I'm not really a scooter guy...but I actually like this one. This looks like it was designed by someone in the 1980's imagining what all future motorcycles would look like. I find that kind of cool! Good video Rob!!

I have changed my tune when it comes to electric bikes ever since riding the Livewire. I think they have a place as a commuter or a short afternoon burn, then have your big ol rumbling HAWG as your full day/road tripper. Personally I don’t mind the look of this thing. Probably because I’m a big Star Wars fan

I have one, just got the top box fitted. First class. Charge off solar, no fuel costs ever. The power of this machine is amazing. Not for long distance though, the seat is not comfortable for me, it forces me to take a brake. But that is a good thing. It is to high for me i am 5 foot 7 on a good day. It is to short also, not sure how that is possible but there you go... I will never have an internal combustion engine again. I live 70km from the city, enjoy a back roads ride to and from the farm to Perth. Charge off solar at the farm, charge off solar in Perth. Why would anyone have a ice vehicle??? Well done BMW.... Firstclass,,,,

Hey Rob, awesome video on this bike. I owned a Fonzarelli S1 for 5 years and loved the electric scooter ride. No gears great take off and acceleration. Plus so easy to load up with “stuff” - haha … it was so easy to park and top up took place overnight so never had an issue with running out of energy when riding around Camden. So much fun and so cheap to run. Great video 👍

Makes more sense 12kw power for the city and 125cc compared. With the higher power you need a heavy bike with short range so it's no good out the city

@1MrBryn 2 жыл бұрын

Had a good ride of what I think is this exact bike yesterday. (it's only in Perth for a week, so I figure it's a demo touring the nation). I might be a tiny bit too tall for this bike (although the standard flat seat would give me more room to move compared to this comfort seat) I would happily have one if I had the space and budget for a second bike.

@aussiemotolife347 2 жыл бұрын

Interesting review. Not sure they are for me personally because I don't think I'd use one over my motorcycles enough to warrant it. The thing that worries me about them a bit is for places like in Melbourne where you park them on the footpath and right outside the shop you are going to etc 230kg is as big as a Sport Tourer motorcycle. So I wonder if it erodes some of the utility of owning a scooter ie... put it where you want with ease? 800mm seat sounds good to me because I'm short and if women want one that sounds good for sales. Torque figure sounds good and very usable. I'm half tempted but don't need one like I said.

I’m a fan of EV. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next 15 years as regulations depict further market saturation. I have to say, I’m a bit undecided about those “futuristic” looks. And then that rear wheel. It looks like a steel rim from a 1978 Honda Civic. It really throws off the look from the rest of the bike.
