Type electric motorcycle into google search and all you see is Harley this and that. And for what? a bike that isn't even ready yet? A bike that is well behind the already produced bikes like Zero, Brammo, Lightning, etc etc. Nobody can market up news and followers like Harley Davidson. Let's just hope their new model doesn't find a way to leak oil.

As an owner of a Harley I was surprised to see that they were developing an electric. I think everyone else was too hence the widespread publicity. I was very disappointed in the range at almost half of other EV bikes.

Harley is smart when it comes to sales. They know that in ten years, most new bikes will be EV. This will create a Challenge for Harley because the days of vibrating and loud bikes will be over, done. And, where will Harley be? They will be fighting for EV dollars like everyone else.
Announcing the Lightning now got them into the EV game instantly. This will get their current owners associating Harley with EV and warm them up to the idea. Very smart.
I wonder who is gonna just buy Zero? Yes, I said it. Polaris already bought Brammo.
