Hydrogen Fuel Cells : Is it the future for Electric Motorcycles ?

This article from 2017 seems to think so with an impressive design :

This article is a little for recent with the same design :

And this electric bicycle has an impressive range :

And Honda hasn't given up on the concept - - - - - - - yet !

And this was a concept going back in the way-back time machine to 2009 :

And the ENV seems to be the technology leader for back in 2009 with this review:
