Why did it fail?
>>
these are actualy pretty nice brose motor automatic transmission gates carbon belt

Having the name "Harley Davidson" on anything is repellent to anyone under 60 and rightly or wrongly is synonymous with a lack of quality. Should have come up with a new brand name.

It was a $6,000 Chinese ebike with Harley Davidson printed on it.

SIX
THOUSAND
DOLLARS

I bought a nice low mileage used Mercedes sedan at an estate sale for less than that...

love how their attempt at reaching the Youths™ manages to be the most boomerish machine possible

>make a harley davidson
>don't get any design clues from the harley bikes
even livewire kinda has that harley feel despite looking modern, this is just bicycle that says "harley-davidson" on it and costs a gorillion dollars

Its beautiful.....but nothing can forgive their crime of enabling loud faggots for decades.
>>
>>2067892
this is more "cafe racer, but low seat" than an electric hogg

they literally should have just made an electric harley. it's the perfect chassis for it. the gas version already weighs ten gorillion tons, just make it out of aluminum instead of steel and replace the motor with an equivalent weight of batteries and motor. it would probably end up lighter tbqh

wrong

>>2067891
its probably for 40 year olds, not necessarily the youths
i suspect that they know that the youths opinion of them out of their hands, either its over or some will buy harleys without extra ads

>40 year olds want harleys and boomer bikes
I remember being in high school. Oh who am I kidding, I barely do. But I do remember how I couldn't differentiate between a 20 year old and a 50 year old when I was a kid.

I'm in my 30s and want an actual H-D motorcycle, just because I think it'd be fun to live the crankin' my hawg memes, but it'd be bike #3 in a 3 bike garage (after a dualsport and ADV) and I sure as hell wouldn't buy a fucking bicycle from them.

something about harley davidson making a bicycle reeks of typical american doing shit wrong on purpose to "prove" it will never work
>>
>>2068725
The only thing they did wrong was make it electric. Get rid of the battery and bottom bracket motor and you have a pretty solid fat bike
