It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I'm happy for you but I'm finding on the manufacturers website that they want about $10,000 for the street legal 55mph version

Seems cool. I'm hoping that some day soon we might see something electric for less than a third the price.

Mines the 28mph one. Which is fine for where I am. Only a couple roads with a 35+mph speed limit on them in my town anyway.

I also bought it used off of some rich yuppie who had it sitting in his garage for years, with less than 200 miles on it. I really got lucky. My friend and I picked up 2 of them for $2700!

There is a firmware mod out there for them im thinking about getting that turns the 28mph ones into 55mph (theres like a 1 hp difference between the motors they used) first project is setting up a power inverter for it, though!
