Serial1: Harley-Davidson Spins Off Ebike Company
www.serial1.com
Maybe way too early to post this, with almost no details available yet on the bike itself. Apparently about 3 weeks away from a further reveal, and bike available next Spring. What seems to be revealed so far is a cruiser/town mid-motor, belt drive bike. Last edited by ORMojo; 10-27-2020 at 02:35 PM. Reason: Add image |

Wonder if they will be annoying loud as well.

I heard a rumor that they will be over 1,000 W – but most of that is to make "engine" noise.

interesting.
i wonder how many HD believers would also be in the market for an e-bike? the HD brand is pretty powerful, but that might be a bridge too far for the bike week crowd. we'll see!

My gut reaction to e-bikes is to hate on them, but then I remind myself they are displacing a car much more than they are a cyclist gone lazy. Hope this does well.

Agreed that the ebike buyer isn't a harley buyer. But Bosch makes appliances and Yamaha makes motorcycles and they make OE motors for ebikes. At this point, more products on the market is more better.

This is the first time H-D is trying to innovate in like 60-70 years so we probably shouldn't bash them.
Not seeing any electric motorcycles or eBikes in the news from the other traditional moto manufacturers. From what they're showing on the page right now it looks like a pretty gorgeous bike if you're into that kind of bike. It has major design callbacks to the earliest H-D motorcycles that were essentially bicycles with a motor grafted on for board track racing. Last edited by benb; 10-27-2020 at 02:16 PM. |

harley davidson engines are extremely efficient at converting gasoline into noise. there are only a few horsepower as byproduct.
