I mean, this is around $4000 new and the 80km range is enough for daily use, what's the problem? Electric bikes with similar range have been a thing for a very long time, there's loads of choice in the market already(in EU anyway, no idea about US)

The problem is that is basically a toy (speed-wise, power-wise and range-wise) compared to an even cheaper gasoline motorcycle.
Sure, but those require a full A-class driving licence, which is both a significant time and financial investment. This you can ride with either a very simple theory-based test or even without any qualification at all.
