I had no idea they even had these things at these prices. Very cool.

It will certainly stomp the guts out of my Yamaha WR250R.

All I had were dirt bikes in the 70's.

Cousin had the mod 2 Monoshocker 250.

Electric reaches full torque in a few revolutions vs gassers taking a power curve to get max rpm. That's impressive.

You might be able to get a one-time incentive payment from the state, since it’s an electric vehicle. A guy who posted a YT video about buying and owning one mentioned getting a 10% incentive from his state.

I believe there is a 10% federal tax credit for new alternative fuel vehicles. There is also a $1500 extra trade-in for any gasoline powered motorcycle during July. I don't believe you will be able to buy a new one for anything under msrp. I bought mine used and got it for about half of msrp.

your used price sounds more palatable. Thanks for the input
