LiveWire: The First Electric Harley

Harley-Davidson has developed a new electric bike but let’s not call it the Prius of the motorcycle world – it’s still a Harley after all. For those of you devotees who still expect a rumbling, V-Twin gas engine it’s all there. The “Project LiveWire” bikes were developed to expand beyond Harley’s baby-boomer fan base to reach younger and more diverse customers. These high-tech motorcycles reach around 60 miles per hour in 4 seconds and travel up to 60 miles before a charge is needed. Think you would make the switch? See what Jay Leno has to say about the electric-engined motorcycle:
