. The bike will be offered as a turn-key racer, with a TTXGP winning pedigree. From the press release:

“The Mavizen TTX02, gives potential participants a chance to acquire a bike that they can develop themselves to make it competitive and unique to them. Racing is brutal but at least with the Mavizen TTX02, the racers can start with a proven platform.”

The press release goes on to sat that the Mavizen TTX02 is the first factory production vehicle to be delivered with a dedicated IP access and connectivity to the network…whatever the hell that means. Interested buyers can sign-up now for one of the 50 units that will be produced and delivered in Q1 of 2010.
