There's always someone who's forward thinking and has the money to play. We've got our toys and we play in the sand box we're comfortable in and make fun of the other kids because they're different and we think we know better.
Like all new tech (and yeah electric motorcycles are still new tech even if the first one was in the 1800s) bleeding edge costs money. And the electric H-D looks to be the best looking electric I've seen. All y'all have relatives who freaked at the cost of the first car and motorcycle when perfectly good horses were much cheaper. And they too badmouthed motor vehicles without knowing what they were talking about.
Progress will always leave some people behind. It's human nature on both sides of the coin. The H-D is too pricey for me and will be for a long time. But I like the way it looks and the concept of an electric belt-drive bike. No motor no chain. I like.
100/150/200mi. The range will always be too short for some people especially with the lack of a charging infrastructure. Guess what. They're not the target market. If it ain't for you it ain't for you. That doesn't make the bike wrong.
And without it we'd only have oil moly filters tires helmets GPSs phones and counter steering (to name a few) of which to complain and explain.
Is this a great country or what.
