Epic !!   Fossil fuels are on their way out !!  Looking forward to seeing this on the road !!  Congrats Harley Davidson with taking this step.

Harley-Davidson unveiled its first electric motorcycle Thursday, and promised it will still sound really cool.
“The sound is a distinct part of the thrill,” chief marketing officer Mark-Hans Richer said in a news release. “Think fighter jet on an aircraft carrier.”

The electric Harley, dubbed Project LiveWire, isn’t for sale yet. The iconic motorcycle manufacturer kicks off a promotional tour next week to give customers a chance to test the bike, which it says will have all the edge of a gas-guzzling hog.

And as might be expected, they’re often taken aback when they learn for the first time that their Internet connections are being used to provide strangers with free WiFi.
