Harley-Davidson EV Charging Cables

One cable, for Harley-Davidson's electric motorcycle.

Bikes are a slightly different proposition. The battery is small next to a car's, so charging speed is rarely the constraint and most owners simply plug in at home overnight. Do check the inlet on your machine before ordering, because specification varies between markets and the wrong connector will not fit. If the bike lives in a garage or outbuilding with no wallbox, a Mode 2 granny charger running from a standard 13A socket is often all you need. 2 year warranty, 30 day returns.

Choosing the right cable for your LiveWire

The LiveWire is the only motorcycle on this site, and charging a bike is not the same problem as charging a car. The battery is small, the machine is usually kept indoors, and where you park it has nothing to do with where a wallbox was fitted for the family car.

Connector spec

  • LiveWire (European specification): Type 2 for AC charging. Around 15.5kWh battery. DC rapid charging on models that support it.

Check your machine's inlet

North American LiveWires were built with a different AC connector from European ones. If yours was imported rather than supplied through a UK dealer, look at the inlet before ordering. A seven-pin socket with a flattened top edge is Type 2; a round five-pin socket is Type 1 and needs a Type 1 to Type 2 lead instead.

A small battery changes the arithmetic

At around 15.5kWh the LiveWire holds roughly a fifth of what a mid-size electric car carries. A 16amp cable fills it comfortably, and a household socket is a realistic overnight option rather than an emergency measure. There is nothing on this bike that could use a 22kW three-phase lead.

Cable weight matters on a bike

A 32amp cable is noticeably heavier and stiffer than a 16amp one. On a car that is irrelevant. On a motorcycle parked in a garage corner, a lighter, more flexible lead is easier to route, coil and store, and less likely to drag the machine's inlet cover around.

Length recommendations

5m is often enough because a bike can be positioned precisely. 10m if it shares a garage with a car and ends up wherever there is room. Compare across our Type 2 charging cables.

What we stock for Harley-Davidson

  • Type 2 to Type 2 cables from 5m to 20m, with 3.6kW the practical rating.
  • Type 2 to 3-pin Mode 2 leads, entirely adequate on a battery this size.
  • Type 1 to Type 2 leads for imported machines.

Questions

What cable does a LiveWire need?
A Type 2 lead on a European-specification machine. The 16amp version fills the battery comfortably.
My LiveWire was imported, is it different?
Possibly. North American machines use a different AC connector. Check the inlet: seven pins with a flat top edge is Type 2, five round pins is Type 1.
Can I charge it from a household socket?
Yes. At around 15.5kWh the battery is small enough that a 3-pin lead is a realistic overnight charger rather than a backup.
Should I buy the 32amp cable?
Not usually. It is heavier and stiffer, which matters more on a bike than a car, and the machine cannot use the extra capacity.
What length should I choose?
5m is often enough because a bike can be positioned precisely. 10m if it shares a garage with a car.
