What they really should be doing is rebuilding tthe interstates and other major highways to have the electric infrastructure embedded in the roads so that you can constantly recharge your batteries while driving..Untill they do that i cant fathom EV being a viable mode of transportation.
Yes I agree Max.
They are testing that technology now on tracks but the build out is enormous and unproven.
I also agree that the present course of creating these "charging stations" is problematic, especially when competing against the existing infrastructure for ICE vehicles. No the EVs are not yet ready for prime time and for the foreseeable future will be dirtier for our planet than fossil fuels. They are without question the way of the future. But that future is not now. Attempting to force the population into this conversion before numerous issues are resolved is going to result in far larger problems down the line.
Sadly there is a determined effort to force feed us regardless. At least for a couple more years.
The motorcycle manufacturers have been working together to standardize the battery "packs" so they can be relatively quickly exchanged, like one does propane tanks now.
EVs battery systems would be too large for such a system as they are being built now.
One idea that has never managed to get any real footing would be to have all EVs made to a specific "footprint" or standard if you will.
Referring to chassis/battery/charging.
Body design etc still can be creative.
Instead of rebuilding the present roadways (obviously the start would be interstates)
the plan would be to use a raised system (think L Train) running through the median of the existing interstate. The raised platform would have solar panels that helped create the energy and could charge the EV on its journey.
Going to the next level, the actual plans call for the EV to actually enter the "EV Interstate" on
on a "platform" it is linked with. This "platform" would be like a magnetic train. The maintenance would be greatly reduced along with the tire pollution which is a significant contributor.
It would also be capable of great speeds as well as collision avoidance. Pay your way similar to toll roads. Such a system would decrease travel time and improve safety creating a REAL benefit to the population beyond the present day selling point of "Saving the Planet" which isn't happening with these EVs today anyways.
It would also have the added benifit of freeing the existing highways of the extreme overcrowding that exist in many locations now, especially during peak periods such as this holiday weekend. At some point present ICE vehicles can be converted to EVs and continue using the existing roadways. The present plans seem to be designed to limit everyone's mobility and slow them when traveling any real distances.
I'm too old and will never see it anyway.
( A clean-sheet drivetrain design provides claimed ranges of 261 miles city, 176 miles combined, and 134 miles highway.) Great power and performance , a much more well rounded bike than Zero or Harley Davidsons electric. And at a competitive price point ( which is still much more than I would pay 
)
