Thread: Getting power out of a harley

I kicked the tyres on a Livewire today. Holy shit fuck. Talk about quick! See a gap, semi-pin it and you’re there. The acceleration from stopped is unbelievable. Doesn’t have the top end of a rice rocket, but for a city commuter in traffic, just brilliant. No gear changes to worry about, a ton of engine braking (regenerative) in sports mode, over 200 km range with a conservative riding mode, a very impressive bit of kit. But the price point in NZ just kills it, which is sad because once you’ve ridden it, it’s hard to walk away from.
