The Harley-Davidson LiveWire S4 Honcho Street is the road-legal version and comes equipped with mirrors, LED lighting, indicators, an instrument cluster, and a rear fender. On the other hand, the Harley-Davidson LiveWire S4 Honcho Trail is focused on off-road fun and skips most of these road-going components. It also gets knobby off-road tyres, while the Street variant rides on road-friendly rubber.

Powering the Harley-Davidson LiveWire S4 Honcho Electric Mini Bikes are dual removable battery packs with a combined capacity of 1.74 kWh. Under normal riding conditions, the bikes can travel up to 85 km on a single charge. However, at a constant speed of around 32 km/h, the claimed range increases to approximately 117 km.
