Thieves Are Targeting EV Charging Stations, and It Sucks For Everyone

Electric mobility isn’t just about cars anymore. Sure, names like BYD and Tesla might dominate headlines, but EVs are transforming two wheels just as fast—sometimes even faster. From high-performance electric bikes like the Zero SR/F to practical urban commuters like the Ryvid Anthem, riders now have more options than ever. Even in the dirt, we’re seeing serious contenders in the electric motocross and UTV space. 

And what ties them all together is the promise of quiet, clean, low-maintenance mobility. But all that promise falls apart if you can’t find a place to charge.

That’s the backbone of the EV revolution: charging infrastructure. And while most of the attention goes to car-focused stations, riders know how important public chargers are, especially for urban and in-between-town hops. Unlike cars, most electric motorcycles can’t squeeze in 300 miles of range. So unless you’ve got a Level 2 at home or work, public chargers are part of daily life.
