Harley never put the great V-Rod motor in their lines to give the people to choose which motor they wanted.

I can't believe they priced them at 30k...what the hell are they thinking? The would have gotten a better return on their investment if they gave all of us old farts free gym memberships and physicals to keep us alive longer so maybe we'd buy just one more bike. Well I hope for 30k they put better bearings in it than they did in our bikes for the last 20 years. Swing and a miss.

The real entertainment will begin with the first reports of battery performance rapidly degrading.

Battery powered vehicles are not economically, logistically, or practically feasable. They are not even 'green' if you look at the overall picture.

That assumes H-D will actually sell one.

I can't believe I'm even going to ask this but..........Is there anyone stupid enough to buy that thing???

I mean....I know some stupid people. And I can't come up with one that would buy into that.

Maybe Willie G just bought heavy into Zero Motorcycle and he'll laugh all the way to teh bank when Zero stock soars because of this.
