That is EVERY crooked real dumb or playing dumb sales man. A few grains of truth with a truck load of BS. He doesn't know crap about Zero's options and is wrong about Harley too. Harley says 110 miles "city" not "combined". They also state, not very clearly but it's there, you can plug into a level 2 station but the rate will only be level 1. You won't have the range to hop to level 3 stations so it's pretty worthless.
Nice screen but you have to pay a subscription fee after the first year to use a lot of those features.
I have to go to work or I'd roast him on You Tube. Just pitiful!
I had the same thoughts, along with a few others. However, I thought he did a reasonably decent job of reviewing the SR - considering he seems to be a H-D salesman. To summarize the video, he says that the SR likely has at least the same performance and slightly more range than the recently announced, but not here yet, LiveWire. Then he goes on to say that the Zero is built to a price, however the LiveWire is a premium motorcycle, with premium components (such as a finned battery box) and is well worth the extra $10K USD over the cost of a Zero. If I was a salesman working on commission, I am sure I would say the same thing.
One statement that the reviewer made I found interesting:
He said that the Level 3 fast charging system would likely not be used much by an owner of the LiveWire as only H-D dealers would likely have a Level 3 charging station and most people wouldn't want to visit their dealer just to recharge their Wire. And (also) installing a DC fast charging system in your home would be too expensive for the typical H-D customer.
Most of the comments that he was receiving at the bottom of the video were not too complementary to the LiveWire. So I don't think the "faithful" are going to buy too many of them - which the reviewer seems to agree with, when he says that the bike is not really intended to be purchase by their typical customer.
