I think H-D's plan is for their LiveWire customers to go from H-D dealership to H-D dealership, looking for a DC charging station.   ::)

Assuming there's a dealership every... 50 miles apart or whatever the highway range ends up being on that thing *IF* it actually comes out.

Don't forget that "electrify america" teamed up with Wal-Mart to install non-propriotory  dc chargers at over 600 Wal-Mart's by end of 2019. There are already 2 within 50 miles from me, and 3 within 100 miles.

All of the press releases I was able to find indicate it would be 100 walmarts by EOY2019.  Perhaps 6 charger units per walmart?

They will also have level two AC charging that our Zeros can use.

But no Telsa SuperChargers?

There is no level 2 chargers at the ones near me. All dc from 50kw to 350kw.

They already have over 100 sites constructed and each site has an average of 4.4 chargers.
A direct quote from electrify america said.
"The network says it “plans to install or have under construction 484 charging station sites with more than 2,000 ultra-fast chargers by July 1” of this year. "

I wonder how many hydrogen fueling stations can be funded with the same amount of time and money?   ::)

At the Wal*Marts, the level two should be in by the end of the year.

Click here.

"Alongside the fast chargers, the company will install standard Level 2, 240-volt chargers for electric cars and plug-in hybrids that don't have DC fast-charge capability."

Electrify America will be game changer for HD if the Live Wire can charge fast. There is another thread observing that Zero may be missing the boat by sticking with level 2. Now that the EA dc only fast stations are popping up all around, I’m starting to agree.

Maybe, maybe not. The distance between Electrify America stations, which I quoted somewhere else on the forum, will make it difficult for any bike that gets less than something like 120 miles to travel the highway charging corridors.
