MILWAUKEE, WI (Wisconsin Radio Network-WSAU) — A detour for Harley’s new electric motorcycle. The Milwaukee-based company announcing that it has found an issue during final quality checks, and has canceled plans to deliver the motorcycles.
“We recently discovered a non-standard condition during a final quality check. We stopped production and deliveries and began additional testing and analysis, which is progressing well… We are in close contact with our LiveWire dealers and customers and have assured them they can continue to ride LiveWire motorcycles. As usual, we’re keeping high quality as our top priority,” read a statement from the manufacturer.
Harley has not been specific about what the problem is, and they haven’t said when production will resume.
The Livewire bike comes with a price tag just under $30,000. It’s part of Harley’s strategy to attract younger riders.
