Electric Motorcycles Anyone?

Not a bike guy. But want feedback from those of you that are. Would you consider something like this? My feeds are getting polluted with them ever since I followed something about electric bicycles.

This one has a top speed of 70mph and a range of 80 miles. It is 11k. A good option for an urban environment?

This one is 11,500. Same specs as the first one.

Not a bike guy so my feedback is not very educated. I don't hate the looks of the ones you posted. The 10k plus price tag is probably stiff if you are looking for cheap transportation around a city.

Also, I must have clicked on the same thing because I've seen a lot of related stuff (and watches for some reason) in my feeds.

This one was semi-interesting. Will go 40mph with 90 miles range and recharges fast, like 3 hours. More of a moped than a motorcyle to me though.

Only interesting to EV guys is my guess. Nobody I know with a Harley would be caught dead on one of those.

You are correct. Something like this in the summer months would be awesome for me!

Indian motorcycle owner, 2x EV owner, e-bike and e-scooter owner. I should be their target market. Styling is sort of retro cool but my overall impression is “overgrown and overpriced Surron” - those e-dirt-bikes you see teens terrorizing the streets with constant wheelies. Maybe I am too much of an old man. Get off my lawn!

I test rode a Zero, they're quick and you don't realize how fast you're going because they're so quiet. IT was neat but I'll take my big, loud, unrefined Italian twins every day of the week.

I’m not sure about in North America but in some cities in other parts of the world where scooters and motorcycles are the primary mode of transportation, something like this would be a great option.

Travis, those are my thoughts but the 10k plus price makes me question the viability of that idea.

So many kids in my neighborhood have these Surron e-bikes. I'm pretty impressed at how long they're able to do wheelies down the street. I'm also curious what parents are spending $5k+ for these things.

I noted driving through the center of town the other day that out of the 6 kids I saw on bikes, 5 were electric. Not good for the future conditioning of america.

This looks nice - retro-ish but not denying that its electric - and electric bikes and motorcycles make so much sense. The "Loud pipes save lives" crowd is gonna pop a vein over these things though.

Super City Ebike? 😂
