When news broke on Harley-Davidson’s electric motorcycle, the Interwebz were abuzz. The haters hated, the EV fans rejoiced, and you couldn’t go anywhere without seeing a reference to the bike. Hey, it was even on BBC.
But what about Harley-Davidson – what does the MoCo itself have to say about the machine? Here’s a short video from CNN, talking with Matt Levatich, Harley-Davidson’s president and COO. You can get a good earful of what the bike sounds like too. It sounds suspiciously like a Dust Buster …
I am not a rich man. I have oft said… when a major manufacturer… with an honourable warrenty… offers an electric motorcycle… I will buy one. Lord, please let it not be H-D.

The more I see these, the more I hope that H-D brings them to market. I think they look great and, actually, sound great, too.
