Earlier this week we shared the unveiling of the LiveWire Launch Edition S2 Del Mar, a special limited-run iteration of the upcoming second production electric motorcycle coming from Harley-Davidson spinoff EV label LiveWire.

The first bike built on LiveWire’s S2 Arrow architecture, the Launch Edition will retail for $17,699, and S2 Del Mar models are expected to follow with a target MSRP of $15,000.

Morgan Gales of Cycle Volta sibling titles MotorcycleCruiser.com and CycleWorld.com was at the Launch Edition’s official unveiling this week and got a closer look at the flat-track-inspired EV for us.
