Harley-Davidson Electric Motorcycle
Project LiveWire New Harley-Davidson Electric Motorcycle
Harley-Davidson has taken the wraps off a top-secret electric motorcycle prototype — a rocket ship they call the LiveWire.
I’ll borrow Willies own words to this electric bike project. (summarized from the V-4 project back in 1979) If it don’t sound like a HD, we will not build/sell it.
.DO NOT expect it to come to market.
53 Miles per charge? Some Harley riders have said the target market for this concept was probably the new age limp wrist metro-sexual male because this is nothing more but a castrated Harley… That’s a glorified Vespa. Who would’ve thought that the Harley of the future would sound like my girlfriends blow dryer?
Plus, it’s too small! It looks like a beginner’s bike. The reason the Nissan Leaf isn’t selling is because it looks like a $14k car, but it cost $35k. Don’t make that mistake Harley. I do like the headlight.
The Harley spirit died when this thing came out, I’m happy for you guys that like it but it just not for me. It might have the Harley-Davidson name but to me it’s just not a Harley.
Hopefully it’s just an experimental engineering project. It doesn’t have “attitude” and all the hype this is just trying to sell the concept. It’s the Harley “Prius” – takes more energy to build one than it will ever save.
