BRP's Can-Am has lowered the MSRP on its electric naked Pulse and dual-sport Origin. The Pulse now starts at $10,999, with its Rotax E-Power motor producing 47 hp and 53 lb-ft of torque, capable of a 0-60 mph sprint in 3.8 seconds.
I really like the packaging of Can-Am's Pulse. 390 pounds of lightness, a middleweight naked's size, and electric's instant torque on top. Looking at the spec sheet, you can tell ease of handling was designed as the top priority. The price cut made it a lot more accessible all at once, and I'm dying to actually experience the moment I twist that right hand.

Didn't know Can-Am made motorcycles too - I only ever pictured ATVs from them.
47hp and 53 lb-ft - how does that stack up against existing gas-powered midsize nakeds?
Electric torque delivery feels different from gas engines, so simple horsepower/torque comparisons only tell part of the story.
Competing on price with Zero and LiveWire shows Can-Am's getting serious about this too.
0-60 in 3.8 seconds for $10,999 feels like a genuinely good deal for an electric naked.
An MSRP cut shows the price war among electric bikes is really heating up now.
