Description

What kind of person decides to start a high-performance electric motorcycle company in Australia from scratch? In this episode, we sit down with Dennis Savic, founder of Savic Motorcycles, who’s turning childhood ambition into an engineering and manufacturing reality. 

We explore how Dennis went from dreaming about motorbikes at age 14 to designing modular electric bikes with bold performance specs. He shares the story of navigating startup life, building a brand named after his family, and doing it all without the deep supply chains of Europe or Asia. 

We talk about product strategy, lessons from his time at Ford, and what it takes to push through doubt when the odds are stacked against you. If you’ve ever wondered what kind of grit and drive it takes to build something from nothing, this one’s for you.
