This article will teach you how electric motorcycles work and how they differ from both gasoline motorcycles and e-bikes. It will also help you decide if one is right for you and where to buy one.
How Motorcycles Work – The Basics
Electric motorcycles use their batteries to power an internal electric motor. Once you turn on your vehicle, the power from the batteries goes to the motor and you can ride normally again.
How you check your battery percentage varies slightly by manufacturer. But in many cases, you can see how much charge you have left by going to the menu on your electric motorcycle. Here you should also see how many miles or kilometers the vehicle expects that charge to last.
When an electric motorcycle runs out of power, it’s not like an e-bike where you can pedal with your feet. It’s more like a car; you have to charge your motorcycle before you can use it again.
