Electric motorcycles in Australia: prices, rules and what to check

Updated 4 November 2026

Electric motorcycles in Australia cost from about A$400 for a small kids' model to about A$18,000 for a premium off-road bike. Adult dirt bikes mostly sit between A$2,200 and A$7,000. Approximately, according to sellers' websites, November 2026. For a price on the bike you want, send a request on BlaBlaPrice and the AI will look through the offers in your city.

Power limits and what the rules cover

Most rules we found are written for electric bikes: a pedal-assist motor of up to 250 W continuous, with assistance cutting out at 25 km/h, and the EN 15194 standard. Victoria's guidance adds helmets, lighting, power limits and approved batteries and chargers to reduce fire risks. Several listings say "off-road only", so check the seller's wording and your state's rules before riding on the road.

Warranty and service

A reputable brand usually gives at least two years on the drive system, so ask about that first. Get the warranty in writing and ask where the authorised service workshop is in your city. One brand's owner FAQ asks riders to book a service at an authorised dealer to diagnose a fault, which is the same question to put to any seller.

Summer, batteries and chargers

Summer runs from December to February, and a bike bought in November will spend its first months in the heat. Ask how the battery is charged and stored, and whether the charger is approved for that battery, because charging is the fire risk the Victorian guidance names.

What to put in the request

Give the rider's age and riding experience, the power in kW, the battery size and range in km, the top speed in km/h, whether the bike should be new or used, your budget in A$ and your city. Some listings show watts and miles per hour, so ask in kW and km/h to compare fairly. Ask whether the price includes GST and delivery to your city.

Get offers through BlaBlaPrice: describe the bike in your own words in the chat, for example the rider's age and your budget, and add a photo if you have one. It is free for buyers. BlaBlaPrice's AI asks for missing details, looks through sellers' websites and price lists in Australia, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Registered sellers reply with their offer, and your contacts stay hidden until you choose. You can also look at motorcycles or electric mopeds, or create a request from the home page.
