How curious. That article's (from 2014) description does not seem to be a thing any more, at least in the US-based models. I can see the brand (both BMW and Harley Davidson) wanting to maintain its characteristic appeal, though in the case of Harley's, I agree with @rumudiez's comment - a lame nod to the "loud pipes". There was/is a fair bit of discussion to be had about making EVs a bit easier to detect by sound as they roll at slow speed, and US DOT even made it a rule [1]. So, there is that. Not sure if that rule applies to motorcycles, though. [1]https://chargedevs.com/newswire/us-dot-finalizes-quiet-cars-rule/ https://chargedevs.com/newswire/us-dot-finalizes-quiet-cars-...
