Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade 2006 vs. Harley-Davidson LiveWire ELW 2019

Harley-Davidson LiveWire ELW 2019

It is interesting that Harley-Davidson, of all people, is the first of the well-known and established manufacturers to venture into series production of an electric motorbike. We find the first impression very positive. Apart from the cool look, the engine is the centre of attention. With its 116 NM, it delivers an unbelievable punch right from a standing start, which first surprises and then immediately makes you addicted. The chassis and brakes are also on a solid power naked level. Another special feature: for the first time on a Harley, all the electronic aids currently available on the market are on board. If you switch them off, you can even do wheelies and burnouts. Last but not least, the weight and range of the vehicle are also in order. About 150 kilometres are possible with a sporty city/country road mix. The battery is fully charged again to 80% in 40 minutes.
