I like the idea of an EV (motorcycle would be rad, in particular), but to me there's another issue with these vehicles in general. If/when you run out of charge, your calling a tow truck. There's no "run and grab a Jerry can" or anything like that. A friend of mine with a Tesla has had this happen a couple times, and that just sucks! I also know someone with an electric motorcycle and his bike quit on him, and that's it. There's nothing you can do because the whole system shuts down and it's just not moving.
Of course plan A is don't run out of electricity, but things happen. You miscalculated or get delayed or whatever and you're stuck.
