Harley is in by no means anywhere close to leading the edge on battery development. You would just have to be fooling yourself to even consider it. Hell they don't have anything to even do with it, that would be all contracted out to another company. Making batteries is a dirty dirty business.

Styling looks almost Buell-ish.
No brrraaaaappppp sound.
Interested to see what the range is and the time to recharge.

It will succeed because HD will throw tons of money at it to make it work.

I'll stick to internal combustion for now.
I don't ride to be "green", I ride for enjoyment.

No more revving at stops... what will they come up with next? Who wants to bet that HD will install a clutch AFTER the bevel gear just so clods can play "jet-fighter?"
