I don't know where to draw the line between a very fast ebike or a very slow motorcycle? I don't know if this falls under the same box as motor vehicle like a scooter or moped or a regular vehicle because of its top speed up to 50 mph? You can get a Honda dirt bike with more capabilities, power, and range for same or cheaper price. I rather spend more to get more instead of spending more to get less.

Or you could read our previous discussion. https://electricbikereview.com/foru...fers-236-mile-range-on-a-single-charge.14482/
Yeah, depending on your state laws, this can only be ridden off road; otherwise, be prepared to add a tag, tax and insurance like a motorcycle. The term “e-bike” seems to be very fluid these days.

No interest in electric bicycles that look like dirt bikes.
I think I would be pulled over on the streets and fined for no motorcycle registration. I still have a motorcycle drivers license, so no ticket for that. Then I have to go to court and prove it's a low power bicycle and I would lose, although most of of my ebikes fail the law where I live (they can go faster than 20 mph on throttle). However, none of my ebikes, except maybe the fatbike arouse any attention. On my bike paths. with a Delfast, everyone pushing a baby stroller (half of them carrying dogs, not humans) would be on their phones reporting a maniac on the path.
A 200 mile range? There's no technology advance. Just a bigger package for the lithium cells, and the power/volume is not even as high as the best 18650 cells. The market isn't really looking for 50AH batteries. That's a 24 charge cycle with a 2A charger.That's a six hour day in the bike.
