Harley-Davidson launched its first electric motorcycle, the LiveWire, last year, but had production issues.
The new bike is designed for "motorcycle enthusiasts, commuters and first-timers," according to a statement. It will feature an electric-assist, so when you pedal the electric motor, a battery will give you some extra power to move along.
See a video unveiling the new bike below. Sign up for updates on the new ride here.
