The new Harley electric motorcycle

[zman]

Really pretty cool if they can find a market..Don't know how many miles on a charge..I think electric will be the future in a big way, long after i`m gone but it will happen.

i though i was going to see a electric motor vibrate and throw bling parts all over the road LOL

I'd love to get my hands on one but I expect the price will be way out of reach.

Nice toy, it would be cool if they would standardise battery packs so that you could swap and go like propane/LPG bottles.

 

[slabghost]

Todays manufacturing practices probably make it a full day job to swap out the batteries.

Nice bike - I like it! But...how will they make it loud? Putting playing cards in the spokes?!?!

I figured anything Harley would be off topic, I do like the bike but I think it would be cooler to make your own EM..Just need the batteries and controls to to come down in price, that will happen when enough electric vehicles are out there...too early still.

I can just see it now "The last all American electric motorcycle." How will owners explain away how the Lithium in the batteries comes from China or Afghanistan?

Too quiet for Harley or motorcycles for that matter. Soulless. For people who will live in globally warmed up world.

Just see the road Saten's or whatever "group" renaming themselves to the The Westinghouse devils. It doesn't exactly exude American Muscle now does it? although saying that this year at the Isle of Man TT the race for "electric" bikes saw a track speed record of an average of over 117 MPH for one lap. see the table below of winners and times since the start of the TT zero race .
