Looks alright....75 hp / 52 ft-lbx / 0 - 60 mph in just under 4 sec.....they don' say how much it weighs or costs. Demographics are changing.....the "My Dad Drove a Harley" crowd is dwendling. But like all electric bikes....I suspect you're not likely to see one on the road in the next 25 years.

This thing will sure put a damper on the Harley attitude, "If You Don't Ride A Harley, You Ain't S**t, and their absolutely brain dead 'safety' mantra, "Loud Pipes - Save Lives". But, then, the thing will probably come with a dual CD disk player, with one CD welded in place, with the sounds of a no mufflers H-D Chomper that plays whenever the key is in the run position. |

How would a poseur bad boy butt chopper biker, with "I'm better than you are, I ride a Harley" bad attitude, hold his head up when he rode past everyone and the bike only made a HHHHHUUUUMMMMMMM sound? Oh, wait, I forgot about the open pipes CD player noise. |

Actually if one thinks about it (I know waste of time.... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And honestly, if I never heard a Harley/clone again, it would be too soon........ To me, they just sound like badly running hit and miss motors...... ![]() ![]() ![]() |
