Suzuki has announced its hydrogen motorcycle concept at Tokyo Motor Show last November, and the good news is they are ready to put this unconventional motorcycle into production. The crosscage concept motorcycle is a fuel-cell motorcycle in which a simple, compact, lightweight air-cooled fuel-cell system and a high-performance secondary battery are brought together in a way that realizes optimal power control. A fuel-cell unit from British specialist company Intelligent Energy delivers quick activation with low fuel consumption, and a lithium-ion battery combines safety with a low environmental burden. The simplicity, compactness, and lightness of these technologies not only make the crosscage environment-friendly; they also helped enable sporty styling befitting the Suzuki name.
This motorcycle was developed in conjunction with British Intelligent Energy, which make this a great collaboration since British Intelligent has its own hydrogen generation plants. Energy has a portfolio that includes a range of world-class fuel cell, fuel processing, desulphurization and hydrogen generation technologies. The company�s existing home hydrogen generation system means you�ll be able to make your own hydrogen at home. So I guess this news means you will find this motorcycle in the nearest showroom somewhere near the future.

i’ve been a motorcyclist for 32 years - didn’t even bother to get a car driver’s license.. - & i own a Suzuki GSXR1000/K3. well let me tell you : i am more than ready to cross over to the future , where do i sign ? when will we get them ? i love it \
please tell me this is the sort of concept that will actually see the light …
for it to be totally convincing, it has got to have some performance even if only that of a modern 250cc bike
anyway well done Suzuki !….

Hi, my name is William and I attend West Marin School. I am doing this reasearch project on Hydrogen cars.I would apreciate it if you could answer some questions.1.How much really do hydrogen cars help keep polution rates down? 2.How do you become a hydrogen specialist? 3.Do hydrogen cars produce a different kind of smog or bad gas? 4.What is the main difference between gas and hydrogen cars? 5.how much does hydrogen actually affect the human body?
