American outfit MotoCzysz, the reigning TT Zero champions, have confirmed they would be returning to the Isle of Man with two bikes and riders for this year's TTZero, one of which will be BSB front-runner Michael Rutter.
The MotoCzysz E1pc was ridden to victory in the 2010 Race by American rider Mark Miller, who won by nearly two minutes with a record setting average lap speed of 96.82 mph around the 37 ¾ mile course. Miller will return with the #1 plate on an upgraded 2010 E1pc for the 2011 race meeting.
He will be joined in the Oregon based outfit Rutter who will be piloting the all-new 2011 MotoCzysz E1pc. Rutter already has 12 victories at the North West 200 festival in Northern Ireland, and one win and eight further podium finishes at the Isle of Man TT.
“I’ve followed the electric bike series on the Isle of Man with interest over the last two years and I’m really pleased to get the opportunity to take part this year. It will be a totally new experience for me, despite the fact that I’ve been racing for over 20 years, but one I’m really looking forward to," said the Midlander.
