Meet the Energica Experia, a 'green tourer' designed to cover impressive distances.

Like their four-wheeled cousins, motorcycles are increasingly available in electric versions. And when it comes to battery powered rides, options like Harley-Davidson’s LiveWire or an offering from Zero might come to mind. Another key player is Energica, out of Modena, Italy.

Built as a brand new machine from the ground up, the new Experia is a so-called green tourer for the modern rider. Unlike any other electric motorcycle, it can travel more than 100 miles at highway speeds without needing to stop for a charge. Also, unlike the competition, the Experia offers standard onboard charging capacity for Level 1, Level 2, and DC Fast charging.

That said, the Experia, as an adventure touring bike, plays to its strengths with that extra weight, because it shouldn’t be expected to handle nearly as well as the sport-oriented LiveWire. With around 100 horsepower and 85 lb-ft of torque it probably won’t have the same level of straight-line acceleration, solely by dint of the Experia’s extra weight.

Yea right. B.S.

Just not too far from a charging station...or you could have a trailer with a generator. Or a bunch of solar panels on that trailer. EV is not the answer

Umm, no.
