The video ad says they want 6,500 or suggested price. I'm sure it's fun around the back 40 and no gas is a plus if you ride it 50 miles a day.☺ I personally go for value, or how useful something is. I've become interested in later model dual-sport four stroke bikes, They go anywhere, street or off road, like expeditions around the planet, many now have electric starts, no kick, over 11.5"+ on the engine/frame clearance, and way superior suspension...And some will get 72 or so miles per gallon at around 200 miles on a tank etc and will do freeway+ speeds.

And the best part is they can be purchased for significantly less money than the electric mini bike in the video.

I'm just talking bang for the buck here.

All true but unlike this little beast, I can’t ride any of those on the local bicycle trails. And the suspension on this thing is one of its most surprising qualities. It’s not going to hop any fallen trees, but rocky gravel or dirt trails are no problem. (It even has electric reverse like my Goldwing!)

Between this and the Goldwing, there might be room for one of those awesome Dual Sport bug-out bikes somewhere in my garage, but I’m getting too old for tree hopping, alas.
