Triumph is working on EVs too. Bedouin, the forum should have an EV category to compare and contrast upcoming technologies.

$ 30,000 dollars and it doesn't make noise? Almost forgot, liquid cooling for electronics..... on a H D A must have for the " Geek Squad". In the 70s HD partnered with AMF, I quess in the 21st century they'll partner with Apple with a bike called the " I-ride "

Bike manufacturers are noticing Zero...good product and pricing. The technology is amazing...a whole different world. Link

Aussies should be overjoyed cuz they consider bikes furniture (no oil leaks)

Indian also has a new bike out this year callled the "Challenger"! It's a 108 inch motor,it makes 122HP, is water cooled,atleast the heads are,it goes like a bastard,it's about the same weight as the Tbird, it's alittle smaller and lighter then my Springfield Dark Horse is, comes with a full fairing,saddle bags,has three performance modes,and a bunch of other stuff I can't remember.I haven't physically shaken hands with one yet,but will the next time I go over to the shop where I bought mine as they have several on the floor.I'm not gonna buy one cause I'm quite happy with the machine I have,but after seeing some of the test videos of it on line,I have say,I was impressed.Check it out on line as there's a bunch of videos out on it.Dave!!!

Regarding all these new EV bikes [Live Wire is what I think HD calls their model ] I saw a couple videos on line where these EV motorcycles ,[I guess they had a short circuit] caught on fire,and boy,did those machines BURN NICE!! lol And then,I also saw a couple of these new EV cars,which also caught on fire.But I gotta say, the gas fires don't burn any wheres near as nice as these lectric vehicles do!! So my point is,you should now carry a package of marsh mellows with ya,just in case you should come across one of these events. Then you can toast and eat em while keeping warm by the fire!! lol lol So I guess one could say: these EV vehicles do have a POSITIVE use,after all!! lol lol lol Dave!!!
