An electric motorcycle including an electric motor having a transverse oriented rotation axis, the motor including a case. A rear wheel is drivably coupled to the motor for propulsion. A swingarm has a front end defining a swingarm pivot axis. A battery pack includes a plurality of rechargeable electrochemical cells received within an internal cell cavity of a battery case, the battery case formed to include a motor flange. The motor case and the battery case are joined at the motor flange to define a frame of the motorcycle. The motor flange, in side view, covers at least a portion of the motor and extends away from the cell cavity at least to the rotation axis of the motor. The swingarm front end has a first lateral portion pivotally coupled to the motor case and a second lateral portion pivotally coupled to the motor flange of the battery case.
