Yes, but why? I have an entry level Kawi and it gets about 60MPG, which is already higher than most cars. Motorcycles already accelerate pretty quickly, so the electric drivetrain doesn't offer a lot there. I can see this making more sense at the higher CC levels, because the bigger bikes burn more fuel and are heavier. Not seeing the big deal for smaller CC sporty bikes.

Think of it as a zero-emissions bike for heavily restricted city centers, a fuel-sipping urban cruiser, and a fully capable canyon carver able to take on 200-plus mile days, suggests Kawasaki." It's less about fuel economy and more about emissions. Also FTA: "the Kawasaki Ninja 7 Hybrid, the first mass-production strong hybrid motorcycle—Kawasaki’s two-wheeled solution for the modern world, where Zero- and Low-Emissions Zones are very much a reality. Even if they haven’t made their way to the United States, yet."
