    Harley charged Harley prices (15-25k) for bikes that should have cost 5k. Thats why no one bought them.

    Emotercycles still have range issues compared to gas bikes, with most topping out at 100 miles, but other modern brands are either selling them at 5k-10k or have implemented tech like battery swapping to make that range viable. Some companies are doing both.

      Zero makes cheaper EV bikes, they are some kind of money laundry because they never report sales and are private, so never reveal finances. I have yet to see one in the wild.
