Not saying they are better just look at what you get for the same money. Maybe I am not comparing apples to apples

No offense taken.
I agree, I don't have $30K laying around and I've done the math it won't pay for itself as a commuter bike unless I ride it for 16 years. (I have a free level II charging station in the parking garage at work.) I can't justify spending my money on one. To be honest if I had $30K sitting around I'd probably spend it on a new Goldwing. Then if I had another $30K sitting around I'd consider a Livewire.
I'm just saying I took a demo ride on them and they are really fun to ride. If you get a chance to take one for a ride. You will walk away with a big grin on your face.
