It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

First electric motorcycle that really interests me. Reasonable price for a commuter, reasonable specs for my kind of commuting, though I'd like a top speed of 70 (my national speed limit, in practice it gives me 10mph of head room on 60 roads. Full motorcyle ergonomics. Lots to like here.

I'm currently keeping a 390 duke as a one bike garage, good compromise between ergo, price, running costs, specs and storage. I don't think any e-motorcyle is suitable as a "one bike", which is why I haven't jumped. But, it is interesting as n+1 option: have the e-commuter and a more specialised toy bike for the weekends.
