What is an Electric Motorcycle?

More people are turning to electric vehicles as a green way to travel. But what is an Electric motorcycle and how does it differ from a conventional motorcycle? The answer lies in the technology behind them. One type is known as a plug-in electric motorcycle, while the other type is known as an electric scooter. A typical electric motorcycle has a step-through frame and a rechargeable battery to power its motors.

The electric motorcycle is relatively silent when compared to a conventional motorcycle, which is a good thing. Although they're quieter than gas-powered motorcycles, there's still a certain amount of noise, especially on long distances. Nonetheless, these motorbikes do not sound like up-specced push bikes. In addition, they can handle as well as a conventional motorcycle and can be ridden on public roads.

The electric motorcycle boasts a zero-maintenance design that makes it a breeze to maintain.
