Harley-Davidson unveils first electric motorcycle

#7

I was actually at a motorcycle concours at the World Golf Village last month, and there was a guy down there demoing an electric sport bike very similar to this one, although it was a model that's already being produced for sale.  The oddest thing about it was it was so quiet.  But, the bike was super quick off the line because those electric motors don't have to wind up the way gas motors do.  When you throttle, it goes. 

 

One thing is for sure.  That bike got a lot of attention. 

 

If the sounds are accurate for the Harley based on the teasers I've seen, it's got a real high pitched whine that almost reminds me of Tron. If they start rolling them out to dealers, I've got a buddy I'll bug about doing a test ride over at Adamac. 


Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
