The production LiveWire was Harley-Davidson's first electric motorcycle for sale, developed from the 2014 Project LiveWire prototype. A water-jacketed Revelation motor and 15.5 kWh battery give twist-and-go acceleration (0-60 mph in about 3 seconds) with no clutch or gears, and it supports both home AC charging and DC fast charging. Fully adjustable Showa suspension, radial four-piston front brakes and standard ABS and traction control make it a sporty naked roadster rather than a cruiser. For 2021 it carried on as the LiveWire ONE under the new LiveWire brand.
