I can just see a burly biker pulling to a biker bar on one!!
He better be about 6'10", go about 350 and look like a pro wrestler or else he ain't leavin'.....at least with any dignity. Electric bikes may have a future at resorts as rentals or city commuters but I don't see them as a replacement for gas engine bikes.
I think with more electric stations popping up in major cities, electric motorcycles will get more popular. They have been around for a good amount of time, let's see if HD opens the door for people into these kind of motorcycles.
From what I read about these bikes, going 70+mph without hearing or feeling an engine, is pretty unreal.

I think if and with Harley that's a big if, the price is not totally nuts, this bike will sell and sell good, I have a Harley Ultra Classic, and a Turbocharged Hayabusa, and I would buy one of Harleys electrics in a minuite, to go to and from work, then mama could ride it when we were out, (shes not good with clutches and gears)
Well, that was sorta out of left field... I do like the HD 750 though, I hope they work out the bugs.
What bugs? I thought they were just smaller versions of the VRod.
I have worked in the motorcycle business for almost 30 years.
This is a marketing stunt. They do not make an electric bike or do they have one in development. That bike belongs to another and has been customized to look like an HD. They do have a new 500 & 750 that they want riders to stop in and see......hint hint....until they release their electric bike....Lol
Just like Amazon's drone delivery or Dodge's Tomahawk V10 motorcycle......Just something to get the main stream media talking about. Something to get every non-motorcycling rider water cooler conversation started.

Have any sources? I have not read anywhere this is a hoax.

I'm not saying it is a hoax, I would never say that. It is a clever marketing ploy. Do you consider Amazon's drone delivery proposal a hoax? HD will not deliver a production, 100% electric, motorcycle before 2019.....I promise.
This is grabbing print headlines and popping up all over social media and television. Harley Davidson is good at building motorcycles, but they are incredible marketers. The world has been duped into talking about this. It does not have to come to immediate fruition, it was a brilliant move orchestrated perfectly......WE ARE TALKING ABOUT HD.
