    Nifty looking. Maybe we’ll start to see global offerings from Honda in the future

    It does look kinda big and chunky though, which I guess is unsurprising given the space needs for EV guts

        An electric motorcycle with 100 miles of range and not enough power to do highway speeds is not a touring bike. Imagine a Harley Sportster with the power of a 150cc scooter but each refill takes well over an hour. At least it doesn’t vibrate like a Sportster.

        Until the tech and the prices get better these will not sell well.
