      But they need to actually sell them. Electric motorcycles were a thing before they weren’t. The market didn’t accept them, and I don’t think unrealistic range is going to be a major selling feature.

        We could only speculate, but maybe they’re banking on range anxiety driving sales?

          That must be some crushing range anxiety! I don’t think most motorcyclists would even want to sit on their bike for 10 hours at highway speeds for an entire day.

            It’s probably only that good if the rider weighs 90 lbs, is on flat terrain, it’s 72F, and there’s a nice tailwind (the extra bulk acts as a sail)
