Under the Weather

Had a great test ride today. Harley-Davidson LiveWire has a very strong, broad powerband and handles quite well as a quiet (and sweet smelling) street bike.

Expected sunny weather but instead got drenched by a cloudburst when approaching the foothills around the valley, so I stuck with the streets around town and put off riding the winding back roads. Still, lots of fun.

Interested in the drive to electrify California? With focus on electric motorcycles? LiveWire is #1 in the lineup of futuristic transportation vehicles.

Just think of the many issues needing resolution before the year 2034, including fortifying the energy grid and making electric recharging more convenient.

It’s an exciting challenge.
