Wow, some of these are simply awesome. Evoke 6061 charged to 80% in 15 minutes and 142 mph top speed with a 292 mile range at a cost is 24K.

For me, dependability then cost then charge time and range would be the order of top priorities.

I guess they’ve not been on the market long enough to talk dependability/reliability and availability of service. Only one bike even mentions maintenance.

Zero was touting a 100,000 mile drive train warranty in 2013. The only real maintenance is tires and some occasional lubrication. Perhaps brake pads. Compare that to Harley shop rates for periodic maintenance...a huge difference. My Japanese bikes are very low maintenance. Mostly inexpensive oil change/oil filters/air filters and new tires about every 10,000 miles.

142 mph top speed


Really? Who in their right mind wants to go that fast on a motorcycle?
