Harley-Davidson has just unveiled its first ever electric motorcycle under the name Project Livewire. While the motorcycle is not yet being mass produced, Harley will be using it to get insights into what customers expect from an electric bike from the American manufacturer. There are also simulators as also customer trials for this new electric motorcycle in the US. While customers in India right now will not be part of the program, what they can is take a look at the images of this gorgeous motorcycle below.
