Harley-Davidson is already struggling because they've been unable to expand their appeal to younger generations.
So they are going to try to compete with the little electric scooters that the kids rent with their cellphones?

My city rushed to get an electric bus, which failed. So the city ordered a bunch more. Government.
Despite buying a lemon, Juneau ordereing more buses...
If it doesnt work, order more.

Colder climates can be a challenge for many electric vehicles to perform well in, but it's not just the temperature causing problems for Juneau's public transit system. The Alaskan capital announced in 2021 that it would add a 40-foot, all-electric passenger bus to its fleet, but the zero-emission model has recurring mechanical problems that force Capital Transit to park the bus in the garage for weeks on end.

"There's going to be learning curves along the way," Ross said. "So while this bus has been a lemon—somewhat of a lemon—we also understand the technology is improving in leaps and bounds as time goes on."
Proterra agrees.
"With the introduction of any new technology, we expect there to be some learning curves along the way," the company told Car and Driver. "These learnings allow us to improve products. In this case, we are working to design and source a more robust harness to support Juneau's bus."

At some point in time, Harley Davidson will be all-electric,” the executive [Harley-Davidson CEO Jochen Zeitz] recently told Dezeen. “But that’s a long-term transition that needs to happen. It’s not something you do overnight.

Indian tried this when Can-Am acquired them.
It didn’t work.

Yet another reason Republicans will continue to lose elections and are seen as ignorant and hostile to outsiders.
You guys come off as being anti-environment and openly deny climate change even though it is quite obvious.

Nobody denies the climate changes you hack.
Motorcycles are way too efficient for there to be a market outside of California and I even doubt that. I’m sure BMW has one for Greta.

They have been hell bent on fricking this company up for 15 years now.
They are all pulling from the same pool of morons that destroy themselves.

Wow. I'm sure they'll never point to this when the company fails.

The Earth is 4.3 Billion years old. There were proven wild climate "changes" Billions of years before humans ever walked the Earth. The climate is constantly changing. There's this little thing called axis. Look into it. Your version of "climate change" is nothing more than a ruse to transfer wealth. It would be much more constructive for liberals to just admit that. But they use gullible people like you, and apparently it works.

If going all-electric means silencing these anti-social, noise polluting contraptions then I support it 100%! These machines are an infringement on peoples' right to peace and quiet.

Yeah, because people buy a Street Glide and have Vance and Hines straight pipes installed on it before they'll even ride it home just because they fricking LOVE the sound of a whisper quiet electric motor over the low thunder of a 107 inch V-Twin.
Add H-D to the list of auto manufacturers that have gone full retard.
ETA:
Some Triumph riding f@g downvoted me

I bet there isn't one poster who here who doesnt think the climate is changing. Thankfully the majority of us realize the climate has been changing since day one.
