I know one member here just picked one up so I'm hoping to hear back on the fun factor for one of these.

But watch out, Suzuki is also out to bring something similar too! It's called the EXTRIGGER. Weighing in at a mere 136.7lbs and a wheelbase of 37.8" the all electric motor is probably be a hoot to drive.

Instant torque on a moto would be so much fun/dangerous! I wonder if they will map the electricity delivery to the motor based upon speed, so you don't go over backwards every time you blip the throttle from a stop.
