Harley will definitely need to do something acoustic for its e-bikes. Half the reason people ride those is the sound they make.

I mean, this just sounds super annoying : https://youtu.be/vuhPZTrSmBw?t=20

I can see engine noise design becoming a thing. Reminds me of that old game "Full Throttle". To make the engine noise there they sampled a lion roar, a bengal tiger, and a jet engine: https://youtu.be/rf9xqsmO9m4?t=107

They'll just make you say "potato" to start the bike, then keep playing it back as you drive.
