How how far can an electric motorcycle actually go? That depends on how the bike is tested, how fast you're riding and how much work you're asking the battery to do. We all know the game by now: big range number on the brochure, smaller number once you hand over your hard-earned cash and start riding the thing. The reason it keeps happening comes down to how electric two-wheelers are tested, and the maths gets pretty ugly once you leave the gentle, controlled world of the tes

Electric motorcycles aren’t a different world. From the outside they can look like something new, maybe even separate from traditional bikes, but that feeling disappears pretty quickly once you’re on one. It’s still riding. Same roads, same instincts. You’re just getting there in a different way. That difference is where things start to open up. The space is already splitting into different types of bikes. Just like petrol, it’s not one category anymore. For a look at what's

The electric motorcycle world is changing fast, and regenerative braking is right at the centre of it. What started as a way to claw back a bit of range has become something far more important: a core part of throttle feel and bike control. It’s no longer about whether a bike has regen—it’s whether it’s been set up properly.

Right then, torque, horsepower, kW… the usual spec sheet mess. It sounds tough, but we’ll keep it simple, and try to make the age-old argument between torque and horsepower a bit clearer, or maybe even irrelevant.

It’s Sunday. You’re out riding. You glance down at the dash, and it's there. That orange warning light. You're low on fuel...again. Doesn’t matter what you ride, we’ve all been here before. Fuel runs out. So does charge. It's no big deal. The problem is we treat it like one. That’s where the dreaded 'range anxiety' comes in, and why it’s been such a sticking point for electric motorbikes and EVs in general.
