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.

$1000 for 15mph / 12mi range. Full charge in 3.5 hours

Real low to competitors that can offer those specs on a scooter for $350.

Who has those specs for $350?

I know I can get China imports where I am for around that price. For obvious reasons I ain't buying those!

US$1k is worth it for something that comes from a manufacturer like Honda who have more to lose if your scooter bursts into flames. A vehicle like that can last 10 years, you want to have the peace of mind and safety.
