Despite its small size, the reviews all insist that full-size male adults have no problem riding it -- at least for a tank's worth of range.
I can see this guy selling well in cities and among first-time riders. And it might even show up at an MSF course near you.
Would you ride one?
I know a guy that bought 2 and loves them! He has a huge bike collection and uses them to cruise around with his wife. He already put a pipe on his, loves the simplicity of them but is always trying to go a little faster!
Small bikes are where its at !
Id love to have one, but I just dont have room for any more bikes.
There is a mindset among nu-gen riders that bigger and faster is the only way to ride.
Happy is the man that understands a small bike ridden to its limits 90% of the time is more fun that a big bike ridden slow 90% of the time
I was watching a video of one and the acceleration looked poor, similar to my ebike up to 30mph. Maybe someone can post actual performance numbers?
They look neat though. I like the idea of a small bike. I don't think motorcycles should be too heavy to pick up off the ground (though it makes them easier to steal).
If price was equal to a scooter, and I was in the market, I would consider one.

I really think it boils down to this: What kind of riding are you going to do?
Virtually all my miles are put on out on the open road. Anytime I'm in the city, I'm hauling stuff, so no motorcycle is applicable. I ride to get away from everything. So I ride a heavy cruiser.
But you're right. For congested, urban commuting, a smaller bike is going to be better.

Er, there's no way that would get me up the hills here at all. I'm 6'2" and weigh 270#, I'd buckle the frame in half if I sat hard on it ;-)
