They say racing improves the breed, so CAKE is taking their Bukk racing. Introducing the CAKE Enduro Factory team: Emelie Dahl (SWE) and Robert Kvarnström (SWE) will compete in a couple of enduro races in 2023 on the recently launched Bukk. The plan is for a full-force launch at enduro and off-road races throughout Europe and USA in the Spring of 2024.
"It feels amazing to finally start racing for CAKE," says Kvarnström, CAKE Enduro team leader. "After the first Bukk test days, Emelie and I are confident, and our sole ambition is to simply win the races we participate in." He admits the previous Kalk races "have been met with different emotions from other race participants." However the Bukk is purpose built and intended to "continue racing for real."
Kvarnström adds, "It important to be able to influence a large portion of the moto community. People need to understand that motor power does not necessarily equate to fast lap times and this will become the perfect evidence." The Bukk emphasizes the importance of electric, lightweight and nimble motorcycles with powerful acceleration as key elements shaping the future of the sport. "This will be an eye-opener for many, including myself. We are faster on these machines in several formats and conditions, and it creates many new racing opportunities."
"With the mission to accelerate towards a zero emission society combining excitement with responsibility, the racing scene has huge potential," claims CAKE CEO and founder Stefan Ytterborn. "This initiative is crucial to have the ability to beat traditional motorcycles on their hometurf, become a clear start for even looking at, considering and eventually even getting its first electric racing machine."
The CAKE Factory Team will race the Bukk Power Light. Bukk is the newest addition to the CAKE lineup and developed the lightest competitive enduro bike on the market. More details on the CAKE Enduro Team and its upcoming races can be found at:
