Performance is among the top USPs of the Ultraviolette F77. Powered by 25 kW BLDC motor, which pumps out an eyeball flattening 90 Nm/450 Nm of peak torque (motor/wheel) and a maximum power output of 33.5 hp at 2,250 rpm, helps the motorcycle accelerate from 0-60 km/h and 0-100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds and 7.0 seconds respectively. The top-speed of the F77 electric bike stands at a respectable 147 km/h. The electric bike comes with three riding modes – Eco, Sport and Insane – and a Park assist reverse throttle. Power is sent to the rear wheel through a X-Ring chain drive (46T rear/14T front sprockets). A single reduction helical gearbox is part of the package.

The engine is powered by three Modular Li-ion battery packs that are claimed to deliver a range of 130 km to 150 km. The charging time through a standard charger stands at 5 hours. A fast charger, however, can recharge the batteries in 1.5 hours. Charging options include a 1 kW standard vehicle-mounted charger and a 3 kW portable charger.

Braking hardware comprises a 320 mm disc with a fixed, four-piston, radial calliper at the front and a 230 mm rotor with a single-piston floating calliper at the back. The anchoring setup is governed by a dual-channel ABS. Other safety features include a side-stand sensor, lockdown mode, emergency contact alert and a fall/crash sensor.

The motorcycle is built around a steel trellis frame. Shock absorption tasks are handled by inverted telescopic forks at the front and a gas-charged, preload-adjustable mono-shock at the back. The vehicle tips the weight scale at just 158 kg.

The feature list of the motorcycle includes full LED lighting and a TFT LCD instrument console with NFC & Bluetooth connectivity. A smartphone app, available for Android and iOS users, is also part of the package. An adaptive dashboard brightness with Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) ensures a proper view of the readings. A 5-way dashboard control pad helps to toggle information on the screen. An onboard USB charger ensures that your devices do not run out of battery. The switchgear features a backlight function that enhances the premium look of the electric vehicle.

The naked roadster-style front fascia includes a full LED headlight that reminds of the unit on the CFMoto 300NK. The front forks are covered by a fibre panel. Similarly, the battery pack and the motor, too, sit behind a fibre cover. Steering duties are performed by clip-on style handlebars that would deliver sporty ergonomics. The muscular design and the split, step-up seats further enhance the sporty looks of the vehicle. The motorcycle is available in three colour options - Stealth Grey, Lightning Silver, Crimson.
