The F99 racing platform, developed over a two-year period, places significant emphasis on aerodynamics to maximise its top speed. Front air intakes channel air, creating an air curtain over the rider’s helmet at high speeds. Carbon-fibre winglets on each side activate when leaned over, reducing drag with a 30-degree range of actuation.

With a peak power of 90kW and a weight of 178kg, the F99 achieves a claimed 0-100kph acceleration in 3 seconds and boasts a top speed of 265kph, comparable to certain Japanese 600cc Supersports. While the battery remains air-cooled, the motor and controller benefit from liquid cooling. The global launch of the F99 is scheduled for 2025.

Distinguishing itself from the F77, the F99 utilizes a distinct frame designed to handle its performance capabilities. It incorporates high-end components, such as Ohlins suspension on both ends and Brembo monobloc calipers. The F99 adopts a 400-volt battery architecture, a significant increase from the F77’s 60-volt system, and features an underbraced milled swingarm. Safety measures, including the wiring harness and protocols, have been substantially reinforced to accommodate the higher voltage.
