Motorbikes are often considered to be the epitome of 'cool' and now fans of these speed machines have options if they want to go green.

Here are three electric motorbikes you could be cruising down the open road on in the very near future.

The Lightning LS-218 is designed with classic sports bikes in mind.

On top of that the LS-218 has superior efficiency, performance, and is cheaper than its current gasoline equivalents.

The Brutus V9 is perfect for fans of chopper type motorcycles.

This brawny beast boasts both performance and acceleration leagues ahead of classic choppers.

The Brutus also has one of the largest battery packs within the industry, meaning that it will power through even the toughest day's ride.

It is a highly versatile motorcycle and is therefore ideal for touring and chasing down speeders alike.

There is even a law enforcement option available, exclusively to registered law enforcement agencies of course.
