At the end of February 2024, LiveWire formally issued a safety recall on 100 percent of its hotly anticipated 2024 S2 Del Mar units in the US due to a vehicle supervisory controller (VSC) software issue. Now, just saying the words "software issue" may not sound scary at first, until you consider what the actual issue is: That the electric powertrain may suddenly and completely shut down without warning.
To clarify my own personal positions on things ahead of any talk otherwise, I'm cool with tech. I'm also cool with electric motorbikes, from e-bikes to actual full-fat motorcycles. If I can ride it, I want to try it. They may not make the noises I'm used to from combustion bikes, but I'm open to two-wheeled fun of all kinds.
