It's surreal, honestly. The lack of noise and vibration makes it feel like I'm in some kind of future spacecraft. I love the vibes and sound of an ICE as much as anyone, but riding an electric motorcycle is a completely different experience.
 
I know exactly what you mean! The first time I rode a LiveWire, it felt like my brain had to reprogram itself, no clutch, no gears, just pure acceleration. It’s crazy how much torque you get instantly compared to an ICE bike. I still love the sound of a V-twin, but I have to admit, EV motorcycles have their own unique excitement. Do you feel like you ride differently because of the silence?
 
Yeah the silence makes me more aware of my surroundings and riding style, it’s a smoother, more focused experience than with an ICE bike.
