Check Out the 2025 LiveWire S2 Alpinista

The 2025 LiveWire S2 Alpinista represents the latest evolution in LiveWire’s electric motorcycle lineup, slotting into the S2 range alongside the Del Mar and Mulholland models.

This “sport standard” blends the best of its siblings, taking visual cues from the Del Mar’s bodywork and Mulholland’s headlight while carving its own identity with lower, more aggressive handlebars and 17-inch wheels. These wheels not only diversify tire options but also hint at the Alpinista’s street-focused handling.

The LiveWire S2 Alpinista Will Come in January

LiveWire is set to unveil the S2 Alpinista on January 15, expanding its electric lineup alongside the S2 Del Mar, S2 Mulholland, and LiveWire One. With its focus on personalization, practicality, and performance, the Alpinista promises to “set the standard for urban riding and beyond.”

It will be interesting to see what this bike brings to the table as we enter 2025 because this next bike could be a pivotable one for LiveWire.

Harley-Davidson’s LiveWire Electric Motorcycle Sounds Weird

The Harley LiveWire whirrs instead of rumbles and it’s kind of awesome.

For the record, I’ve always believed Harley’s path back to prominence wasn’t going to be through electric bikes. I don’t think the LiveWire will save the company.

I do, however, find something alluring about how freaking weird the electric motorcycle sounds in the video above.
