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.

Think about how much you could get away with if your bike was nearly silent. :thumbup:

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.

You're right in a way, Dave, check out the video in this Cycle World test:

I like it, I'm all for stuff like this out of Harley, or anyone for that matter.
I thought it sounded cool too :o

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.... :lol: ) All the posers would think it's the next generation, and buy them. And that means one less straight piped Harley on the road. I'm all for it! :thumbup: :twisted: :lol:

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...... :lol: :lol: :lol:
