New Energica Futurama

Sorry, we mean 'Midnight Runner'

New Energica Futurama

OKAY, it's not called the Futurama. It's just that every time we look at it, we can't help wondering if that's where we last saw it.

This is in fact the new Midnight Runner, from electric bike maker Energica and based on the firm's 136hp Eva, which has range of up to 124 miles on a charge.

The electric 'café racer' is a collaboration between Energica and another Italian firm, Apache Custom Motorcycles.

The aim was to make it look like a 1970s Grand Prix bike according to Energica. 

We quite like it despite our earlier cynicism. What do you think?

Should it have gone to Specsavers?
