Electric Motorcycles
Electric motorcycles are on the rise. Performance models can offer unheard-of torque and acceleration, while commuter specials open the door to emissions-free, low-maintenance transport with fuel costs so low they're almost negligible.

Škoda is a well-known carmaker, but many may be unaware of the brand’s two-wheeled roots. The 130-year-old Czech company started out as a bicycle and motorcycle maker – and it looks like it might just get back to that. -
Halfway between an ebike and a dirtbike, the Stealth B-52 stunned us with its massive performance and fun factor ten years ago. Now, a new B-52R nearly doubles the power and torque, creating a pedal-assist ebike capable of highway speeds. -
Canadian electric motorcycle brand Damon has been taking a beating on the stock ticker lately, with its shares plummeting to US$0.0075. That could be a sign of the end of Damon before getting even a single electric bike off the production line. -
Australia is home to many cool things, among which is a bright new start-up called On Powersports – a bikemaker that specializes in e-motocrossers, e-enduros, and e-supermotos, and if value is what you’re after, the OZY 30x fits the bill perfectly. -
You either love or hate Verge's hubless donut-shaped rear wheel. But what if most of the future electric motos were to sport the same tech? Well, that may soon turn out to be true, with Verge commercializing its electric tech for industry-wide use. -
Royal Enfield is one of those rare brands that naturally lends itself to one-off custom builds. Case in point: the "Project Delta," a classic custom motorcycle that draws inspiration from the motorcycle culture of the 40s and 50s. -
Verge Motorcycles has broken and created a new Guinness World Record by riding its Verge TS Pro electric bike the farthest on a single charge. The record-breaking 193-mile (311-km) journey was accomplished in London on March 22. -
Dirt Freak… with a name like that, you ought to either produce some solid, purpose-built off-road motorcycles… or an inexpensive vacuum cleaner. Happily it’s the former, in the shape of an electric moto from Japan dubbed the GE-N3. -
Austin-based Bonnell is a new-ish electric two-wheeler brand with a foundation in all-terrain racing. It's been making electric mountain bikes for a bit, and now wants to muscle in on dirt bike territory with two models slated for later this year. -
The YongLE Risheng CG is a wind/solar motorcycle that sports a roof covered in 250W solar panels to which a wind turbine is mounted. It's not the most aesthetic design we've seen on a motorcycle, but hey, it works... apparently. -
Remember Verge? Yes, the same brand that took it upon itself to almost reinvent the way motorcycles look. Well, the folks at Verge took its TS Pro moto on a rather ambitious trip – a 850-mile trip from Monaco to Madrid competed in 24 hours. -
When you’re named like a bear, you better swing like one too. This German electric motocrosser certainly looks to take on its gas-powered foes – torque, lightweight, nimble – all attributes that might make it the perfect MX bike to swing a leg over.
