The Top Three Electric Motorcycles For 2017

Introduction

Electric motorbikes are getting more and more popular, especially with the Harley-Davidson LiveWire. Electric motorcycles have been around for a long time, but as gas prices continue to rise and people search for ways to reduce their carbon footprint, it’s no wonder that these vehicles are becoming more popular than ever before. We’ve compiled a list of some of the best electric motorcycles on the market today so you can decide which one suits your needs best!

Zero SR

The Zero SR is the most powerful, fastest and most expensive of the three bikes. It has a range of 150 miles, can go from 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds and tops out at 143 mph (230 km/h).

The Zero SR’s price tag is $17k more than its stablemate, but if you’re looking for something that will leave your friends in the dust when you ride by them on the freeway then this might be worth it.

Zero S ZF14.4

The Zero S ZF14.4 is a bike with a top speed of over 120 mph and a range of around 80 miles. It’s available in two colors, red and black.

Harley-Davidson LiveWire

This is a production electric motorcycle from Harley-Davidson. The LiveWire is the first production model from America’s oldest motorcycle manufacturer, but it’s not just any ol’ electric bike–this thing was developed by the same people who brought us the Tesla Model S and Model X. If you’re looking for something that’s both fast and fun to ride, this might be your new favorite toy!

The LiveWire isn’t just another electric motorcycle either; it has some pretty impressive specs: 0-60mph in 3 seconds flat (according to Harley), top speed of 130mph, range per charge at 80 miles with an optional extended battery pack available if you want more juice before heading home again or stopping at your local charging station along the way on long rides across town or out into nature where there aren’t many outlets available yet…

Performance and electric motorbikes

There are a lot of differences between the performance and electric motorbikes. The Zero SR is the fastest, with a top speed of 140 mph (225 km/h). The Zero S ZF14.4 is the most powerful with 134 ft-lb (180 Nm) of torque and horsepower at 97 hp. It has an electronic powertrain control unit (EPCU) that continuously monitors everything from battery health to temperature sensors in real time, providing feedback on your bike’s performance status as well as diagnostic information in case something goes wrong with the bike or its components.

The Harley-Davidson LiveWire has a maximum range of 100 miles (160 km), which makes it one of only two production electric motorcycles currently available on sale today that can travel more than 80 miles per charge without needing any charging station infrastructure at all – no matter where you’re riding!

Conclusion

If you’re looking for a performance bike, then the Zero SR may be your best bet. It has an impressive top speed of 140 mph and can go from 0-60 in just 2.3 seconds! This bike also comes with plenty of features including bluetooth connectivity, ABS brakes and LED lights that provide excellent visibility at night time riders who want something different than their standard gas powered motorcycles.
