I’d look into a bigger battery, maybe a power controller tweak, and better tires.

It’s disappointing because the potential was there, a little more range and speed, and it could’ve been a real contender.

A true commuter bike should handle daily rides without constant charging.

That depends on which Kawasaki electric motorcycle you mean, some are city-focused with limited range, while others aim for more power. Are you asking about the Z e-1 or the Ninja e-1?

I was excited about it at first, but the range and speed are a dealbreaker, my 25-mile commute might work at 55 mph, but charging all day at work isn’t an option. It feels more it is suited for short city rides than highway commutes.

The Ninja e-1 and Z e-1 seem great for short commutes, but the speed and range are pretty limiting

Yeah, 65 mph feels pretty limiting for highway use, it seems more like a city commuter than a true all-rounder.

How’s the throttle response? does it feel smooth, or it take some getting used to?

With just 8 miles a day, charging once or twice a week should work fine for you..

Since I couldn't find and E1, I settled for a 400. I've heard it's clutchless, which may be really practical for city commuting, but I'm not sure how it handles. It really depends on anyone's preference for simplicity of usage or the full clutch-and-shifting experience. What do y'all think?
