How many of those 110 miles are balls-to-the-wall flat out?
Most guys I know would be out of juice well before lunch.
Fake sound too?

If it sells more bikes, great. The more people ride, the safer the roads will get for all of us. It’s not for me, but I commute 28 miles a day on my bike. The range is plenty. I imagine the torque is a lot of fun too.
It will appeal more to daily riders and not so much to the weekend or monthly riders, or those who have to dress like a pirate.

A high performance dirt bike that is quiet, very cool.

I’ll agree that dirt bike applications are a whole nother issue, with all that torque might even out-perform gasoline dirt bikes. But even a 200 - 300 mile range on a electric street bike would keep ya on a short leash given the long recharge times.

A 200 mile range can get a lot of people to work without a recharge for two weeks.

Notice that the practicality of all things motorcycle stays completely unrecognized by the media?
Ever wonder why?
Because they ain’t all that practical?
Says me who didn’t own a car until my forties.

There's no point in trying to sell a practical motorcycle because there is no practical reason to own a motorcycle. It's purely an emotional decision. Do you need a 1700 cc V-Twin motor to ride to work? Or a 1400 cc race bike with lights that will tickle if not surpass 200 mph? Of course not but if we were looking for sensible we'd all be driving Honda Civics. How boring would that be? I hope this new Harley tempts some young people to try a motorcycle and live a little.
