It's pure awesome.

It is one for sure way to set aside the haters that HD can't keep up with tech. They do without violating the core. Granted their core won't touch this, but it is a great way to get in the trend setter types.

There's not much for negatives in my mind.

I like it. Nice styling better than a 500/750/883.

So far only four cities have been announced for their demo tour: http://project.harley-davidson.com/ (Click on the Experience Tour). If it comes to Denver, I'll request a ride.

Fuck yes! They're coming to Philly. Where do I sign up?

It will be my first ride on an electric, and it's a HD with decent riding position. I have to wonder how much efficiency they're wasting by going for a "unique" sound.

Its going to sound pretty cool.

They really aren't keeping up with tech. Electric is by no means new or revolutionary now. They aren't setting trends, they are following them. Harley is going after hipsters.

Styling looks almost Buell-ish.
No brrraaaaappppp sound.
Interested to see what the range is and the time to recharge.

It will succeed because HD will throw tons of money at it to make it work.

I'll stick to internal combustion for now.
I don't ride to be "green", I ride for enjoyment.

I saw it and thought "wow" finally a Harley with an engine I like..."
