Are Electric Motorcycle Riders Nicer?

The debate about gas-powered motorcycles vs. electric motorcycles has been settled. However, the same cannot be said for the riders. While all motorcycle riders, regardless of what beast they ride, are all nice, there are reasons to believe that electric motorcycle riders are better.  Do you want to know why? We’ll give you some convincing reasons. But first, let’s dive into what makes riding motorcycles awesome.

Freedom of Motion

Riding a motorcycle gives you the freedom to be where you want to be as you enjoy the beauty and grandeur of nature. That wind-in-your-face feeling can leave you wanting for more. Tackling twisty roads and feeling the exhilaration of being one with nature is something that’s inexplicable. If you think about it, that’s freedom. 

Sense of Belongingness

Do you know why some think that motorcycle riders can be a powerful group? It’s because each rider recognizes they are part of a community. Have you ever waved to a fellow rider while on the road even you can’t see their face under their helmet? It’s because the mere act of riding brings that sense of belongingness. Motorcycle riders are always ready to stop and help whenever they see a fellow rider in trouble.

What Makes Electric Motorcycle Riders Great?

There’s so much more to what makes motorcycle riders awesome. To answer the question, “are electric motorcycle riders nicer?” The answer is yes. Why may you ask? Here are some of the most convincing reasons:

They care about the environment.

One undeniable fact about electric motorcycle riders is their concern for the environment. Do you know that some neighborhoods ban gas-powered motorcycles because of their noise? In fact, one individual even started a Change.org campaign aiming to ban motorcycles with engines reaching higher decibels in major residential areas, including city centers in London. A Bloomberg report noted that the surge in the use of two-wheeled vehicles in some nations has caused many cities to challenge their long-term goals of addressing noise and air pollution. They noted that even if motorcycles produce lesser carbon emissions than cars, they still produce excessive traffic-related pollutants. 


Electric motorcycle riders understand this. Shifting to an EV means they care about the environment as these motorcycles produce minimal noise.

They care about road safety.

Another concern about gas-powered motorcycles is their road safety. Many gas cruiser riders would try to show off their power on the road by aggressively cruising as they tackle twisty roads. After all, it gives them that riding thrill. However, when it comes to riding an electric motorbike, riders make sure to accelerate moderately to help them conserve power. In a way, they are cautious about their speed.

They care about their neighbors.

Aside from reducing the noise pollution, electric motorcycle riders are nicer as a neighbor. Since their motorbikes create minimal noise, they don’t cause trouble by waking up their neighbors when they go on a nighttime ride.

Motorcycle Community vs. EV Community

With all things said, riding a motorcycle creates oneness between the rider and the machine. But what sets electric motorcycle riders apart from traditional riders is that they bring this oneness with their bike while considering others and Mother Earth. And we believe that’s what makes them great persons.

Data logging for electric vehicles offers numerous benefits. Firstly, it enables vehicle owners and enthusiasts to comprehensively analyse and evaluate their vehicle's performance. By recording essential parameters such as engine RPM, speed, throttle position, and braking force, among others, data logging facilitates the identification of areas for improvement, fine-tuning of vehicle settings, and tracking of performance changes over time. Furthermore, data logging serves as a valuable diagnostic and troubleshooting tool, providing crucial information about sensor readings, error codes, and system behaviour during specific events or conditions. This empowers mechanics and vehicle owners to identify problems accurately and make informed decisions regarding repairs or maintenance. For performance enthusiasts, data logging allows customization and optimization of vehicle settings, as continuous monitoring and logging of performance data enable precise fine-tuning of engine parameters, suspension settings, and other components. This approach helps achieve desired performance characteristics while maximizing efficiency. Importantly, data logging contributes to safety by providing insights into driver behaviour and vehicle performance, recording data related to acceleration, braking, speed, and other parameters. This information can be utilized for training purposes, monitoring driving habits, and assessing vehicle performance during critical situations. Thus, data logging proves to be an invaluable tool, offering multifaceted advantages for vehicle owners, enthusiasts, mechanics, and the automotive industry as a whole. When it comes to Evoke Motorcycles, collected data is used for identifying errors and potential areas of improvement in prototypes and other models. If an error or an abnormality comes up in the data, it can be easily noticed and traced to its origin, helping identify the root of the problem. Furthermore, using data brings valuable insights into driver behaviour and its variety. If one behaviour is more prevalent than the other, or there are many, the design or parameters can be manipulated to better suit the driver and make the driving experience much more pleasant and comfortable. In the future, data analytics are planned to be shifted in the hands of AI/ML providing instantaneous criteria and analysis on the go, as the data is being collected. This will fully automate the process and result in much more detailed diagnostics once the AI is sufficiently trained on the past data processes. All of the data is collected and stored within the vehicle, as this surpasses the limitation of servers. If the data is stored within a server in one country, a user in the other might not be able to access it. If the data is stored inside the Evoke motorcycle itself, the user can access it at any point and maintains full control of their own riding data. If there are any issues with the electric motorcycle, or the user would like to understand their riding data better, it can be easily sent to Evoke for review, bypassing any geopolitical limitations that would be otherwise present with the use of servers. The vehicle records up to 10 hours of riding data and is collected every 0.5 seconds. As of 2024, the 120 collected data points make up the five main data pools:

Vehicles, that run with combustion engines or ICEs rely on a jackshaft to efficiently distribute the produced power or simply optimise the conversion of energy to the wheels of the vehicle. ICEs cannot automatically regulate the speed of their rotation. In order to control it, different gears are introduced, to be able to increase and decrease the torque. If the jackshaft is part of a transmission system, it may have multiple gears or pulleys of different sizes attached to it. These gears or pulleys can have different ratios, allowing for torque conversion or speed adjustment. Gear ratio can be calculated via the formula below:

In terms of automotive there may be a handful of principles that determine the overall form and componentry present on a vehicle. Inescapable is physics, aspirational is performance but as another 20th century icon dictated, there's no escaping the bottom line and in manufacturing that means a need to establish and maintain a lean operational footprint.
