Hey everyone! Thanks for the kind comments. I'm doing bike reviews on there 'ere channel (from which I'm commenting), and I do loooads of DriveTribey car reviews on Tim Rodie Drives Stuff. Come join in the amateurish nonsense.

@Si Raff yeah 4 hours if you go 71 flat out, and in the UK you wont get away with that. Ridiculous but true. Even the motorways have been changed to 50mph for miles in the west country 😭

Only thing bad was you showed me pork pie eating when I haven't got one. Otherwise top marks. 287 miles in a day though? Thats probably about 4 hours on a petrol bike.

Awesome video. 👌

I know that other presenters exist and there is nothing wrong with this guy but when Drivetribe has the 3 biggest car content presenters 'in the world' im always left thinking, why arent you presenting the content on your own channel??????

😱 A What? Electric? Blasphemy!

Budget Does Not Exceed 73 ¥

Thank you guys for this!

I couldn't tell is this was Foodtrive or Drivetribe. Now I'm hungry.

Nope where the sound at?

A two wheeled Hovaround.

My ex-wife's vibrators made more noise that that thing.

Does this factor in the size of the boombox needed to make all the noise? That's gotta be a big draw on the batteries.

Thats got to be dangerous driving a motorcycle with no noise.

An electric Harley is not worthy of having the Harley name. 85% of what makes a Harley great, is the sound.

this was a joy to watch!

The lack of range and infrastructure really put me off, stickin to gasolina till then

This is great! Just like my road trips, eating all the local "foods" and riding a bit.

How did you managed to make a motorcycle clip this mind numbing boring?!

The Harley and Rivian trucks did well on Long Way Up. They did have to charge by Diesel generators cos of low output household outlets. Also, do yal really not wear masks in crowded spaces in public? Here S.Africa it has become so normal I cringe a bit seeing your citizens walking around unmasked in a town centre 🙈

Nice bike, but there is just one thing missing from that that bike: Noise. A bike always needs to be heard in a tunnel.

So you can make a day trip of it. Its just not convenient, unless you actually have somewhere to be. But if you are tourist, its hardly an imposition at all.

Great segment! Plan ahead, drive to food and charge, then drive home.

That classic Harley sound that OMGs love. A sale winner.

Didn't even know long way up existed until I just watched this. I'm definitely interested in watching it now.

What helmet camera was that? I'm looking for one, and am paralysed by choice.

Can you imagine going to 3 or 4 fuel stations every time you needed petrol or diesel. The charging grid need to improve massively for electric vechicles.

irritaiting tuuat- but that was not enough- salad cream with a pork pie! pantene, you need hair

This electric bike with it's low battery range seems to be more suitable for the foodtribe channel, you will be more eating than driving...

He was doing more eating than riding 😂

Odd not hearing the rumble of an engine

Eat, enjoy food. Don’t take a bite out of something and throw it out. It’s food

Fantastic video, more of this type!!!! Also more on the electric hardly davidson

This is so dowl, dowl dowl, I want to be a lion tamer

Dull an dumb..learned nowt apart from tired pie jokes..yawn

I'm confused... DRIVETRIBE posted a FOODTRIBE video!?! (well there's no car content, and lots of food reviews, so... )

This is still better than new top gear

Nice job and entertaining but every time I wanted to hear how the bike sounded, you cue up the music loud over the electric motor noise.

Holy snowflakes batman

Man the drivetribe community is so amazing it should be illegal

nolocal.info/have/video/fnunbJSLvKmqkZA

Salad cream works with everything, including mint Aero...FACT!

I'd pick the burrito over the Livewire every time.

More contents about motorcycle please!!!!!!!!!!¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

Nice video, thanks. What actually scares me is how silent the bike is. Cars already ignore bikers and it's a dangerous life, but if we remove the sound (one of the only things capable to attract attention), it starts to be really scary. At least for me.

NO, NOT YET, REALLY?....So i got your attention, i'd hope......this electric bike seems fine for sure, what does that bike cost? How did it feel? Real world problems other than charging points? These interest me. Look forward to your feedback.

Loved this video, but what about that soundtrack at the end? It blew my mind! What is it?

Salad cream goes with everything

Also you doing is eating than ridding bike

How was the bike?

Thought this was about the bike not food

What was the total cost of the journey ?

Enjoyed this far more than I thought I was going too. It’s like a budget grand tour special

Is it supposed to be added culture or something the food thing ? , I clicked to hear about Bikes .

There are more dismal industrial estates in Patagonia than in Manchester...typical southerner that thinks anything north of North London is akin to the Outer Hebrides...

Wholly impractical range for anything but short range commuting. You’re not really enjoying a bike ride or scenery, you are more accurately managing the transport of an inadequate battery system from one charge station to another. And unless you have lots of spare time to stay with your bike while it’s charging, or it’s in a dead safe area, then the charging process will end up dominating your day. Long way up barely got 70 miles in the cold too. No thanks. HD, come back to us when you’ve got a bike that has comparable range and refuel time to an ICE bike. Say 300 km and a 10 minute charge. As it is IMHO this bike is an expensive joke for virtue signallers.

Like for the sound guy! :'-D

All those broken chargers does not make me even contemplate an electric bike. I fuel my Indian and ride away and eat when I'm hungry not while I wait 45 minute per refuel NOTE : Range was not mentioned for people outside of UK we have no concept of distance between your recharges. One would think this was left out on purpose for some reason. As range anxiety on electric vehicles is always a problem. Especially bikes that are weight constrained. Strange I would think Harley Davidson didn't want it mentioned. NO Drivetribe would never bow to such outside influence or would they.

287 miles. Oh dear. How long were you actually riding for, how long did you spend trying to find a working charger, and how long did you spend charging?

Eye opener, how can people go electric if your infrastructure is so far behind

I like this guy.

What’s the total distance travelled and what’s the avg distance per charge for this journey?

Great video guys. I would like to know how much regenerative braking supplemented the pre departure range. Constant speed, like a dual carriageway, is the electric vehicles nemesis, virtually no regen. At night the range has to be compromised by lighting too. One last thing, these Electric Hogs are freaking xpnsv.

Boring! It's not a Harley if the engine doesn't roar.

Fitting you went to York since the bike was also made in York.

I rode one of these a few months back and it was a lot of fun. IMO it needs two things tp make it better. 1st, they need to make it available in cruiser style like the softail. 2nd, It needs sound effects. I'm thinking it should sound like the speeder bikes from Star Wars (it almost does anyway), or a TIE fighter! LOL. Some folks have enough difficulty seeing us motorcyclists as it is, making us silent could just make it worse.

I like the concept but I dont like the thought of leaving my motorcycle to charge and them coming back to find it nicked. If thieves want something, there is no equipment thatll stop them from getting it

1- How far would a petrol bike reach for the same time? vs. 2- What were your charging costs? and 3- how much does it cost to buy one? I mean come on so-called "drive tribe"! we all know that electric bikes work, there are literally hundreds of channels showing this for EVs and bikes - you need to be a bit more useful in your videos.

Where's James? Was that motorcycle VLOG audio dubbed?

Ah yes, to become an owner of an EV because there isn't enough anxiety in life already, add on that of always worrying about finding a charging spot before you're left on the side of the road. I can guarantee Ewan McGregor didn't have this worry as he undoubtedly had an off camera support vehicle equipped with a diesel powered portable charging point.

It’s ironic really that harleys best looking bike is electric.

And best riding…

That was great. Thanks! More rides and pork pies!

Who wants an electric Harley ffs..

What a beautiful bike! (And sooo quiet!) I hope all the bikers in my area buy one in the next ten years! 👍🇬🇧

The guy in the striped shirt at the pub and the sound guy on the crew both look like 50 year old preteens

looks so bad when a fat middle aged guy tries to look young. less heinz would be better. that gut....

Cool thanks

How far can you drive a sportster?

6 ads and 3 commercial breaks in an 11 minute film. Mostly a film of a mouth breather stuffing his face with meat pies. Also about 20 seconds total of footage of the bike. 👎

That poor pork pie didn’t see that coming...

Electric and Harley Davidson said no one ever in one sentence...

Do you require any amendments to your licenses

Why not plug into the pub? Pubs should give free charges.

literally the bike no Harley rider would ever want, less popular than their attempt at water cooling even

That was a real anticlimax. Just as you head off at the start on the bike, the music starts- the bike has zero soul. I ride a Sportster in crazy city traffic in Phnom Penh, but with the music of a proper engine. Add on the dearth of charging stations, and the wait time, I just can’t see this taking off just yet. For me electric vehicles need interchangeable batteries that are as easy as 123 to pull up, change, ride off. The charging station recharges empty batteries for the next customer, etc. Still, making your own music, meh.. :)

You'd definitely want to keep your finger ready on the horn whenever you're in traffic. General traffic is bad enough at noticing noisy motorcycles let alone silent ones.

Eating British cuisine with 99% carb, talking to the crew on camera, this guy is a true disciple of James May

This video was a waste of time. I'm not subscribed to food tribe for a reason.

No wonder the English are always unhappy if this is the food they have there.

A very expensive commuter vehicle. I guess if I won the lottery...

Now for something completely different... Yet very familiar. This reminds me of Clarkson's drive across the south of England to beat the sunrise. I welcome this quite a lot.

Big Clarkson vibes from this guy. Well done!

But where is the oil going to leak from?

That's never going to sell to Harley owners - they want/need the noise.

really like this new presenter

Is there no pandemic in the UK anymore? Not seeing any masks.

I'm not remotely interested in buying an electric bike untill recharging becomes as quick as filling up with petrol.

Food menu is better than the bike. May be this episode should be in Foodtribe. Very enjoyable to watch, thank you.

...Or I could hop on my GSA and ride 287 miles non-stop and still have 100-150 miles left in the tank.

But you'd still have a GS ;)

Just get over the charging already. You are also charging your phone even multiple times per day. You can charge this bike nicely at home, have some breaks on the way, just relax.

How was the bike?

Thats the First Harley since the first series that I Like. I mean the real old ones and this. The others are for fat old bald Guys. With leather Vests.

Electric bikes really I will never never Be Into that absolutely wrong on so many levels never 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

HAAAAH HAAAAAAH ...
