Honda Goes Electric

The Lowdown Show - By ADVrider

For more than a decade, small, independent manufacturers have tantalized us with promises of mass electric motorcycle production. We are constantly told of new technologies that will revolutionize the battery bike scene, and yet this corner of the motorcycle world has been filled with bankruptcies, not success stories. Now Honda is about to launch their first full-sized electric motorcycle, early in 2026. ADVrider managing editor Zac Kurylyk says the specs aren't exactly in line with what consumers want, but that doesn't matter, since consumer demand isn't what's driving this market in the first place—it's government regulations.
