Yes, I've occasionally looked at the situation regarding electric motorcycles, but at the moment the cost and limited range is a real drawback
Even though I mostly ride for pleasure, the current (sorry!) state of the art gives around 100 miles of riding but then an hour recharging to get back.
This isn't great if I want to go surfing in Croyde which is 190 miles from Portsmouth and about 5 1/2 hours on the twisty route as it would add at least an hour to my journey time.
When they can make an electric bike with a 200 miles range, ie equivalent to many road bikes and bring the price down to something affordable to the average rider, I think things will definitely improve.
