"A 75-degree V-twin displacing 1,195 cc puts out 200 horsepower, powering the rear-wheel through a six-speed jaw-type transmission and hydraulic clutch. Electronic engine management with digital ignition adjustment ensures optimum performance. Inverted forks, twin suspension struts, a steel/carbon/titanium fame, twin front disc brake and single rear disc, and an aggressive frame/suspension geometry complete the high-performance package."
"Lotus plans to offer the C-01 in a range of liveries honoring the company's four-wheeled racing heritage, as well as a fully-customizable ordering process."

I see chains. These can't be real. ;)

200 hp at the wheel, probably chain drive. My Harley's belt driven, which I way prefer, but it's far from a "performance" bike.
It's a big fat "Lazy Boy" on wheels.

TiN annodized chain by the look of it. Regardless, it is proably got Lucas electronics. Never did care much for a Lotus. Although Sun Motorsport had a nice one where they dropped a hot-rodded drive train out of an integra type R into one.
