    The Japanese factory has confirmed it’s going to be revealing three electric motorcycles in the next year. The electric motorcycle and scooter market is growing and growing, but aside from Harley-Davidson’s LiveWire (and Ducati’s MotoE machine) we’re yet to see any big electric bikes from any of the bigname manufacturers.
