1934-ariel-4f-square-four-1280x780-1

1934 Ariel 4F Square Four, also known as the Squariel, this innovative model remains unique in motorcycle history, with its unique four-cylinder block and twin geared crankshafts with 180-degree phased pistons. Estimated between $25,000 and $35,000.

The quest to get U.S. motorcycle maker Harley-Davidson back on track took an unusual but not entirely unexpected turn on Monday with the reveal that the company’s new brand of electric motorcycles, LiveWire, will go public with a PSPC deal. in a close future. .

No specific date for a public offering has been given and the deal is subject to the approval of the shareholders of the SPAC company, but a press release said that LiveWire, which was recently created by Harley-Davidson as than its own brand, will be associated with sustainability. Specialized acquisition company AEA-Bridges Impact Corporation (aka ABIC) for listing as LVW on the New York Stock Exchange. ABIC is listed under the stock symbol IMPX.

Additionally, Taiwan-based KYMCO is also part of the deal. KYMCO manufactures a wide range of scooters, light motorcycles, ATVs and other motorized devices and sells them in countries all over the world, including in the USA, where they are best known for their scooters. KYMCO’s US headquarters are located in South Carolina.

According to the press release, “LiveWire’s funding will consist of $ 400 million in cash from ABIC held in trust, a $ 100 million investment from Harley-Davidson and a $ 100 million investment from KYMCO, via a PIPE (private investment in public capital). ” When public, “Harley-Davidson will retain an approximate 74% stake in the company, ABIC shareholders will own approximately 17%, and the founders of ABIC and KYMCO will each own approximately 4%.”

If closed, the deal could give LiveWire an “enterprise value of approximately $ 1.77 billion and net worth of approximately $ 2.3 billion at closing,” the statement said. press published Monday morning. Harley-Davidson had a market cap of $ 6 billion at midday Monday.

“Today’s announcement is a historic milestone with LiveWire on its way to becoming the first publicly traded electric motorcycle company in the United States. the electrification of sport, â€Harley-Davidson CEO Jochen Zeitz said in the press release. “This transaction will give LiveWire the freedom to fund new product development and accelerate its time-to-market model. LiveWire will be able to operate as an agile and innovative public enterprise while benefiting from the large-scale manufacturing and distribution capabilities of its strategic partners, Harley-Davidson and KYMCO. “

To analyse

We put a lot of emphasis on new CEO Jochen Zeitz, who was on Harley’s board of directors before becoming CEO in March 2020 – just at the start of the pandemic. Harley-Davidson suffered from consecutive quarters of falling profits, falling sales and losing market share. An aging but dedicated core demographics, expensive products that were viewed by many throughout the motorcycle community as high quality but technologically outdated, and a general decline in the number of people appearing interested in motorcycles – of any brand or name. type – had some people foresee a possible end of Harley-Davidson, or the loss of its independence in a possible sale.

More than 50 years ago, the iconic motorcycle maker found itself in the hands of leisure equipment maker AMF, where it almost went bankrupt before a last-minute takeover by company executives. The company reinvented and refined key parts of its motorcycles and the brand went public (HOG) in 1986. From there, continuous efforts at modernization and product refinement led Harley-Davidson to one of the most big comebacks in American business history, but the past few years haven’t been nice, despite HD making some of the excellent motorcycles this author has reviewed.

However, Zeitz, from Germany, had managed to bring sportswear maker Puma back from the brink before joining Harley’s board of directors, and it was hoped he could work some of the same magic on it. Milwaukee. After taking the reins, Zeitz continued former CEO Matt Levatich’s efforts to bring a controversial new motorcycle to fruition but at the right time earlier this year, and the Pan America adventure bike was a hit for the business (disclosure: I’m currently reviewing Pan America for Forbes.com).

This launch followed another controversial step for Harley under Levatich: the debut of the fully electric motorcycle LiveWire in 2019. Perhaps as a forerunner of the LiveWire plan, at the end of 2020, Harley-Davidson announced that its electric bikes newly announced would be created. as its own brand, Serial 1, a name taken from the first Harley motorcycle produced in 1903.

Harley-Davidson was the first (and perhaps the most unlikely) major bicycle maker to launch a full-size, full-horsepower electric motorcycle in the industry – and still is, as of this writing. . However, they have stiff competition from Zero Motors, which started as a manufacturer of clean leaf electric motorcycles over 15 years ago and produces a wide range of popular electric motorcycles, all of which are cheaper than the model. LiveWire, which is now known as LiveWire One under the LiveWire brand.

While going public with a SPAC is surprising, the inclusion of Taiwan-based scooter maker KYMCO in the deal may be more so – but it also makes sense. Although relatively unknown in the United States, KYMCO is a heavyweight outside of America, selling hundreds of thousands of machines – many of which are quite sophisticated – across Europe and Asia. The pairing with KYMCO gives LiveWire (and by extension Harley-Davidson) an easier entry into Eurasian markets with what can be a simple rebranding of KYMCO products as LiveWire machines, while also putting the huge ones KYMCO’s R&D and production capabilities for new products – especially all -electric machines – at your fingertips.

Electric scooters are already commonplace and are gaining popularity in many cities around the world. While breaking through with a full-size electric motorcycle is a tall order due to the much higher expectations of bikers, putting together competent scooters – especially electric models – is a much easier fruit to hang on to. The prices are much lower and buyers don’t expect supercar performance. Most of the time, they need their machines to be reliable, affordable and convenient in terms of transporting cyclists through major cities, where the electric charging infrastructure – or battery exchange technology – is already largely in place. With LiveWire essentially separated from the Harley-Davidson branding, the Motor Company could be in the mix in a massive global market for electric motorcycles and scooters far beyond what they could have hoped for in terms of their large. legacy gasoline-powered machines, which will continue to be popular in the United States

The LiveWire split had sparked discussions that Harley-Davidson would do the same with Pan America motorcycles, but they may tie into the mothership a bit more than the LiveWire and Serial 1 platforms. Harley-Davidson shares rose sharply in LiveWire news, but have since returned most of those gains.

The electric motorcycle company ALYI operates alongside

Dallas, Texas, December 13, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTC Pink: ALYI) today introduced the Harley-Davidson announcement that it will go public with its LiveWire electric motorcycle division through a SPAC merger with AEA-Bridges Impact Corp at a pro forma enterprise value of $ 1.77 billion.

“LiveWire plans to redefine motorcycles as the industry leader in fully electric motorcycles, with a focus on the urban market and beyond,†the company said in a statement.

LiveWire says it will have two strategic partners, Harley-Davidson and Taiwanese powersports company KYMCO.

“At the risk of sounding shameless, ALYI implemented what now appears to be the Harley-Davidson electric motorcycle business plan ahead of Harley-Davidson,†said Internet Systems CEO Dr. Randell Torno. “We married Western design with Asian manufacturing to develop electric motorcycles for the emerging urban market while Harley-Davidson was still developing electric motorcycles at SUV prices. Now Harley-Davidson believes their urban and beyond goal with their partner KYMCO is a $ 1.7 billion idea. Well, I tend to agree with them. ALYI just got the idea first. Perhaps with a global brand like Harley-Davidson pursuing an electric motorcycle strategy parallel to our own, ALYI’s electric motorcycle business will benefit from the implicit validation of our electric motorcycle strategy.

ALYI has started shipping electric motorcycles made in China to enter into service in the motorcycle taxi market in East Africa.

ALYI partnered with MODUS in 2019, a Texas-based engineering company, and to develop an electric motorcycle for ALYI based on the BMW R71 motorcycle design of the 1930s.

ALYI recognized early on the market’s potential to marry Western design with Asian manufacturing.

In addition to rolling out electric motorcycles in Africa, ALYI has also started supplying electric three-wheeled vehicles in Africa for the taxi and delivery markets as another component of ALYI’s global EV ecosystem solution. .

ALYI’s EV ecosystem strategy firstly focuses its efforts on developing solutions for the East African market where per capita transport is low and where EV solutions have the potential to be a first transport solution on the market rather than replacing an existing solution.

EV solutions robust enough to support the East African environment are also likely to be viable solutions anywhere else in the world, and ALYI plans to expand globally.

ALYI designed its EV Ecosystem solution to include democratized participation. ALYI has partnered with Revolt Token (RVLT) to fund the growth of ALYI by offering participation in the EV ecosystem through the sale of Revolt Tokens.

Electric Motorcycle Company ALYI Expected To Generate First $ 1 Million Or More In Revenue This Year With Higher Gross Margin Than The Competition

$ ALYI – Retro Revolt Electric Motorcycle based on WWII era BMW R71 military motorcycle

Dallas, Texas, September 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTC Pink: ALYI) (“ALYIâ€) has launched a comprehensive, comprehensive electric vehicle ecosystem business strategy with an electric motorcycle company designed to separate itself from the array of struggling competitors in the very difficult electric motorcycle business.

Motorcycle frames lack the capacity that car frames have for large batteries to extend range and multiple engines to accommodate differences in city and highway driving. The electric motorcycle solutions that have come to the market in the face of frame capacity limitations have shifted towards monstrous sized bikes with the price of an SUV that appeal to a very small, deep pocket-sized consumer sector, or bicycles. minimalist, scooter-sized that have limited appeal to general consumers. The result – so far the market has yet to see an outstanding electric motorcycle company hit the market.

ALYI’s electric motorcycle business is also well positioned to succeed and stand out in a market dominated by monster-priced bikes, SUVs and scooter-sized alternatives.

First of all, electric motorcycles are just one part of a much larger EV ecosystem business. ALYI does not depend solely on its electric motorcycle business.

Second, ALYI has only a small consumption component of its overall electric motorcycle business. The main goal of ALYI’s electric motorcycle is to provide a business solution, not a consumer solution.

ALYI’s electric motorcycles business is strongly focused on providing a carpooling solution in Africa to replace existing combustion engine motorcycle taxis with electric motorcycles.

The Global Motorcycle Taxi Market Has Been Assessed By Verified market research to $ 16 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach over $ 29 billion by 2026.

ALYI will not only generate income by selling electric motorcycles in the taxi market, ALYI will also generate income by participating in the taxi market itself as it evolves into a carpooling business model.

Not only does participation in the taxi market provide greater resilience to ALYI’s electric motorcycle business, it also offers the potential for higher profit margins than typical EV companies are designed to generate.

Tesla, for example, reported a 24% gross margin at June 30, 2021. Uber reported a 46% gross margin at June 30, 2021. ALYI plans to generate income not only from the sale of electric vehicles, but also, for example, from the ridesharing business to which the company supplies electric vehicles.

ALYI has a mainstream electric motorcycle that it plans to release before the end of 2021, and it will be priced much lower than an SUV.

ALYI developed its own consumer electric motorcycle as a research and development project that amassed a large body of EV intellectual property for ALYI while producing an affordable electric motorcycle with a consumer appeal rooted in decades of popular Western culture. . The Retro Revolt electric motorcycle based on the WWII era BMW R71 military motorcycle is undergoing a final design review and will soon be available to order in a limited edition.

Management plans to further clarify its overall revenue targets and gross margin expectations next week, Thursday, September 9.e, 2021, in conjunction with a schedule management update to provide the latest details on the company’s progress in delivering 2,000 electric motorcycles to Africa to serve the motorcycle taxi (boda-boda) market. The company has previously indicated that it expects more than a million in revenue this year. The update will provide more details on expected sales before the end of the year to include a specific revenue target.

ALYI builds a comprehensive electric vehicle ecosystem that addresses the entire electric vehicle adoption environment, from the perpetual design of the best-in-class vehicles to the perpetual design of the myriad of mechanical and digital systems that go into a first-rate vehicle; from the charging and servicing infrastructure that supports consumer and commercial vehicles, to the EV value proposition itself that drives consumers and businesses to switch from combustion engines to electric vehicles.

Delfast relaunches the Dnepr motorcycle brand

Photo: Delfast

We have another contender for the title of Ultimate Zombie Brand. After withering in the post-Soviet era, the Dnieper brand was revived. However, the revived society will be very different from the previous iteration.

Founded in post-WWII Ukraine, Dnieper was one of several Communist factories that built design adaptations of the BMW R71. The Germans and Russians used the R71 design during WWII, with a sidecar attached to the motorcycle for utility purposes (making it much easier to carry a light machine gun and a few belted ammunition crates of this way !). After WWII, the Soviets continued to produce the design, through factories in the Urals and Dnieper, and also gave the design to China, which used it to build the similar CJ750.

The new Dnepr is nothing like these bikes. It is an electric motorcycle, designed to handle speed races on land at the Bonneville Salt Flats. Obviously, it’s not an app aimed at consumers, but the accompanying press release reveals that it was Ukrainian e-bike maker Delfast that bought the brand. Does that mean we’ll see Dnepr come back as a budget battery bike brand? That would be very cool, if so!

We’ll probably know more about the Dnieper’s efforts in the salt marshes in a few days. Ukrainian runner Serhiy Malik rides his bike in Bonneville; it’s already rode in 2017 and 2018. That’s about all we know about this project at this point, though.

The model is based on the legendary Dnepr Electric motorcycle which set a record at Bonneville Speed ​​Week in 2018 with a speed of 104.78 mph. The new bike has been significantly improved to provide more power and greater range.

The rights to the DNEPR brand, including technological developments, design documentation, intellectual property for existing developments and the design of the iconic motorcycle model, belong to Delfast.

The author, ideologue and creator of the motorcycle is Serhiy Malik, a Ukrainian racer and motorcycle rider at this year’s competitions in Bonneville. He is also multiple champion at Bonneville Salt Flats in 2017 and 2018.

About DELFAST INC. :

Delfast revolutionized the electric bicycle market by setting the Guinness World Record for the electric bicycle with the longest charging range on record. People in over 40 countries enjoy the ride with Delfast, including ordinary citizens, police officers in Mexico and the United States, and individual entrepreneurs who use e-bikes for business purposes.

Royal Enfield Becomes New Zealand’s Best Midsize Motorcycle Brand

Royal Enfield has taken the world market by storm. It all started in 2018, when the once-obscure Indian motorcycle maker launched one of the best retro-styled bike duos on the market. I’m talking about the Interceptor 650 and the Continental GT 650, Royal Enfield’s claim to world fame. Both the Interceptor 650 and the Continental GT 650 have attracted large audiences around the world.

That said, Royal Enfield recently took a pretty impressive step forward in the Land Down Under. In New Zealand, Royal Enfield took the crown as the best-selling motorcycle brand in terms of sales in the mid-size motorcycle segment. Comprised of motorcycles with a displacement of 250cc to 1000cc, Royal Enfield has overthrown industry giants in the New Zealand market and continues to stand out with an impressive fleet of classically styled machines.
