"H-D" Livewire One?

No H-D just the Livewire 1.
Which is the same or slightly worse bike at a more market price.

That is my understanding, too. I was going to call it the H-D LiveWire One, but if I recall correctly, H-D spun the LiveWire off into a separate company owned by both H-D and other investors. They now refer to their electric models as LiveWires - apparently not wanting the V-twin faithful to become too confused about H-D actually building electric motorcycles and E-bikes and making them worry that the Big Twin might be replaced someday with a quiet motorcycle.  ;)

This is an article by Jen Dunstan.  It does not really explain the Revzilla connection besides it is published at their web address.  She states, " As an Alta Motors MX and EX owner, I’ve got several years of experience doing the electric slide in the dirt, but a dedicated street e-motorcycle was a new adventure for me."  that does not state if she still owns one or two of those Alta bikes currently.  Best as I can tell she got the use of this livewire one bike for a month but the details of how one arranges for this is not explained.  As usual there is significant content in the comment section.

You did call it such in the title of the thread, which I was referring to.

I guess that goes to prove that I don't always read my thread titles.  :-[

Excuse the thread dredge but... still relevant IMO

This is a good report of a good bike for those purposes. I especially can 'relate' to the charging comments the rider made. When I charge overnight at home, of course Level 1, no issues at all. On the road using commercial charges - some error message or other is the rule not the exception. Once I (quickly) got used to that, not really a problem.
