Due to the range increases iI”m only using about 20pct battery in 7 lap race or 12 minute practice session. About 30 pct in 20 min moto session.
I would be very interested in purchasing a 1/2 size battery that is lighter and designed for mass centralization. Any other moto riders on the forum that would also purchase one?
The Stsrk already lays down so well and also feels very light in the air. I can’t imagine if it lost 10lbs and got even better mass centralization. I would pay 2k for this battery and I feel many other moto riders would as well.

They already kinda did that for Thomas Do racing France SX tour in 2023. He said that for the last 2 rounds they got him a lighter battery.
They had probably removed 1 of the 4 parallel sets of 100 cells in series, so same voltage, maximum power reduced to 60 hp (reduced torque as well) and you save 7 kg. You're down at 4.9 kWh which was plenty for SX tour 10-12 min races.
