We’ve been watching and waiting for the Bonnell 805 RX to drop, and now it’s finally here with a simple idea: keep the bike midweight, but give it the punch of something much bigger.
The Met has expanded its fleet of electric two-wheelers, showing that sometimes the best bike for catching a criminal is the same bike they’re trying to escape on.
Range, charging, speed and long-distance riding have all been sticking points for electric motorcycles. Evoke reckons it can tackle all four with one very large power cruiser.
We've already spent time with the EVO, so this isn't another first look at Avenrà's electric sportsbike. This time, we're finding out what happens when the small manufacturer turns the wick up on performance.
Kawasaki seems confident enough in its electric Ninja to carry it into another model year. But is that confidence, or is Kawasaki simply making sure it can say it has an electric motorcycle?
America has finally caught up with Europe, with LiveWire slashing the price of the ONE by another $2,500.
The U.S. price is now down to $13,999, five months after UK and European riders saw their own major price cuts. Same bike, significantly less money.
