Motorcycle maker Harley-Davidson has become the latest manufacturer to drop diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives amid sustained pressure from anti-DEI activist Robby Starbuck.

In a statement Monday, the Milwaukee-based company said it has not operated a corporate DEI function since April, no longer has minority-owned supplier goals and plans to exit socially motivated training for employees.

Harley-Davidson’s statement, posted on X, said that it sees “every leader’s role to ensure we have an employee base that reflects our customers and the geographies in which we operate” – and the company would limit training to legal requirements.

      I double checked because my comment was based on memory.

      LiveWire S2 Del Mar Zack from RZ got 66 miles to a “tank”. lol
      It has a 10.kWh battery. Estimated range from manufacturer: 113 miles.

      There are four different models from LiveWire. Three of them have that same 10.5kWh battery.
      One has a 15.4kWh battery. Estimated range: 146 highway/95 city miles.

      So yeah, clearly only a couple D cells in those things. Cool bikes though, i will say.
