Not sure if you got the point of his statement. He is saying he didn't want to just pick American manufacturing to virtue signal to the flag waving crowd.... he is saying he wanted to use American manufacturing for what it is good for, keeping in mind that the tooling and know-how is no longer here. And that's not something that is easily fixed. We are talking about 150 years of good American steel that was boxed up and shipped to China. We are talking about 100 years of solid American machine tools that were shipped to China. We are talking about industrial districts filled with buildings purpose-built for manufacturing with cranes and cargo bays and train tracks rezoned as residential and converted into condos. And we are talking about a gap of over 40 years where the know-how has been allowed to get old and die out. It will take a whole heck of alot more than some flag waving and wishful thinking to rebuild what NeoLiberalism destroyed in this country.

Their design team consists of Erik Buell and other veteran Buell and Harley engineers. They are implementing a lot of innovative designs to bring down manufacturing cost and weight to keep it below $13,000 and 400lbs despite having a larger 10kWh battery; including a magnesium housing, a structural battery pack, lights integrated directly into the frame, and a inhub axial-flux motor. It has more storage capacity than a typical scooter but the low end acceleration of a 600-750cc sport bike.

Smaller motorcycles used to be far more common in the US. 125-250cc are perfectly acceptable for riding around town and brief stints on the highway. After the 80's larger sport bikes and big Harley Cruisers took off and are more for performance/show or long touring on highways than real daily use. I see so many old Harley riders tip their motorcycles in the parking lot and need a 2nd person just to get it back up. No young rider is going to be able to throw $20,000+ on 400lb+ motorcycle, only old Boomers, so Harley's customers are literally dying off. Motorcycle sales have been on decline in US partly because younger riders aren't learning to ride, but a lot of those would be riders have e-bikes. Electric motorcycles should be a good transition for e-bike owners needing more speed when zipping around town, but so many electric motorcycle companies and OEMs are trying to build electric motorcycles to compete with larger sport bikes, naked bikes, and dual-sport or offroad bikes. That is a terrible idea because the range and top speed of electric bikes is terrible and they are too heavy and expensive to compete with better ICE bikes in that category. Building smaller, urban commuting, electric motorcycles that appeal to e-bike riders makes way more sense. In the low end they can accelerate better than a sport bike, but have the convience, low maintenance, and approachability of a small scooter. Having swappable batteries and good storage options make them great daily riders when the weather is nice.

That 120 mile range is on the motorcycle test standard which is no where near equivalent to the testing standards for automobiles. So looking them up, the Scrambler with on board charging and 5.7 kWh usable (largest battery) cost about $9400 and real world range at 55mph is just 34.6 miles claimed - as in they state that at 55 miles per hour you get 34 miles of range. At 70 you get 23. That 120 miles of range, at 22mph.
