The "ticking" felt at the stoplight is probably the haptic feedback function H-D built into the Livewire, so that people couldn't easily forget that they were sitting on a "live" bike with the absence of the noise and vibration of an internal combustion engine.
@@ButBigger42 No doubt. And H-D said that they were concerned that riders could find themselves casually sitting on, or standing beside the bike, while talking to friends or other riders and accidentally or absent mindedly turn the throttle and launch the bike.
If you need a reminder, or easily forget that you're on a "live" bike, then you shouldn't be on a bike.the only bike anyone should be allowed on if they forget should be a huffy.
I rode the Livewire this week. It was nerve wracking for all of 30 seconds, and then I loved it! The chassis felt nimble, brakes were responsive, torque was awesome, and most surprisingly, I didn’t miss the V-Twin sound as much as I thought I would. However, the price and range are going to be the downfall of this bike. The older generation likely isn’t interested, and the younger generation (I’m 21) likely doesn’t have $30,000 to shell out on an electric motorcycle that has a range of just over 100 miles. That puts it in a pretty small niche. I’m excited to see what Harley does with this technology going forward.
Yup. They completely missed the mark. The idiot boomers that still buy Harley don’t want electric. The people my age who want electric performance, aren’t willing to pay Harley money for it. I can’t even justify the Zero Fx. And that’s about $10k. And the Zero at least can swap batteries. Harley will most likely fade away in the near future.
@Fred Maldonado920 And yet if they market the Livewire as a city runabout it now has competition from electric bicycles. Which can park almost anywhere, carried into an apartment for charging and cheaper.
31:30 in case of Regen, the motor doesn't turn in the opposite direction. All it does is, instead of it spinning the wheels, it gets spun by the wheels(due to inertia) and essentially behaves like a dynamo and thus charges the battery. Great review and great video bdw.
Just traded in our 7th leased four wheel vehicle and bought a 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-e GT ext range EV. What a cultural shift, but in three weeks after a few trips beyond it's range and and my wife's daily commutes. The fun and efficiency soon erases all range anxiety and I.C.E. expectations. This Thursday I will purchase a LiveWire EV. The model will depend on the conditions of the sale for each model. Thank you for sharing, Ride Free
These electric motorcycles are currently just high priced city commuters. It takes me 60 miles of highway one way just to get to the canyons. Maybe in the future when charging is much faster and battery capacity is much better I'd look into a EV bike. Until then ICE bikes can't be beat.
I put down a deposit on the Del Mar. Probably because I used lived there. I have owned a Sportster since 2001 and currently also have an '21 SX1000, '21G310R, '92 Electric Glide. The One might better fit me needs, but the Purple reminds me of NYU days
OC: Was able to test ride one of these back before the split from Harley. Best test ride I ever had. Still waiting for the price to go down a bit more before I commit to buying one of these though
OC: Definitely looking forward to getting an electric bike! Rented a Zero SR/F for 48 hours for my birthday and had a blast. Ducati said they're going to bring a street version of their new MotoE bike out between 2025-2030 so I have a few years to save up but that WILL be my next bike. That bike looks epic!
OC: Love this bike and the chance for EVs on 2 wheels. I rode one branded as the HD Livewire and would totally own one but as a 2nd bike. The range is a issue for me right now and anything other than day-trips the charging makes it hard to own as a primary machine. The problem I have is it only charges at Level 1 or 3. It doesn't support the Level 2 charging which I bet would charge to full in like 2-3 hours max. Its far easier to find L2 charging vs L3. Hopefully with a version 2 of this machine it would allow for some improvements to their charging options and time for fast chargers to show up in more places.
NEW Subscriber here! Why? Your energy! Your laughter! All contagious Bro! Awesome coverage on an EV Bike too! Too many "traditional," riders on UA-cam talking sh-- and laughing at it while riders like you embrace changes, differences and modern twists!!! Keep the energy and passion coming!!!!!
I really love seeing some stoke electric bikes. I rode a HD Livewire and absolutely loved it. It shouldn't have to be said but it's obviously a street fighter, naked bike type of ride and not a touring bike. And its really awesome for what it is
I'm not a Harley person, like I mentioned in on of the newer videos where the newer Homeboy (forgot the name sorry) went to a Harley Rideout. But this bike is also super interesting, only if it weren't so expensive.
I have the Zero SR/S Premium. I checked out the livewire first before buying it. There are pros and cons on both but for me the weight, speed and riding position was better on the Zero. Your preference may be different.
OC: I'm very much excited for Electric Motorcylce offerings moving forward. I ride a R3, so I already ride as if no one hears me, so I'm fine with that.
OC. You nailed it Chase. As the tech advances, and there are more and more of them on the road, EVs have a big future, and I think it's excellent. More options is never a bad thing, especially when the new options are capable of being absolute rippers.
That's my issue on my Zero SR, I always have it in Custom with everything turned up all the way and hammer on the throttle pretty hard all the time so my range suffers. I still get 100 miles without much trouble.
22:16 how do you handle your throttle? I've rode Harleys for more then 10 years, never had anything similar to how you described it. I'm pretty sure it's a "you" problem, that you could easily fix by just gripping the throttle normally.
You can’t start the motor with the side stand down. Lights were not green they were yellow at the start. Entertaining video but quite a few mistakes in it. Might be an idea to read up before riding the bikes to get a better handle on the details.
OC: I’ll be ready for the electrification of vehicles when solid state batteries become available. As a tech guy it’s awesome but I’m not completely sold just yet.
@@theonlyredspecial definitely not a lighter person. I definitely need to adjust it. The app has a calculator for it as well, just haven't got around to it
I understand all this electric scooters, electric motorcycle it’s all about saving gas I get it you guys solved that. Here’s my another concern. Since it’s electric cars don’t hear you but, you’re there. For safety can they put speakers with module with different sounds of motorcycles so that cars they know you’re there. I hope they thought about that.
OC: I'm feeling pretty ready to get an EV bike as the prices come down. Range isn't a huge issue, but 100 miles highway would be nice. The newest Livewire is more my jam at $15k-ish, and 80 ish miles. Like most EVs, it's not the most cost effective option, except for the lack of drivetrain maintenance costs. After driving a fast EV car (Tesla Model S Plaid, so the very fast one), it turns out that you don't miss engine noises when you're going for the most part. Fast is fast, and the sound of the wind ripping past you and your blood in your ears is generally enough!
@@chrispewkreme I did check em out, and I'm still here boss. Harley has a style down, and I'm not a fan of Zero these days thanks to their paywalling of features.
OC: I am super excited about the shift to electric motors. Electric vehicles are so much fun and a lot easier to live with and lower running costs and time spent on maintenance.
You do realize over 80% of the electricity produced that powers EVs is made by fossil fuel burning, mining for the minerals (lithium, cobalt, nickle, etc.) for the batteries is highly polluting as well, additionally China will have us dependant on them since they produce the most minerals for the batteries, same situations coming into play with fossil fuels. It won't be cleaner/greener and a less dependent energy alternative. Not to mention getting rid of the batteries. Besides, only 9% of carbon emissions are produced by vehicles, the main culprit are industrial and deforestation. I also see nobody mentioning EVs are extremely heavy compared to their ICE counterparts and will be a huge safety hazard causing far more injuries and deaths on the road. They weigh 30%-50% more due to their batteries.
Lmao. Well you do sacrifice sound with autos, but gosh Dangit a bike is a bike in my opinion, and I’m a big bike guy and tech guy so electric auto trans sporty looking bikes is right up my ally.
Not one for synchronicity, however chase ends up behind a college sticker, Georgia Tech, The only? collegiate stickers ever in a first ride background. LiveWire manifesting,(joke)
SO, I would say that the ZERO motorcycles DON'T copete with the Livewire. something like the Energica Eva EsseEsse9 or Ribelle would be better comparisons. YOu should try and test drive one of those? THey are expensive, though (Just like this one). I'd like to see this bike on the mountain, even ifyou have to drive it the distance, see how charging would work. I would probably buy this over the Energicas (though something like the Ego+ would be a fun bike). as for power, acceleration is where it is for electric motorcycles. HOwever, they tend to bleed offf at faster speeds, so I probably won't beat supersports in a 1/4 mile race, maybe just 0-60, and then een that, I'm not sure. NOt sure I'd get this as a "sporty" bike. I'd go with Energica for that (Ego+, Eva EsseEsse9+), but this would be a daily commuter, even if an expensive one. You could get a MINI cooper electric vehicle for as much as this bike! or a Chevy Bolt EV or EUV for LESS than the price of this bike! OC
OC. Not about it. Range and charge time really limits it to a city commenter bike, price point is too high for what it offers, and I really rely on my exhaust to help keep me alive.
@@Shah_creates ive yet to actually do the test ride... the dealer is close to me so i can schedule it whenever... they gave me a follow up call and turned out i started a new job the same week.. been working since...
Indicators and mode switches should 100% be on the left, especially seeing as there isnt even s clutch, what is on the left? And that stand looks really sketchy. 20k only got it to be seriously compromised with poor design ....
HD discovered that it was too soon to introduce this to their core market, which was older and stuck to their ICE line up. Spinning off the brand is a way to reach a separate segment. I think in maybe a decade, if liveWire does well, you might see HD re-acquire them and come back to the HD branding. Also, the LiveWire is still made in the same PA factory, right next to all the other Harley-Davidson ICE bikes
So you can't ride around after work? And it's a huge inconvenience to constantly charge your bike after 100 miles, come on! Plug this bike up and cook some hotdogs and a steak. Good review 👍🏽
With the technology for EVs changing by the day, it won't take long for it to become an even WORSE value. Let's be honest, HD pulled the name off so they could lower the price. It's virtually the SAME bike for about $7K less because they dropped the HD badge. Until this bike (in it's current form) is dropped down to the $15-17k (ish) range, this will not sell.

I just test rode one a couple of weeks ago and I’m sold it’s actually one of my favorite bikes that I’ve ever ridden.
nice! did you end up picking one up?
I rode one at COTA and the best way to describe this bike is that it feels and sounds like you’re riding a Ghost from Halo.

OC: Was able to test ride one of these back before the split from Harley. Best test ride I ever had. Still waiting for the price to go down a bit more before I commit to buying one of these though
The used market for these is pretty good - very common to find a sub 1k mile one for less than $18k

Good to see they filled up those ugly holes in the rear fender that was on the HD Livewire.

it's a really great ride, and yeah the price does suck quite a bit - you can find good deals on used ones that have very little mileage
If they make it with the look of 48 or roaster, it’ll be awesome
If you could ever get your hands on one, should definitely try a Star Raider.
OC: I like the EV concept, but I definitely wouldn’t have this as my only motorcycle. The sound and feel of my Z900 is too good to pass up.
Yep, everyone has their reasons for riding - sound seems to be a big reason
I have the Zero SR/S Premium. I checked out the livewire first before buying it. There are pros and cons on both but for me the weight, speed and riding position was better on the Zero. Your preference may be different.
the fairings on the SR/S are sexy!

it is!
OC: Definitely here for a EV 🏍 Hopefully soon there'll be one that you can get reliable range outta it while still riding like a complete hooligan.
The new Energica Experia has some great range, although I'm not sure it's built for hooligan riding! About 160miles highway range

nailed it, same thoughts after riding one
