I really like that.. It's a bit heavy though. I bet it won't be cheap either.

240 horses! I don 't think weight will be an issue when it comes to speed

That would be fun, but I bet it handles like a truck.

Looks heavy, you can tell by the way the thing moved through the corners and over bumps. The test rider looked like he was riding a V-Rod

No thanks! I've already proven a couple of times that I can dang near kill myself with 100hp. It doesn't take a genius to see what would happen with 240 hp.

600 LBs & 240 HP vs 400 LBs & 190 HP

That's no contest for me or for the track or for the drag strip.

An obese pig cannot be sexy no matter how large its attributes.

Most likely the 595 LBs claimed weight is dry (shipping sans battery and fluids) weight, and the 240 HP is at the crank, so realistically they are offering 640 LBs with maybe 210 RWHP.

Government grant?

Dear God that's ugly!

That bloody video is terrible too, I wanted to hear the engine not some eighties throwback eastern block pop music, makes me think they're ashamed of how it sounds...

I just watched the video. Yeah, it sure don't sound good. And does it not like to lean, or were the riders just scared?
