[twowheeladdict]

Evidently there is this for the skinny jeaned latte sippers. https://www.advrider.com/2023-harley-davidson-x350-and-x350ra-details-emerge/  Evidently the 750 from a couple years ago was too big......

Those are for the MSF courses.

Agreed completely .............. of course first their going to have to address where/how all that electricity is going to be generated ( without any pollution of course)   

Ciao

In a commonsense world yes.
But humans breed faster than the cities can cope.
More cars are produced than our roads can handle.
More suburbs are developed than there is infrastructure to support….etc

There is no rule that says
“You may not produce an electric vehicle until you can recharge it cleanly…”
Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Mazda etc, will just build the car because they know it will be taken up and they’ll just say…
“You recharge it any way you like..”

Let's all just cut to the chase....The bike below is....UGLY...HEAVY. ..and "silly expensive...."

So is a Diavel, Rune, Goldwing, Rocket 3, et al…

I test rode a Livewire and it was a blast. It was wicked fast and the weight was down low and I didn’t notice it in turns,etc. It looked to be well made with superior finish. Price of course was an issue but I’d love to own one.

Couldn't agree more. An absolute rocket to ride.  Never considered price, range, and all that because I wasn't buying one, but just to ride it-total fun.
But then again, the 14K I put on a Rocket III in one northeast riding season was a blast, too.  Kinda like the old RoadRunners from the 70's.  Just stupid fun for fun's sake.

Typical modern reporting that is misinformation spread by those who only read headlines.  Only those who read the entire article get to the possible quotes.

One thing always to remember about newspapers articles. The author of the article does not pick the title of it. So another person writes the header to the article. So often that header is very misleading.
