So much fun! It has upgraded batteries so it has a bit more power 2x1500 watts, get around 100 kms on a charge and this one will top out at about 80 kph 😛.

Farthest I've gone so far is from downtown Vancouver (West End) to Coquitlam Center and back. My gf and her daughter both have the Swift which is model down from this one.

Around town I can keep up with my gf's Vespa scooter lol!! 🤣

Got a spoiler for my C8 without having to waste all that money on my non tracking Vette Z-51 for 10 cents on the dollar so now l can put that $7000 into things on her that make her my Creation like Mag ride , Scorpion rims ,carbon fiber roof and performance exhaust .

That's a pretty cool ride Hiroki. Not a chance in hell you'd catch me doing 80 kph on it though... I know what broken bones and pavement rash feels like at that speed... lol.... Enjoy it man but scoot safe...
 
Hey just for the record fellas i topped the scoot out just once in the month or so that I've had this thing. At around 75 kph the steering starts to heavily wobble so it gets scary. Also this model was designed to top out at 60kph but mine has been modded lol!. A steering damper would help but honestly i won't be going fast all the time. I run mostly on eco mode and single motor.

When i did do the top end run i had my motorcycle helmet on and my gloves, elbow and knee protectors. I also did this up at Cypress Mtn, not just on a busy street.

Sounds similar to the death wobble that the Dodge pickups have. 😄

Brand New (2020) Updated Large Hardcover on the shelves today.
Expensive as heck @ $72 but an Employee Discount softened
the blow by 1/3rd so this is added to my Hibernation reading library.
It was the only copy received by the bookstore.
A New Mustang book came out too ...
but that's for other users and for another Forum
info for ... @Jeffer2013

The initial 2014 release of this Corvette book still sells for a healthy amount
and has a C7 on the cover ... so watch for the C8 logo for the 2020 release.

Next up is a C8 Hardcover book that is due for release in Dec'20-Jan'21.
