I’ll admit it—I was a little nervous before my first ride on the LEKI Electric Motorcycle. I’m not the most experienced rider, and the thought of hopping on something that looked this powerful had me feeling both excited and a bit intimidated. But as soon as I sat down and powered it up, those nerves started to melt away.
Unlike traditional motorcycles that roar to life, the LEKI gave off a soft hum, almost like a gentle whisper that reassured me. I remember thinking, “Okay, this doesn’t seem so scary after all.” It was like the bike was inviting me to trust it, and as I gripped the handlebars, I decided to take it slow.
To my surprise, the first twist of the throttle wasn’t overwhelming. Instead, the LEKI moved forward smoothly, effortlessly. There was no jerky start or intimidating burst of power—just a steady, controlled push. The lack of gears was a huge relief, too. I didn’t have to worry about shifting at the right moment or managing the clutch; all I had to do was focus on the road ahead and enjoy the ride.
As I started to relax, I realised how easy it was to handle. The LEKI was responsive but not overly sensitive, making it perfect for someone like me who’s still getting used to the feel of a motorcycle. I took a few turns around the block, and each one felt smoother than the last. The bike was agile, allowing me to maneuver through tight corners with ease. It was almost like it was reading my mind, adjusting itself to my level of confidence as I gained more control.
One of the most unexpected things was the silence. At first, it felt strange not to hear the usual engine growl I’d always associated with motorcycles. But soon, I found myself appreciating it. Without the noise, I could actually hear the wind rushing past me, and it made the ride feel more peaceful than I ever expected. There was a calmness to it that I hadn’t anticipated.
As I rode through the streets, I started feeling more in tune with the LEKI. Every stop and go, every turn, became smoother. It was like we were moving as one. I noticed people glancing over, probably wondering what kind of bike I was riding. The LEKI definitely stands out—its sleek design and modern look make it hard not to notice.
When I finally came to a stop, I realised I wasn’t nervous anymore. Instead, I was excited. Excited for my next ride on my LEKI 5000W.
For someone like me, with little experience, this bike wasn’t intimidating—it was empowering. The LEKI gave me confidence, control, and the thrill of riding, all in one. If you’re a new rider and wondering if an electric motorcycle is for you, trust me, LEKI makes the journey worth it.
It’s more than just a motorcycle—it’s a gateway to a whole new riding experience.
The feeling? Pure exhilaration. If this is the future of commuting, I’m all in.
