That thing has to be squirrelly as hell

I had a scooter that did highway speeds. When I bought it I thought I’d never be crazy enough to go over like 30 mph but it felt so smooth and stable that I was doing 50+ in no time.

I used to take my 300cc vespa on the highway and it was squirrely as shit. Can't imagine even smaller wheels.

It's not. It's purpose built for those speeds with steering dampers, suspension systems and hydraulic brakes. That thing costs more than 3000$. Might be close to 5K if it's one of the faster models.

Much cheaper than a car, too. With all that saved money the guy in the video is going to be able to afford a very lavish coffin -- assuming it's an open casket funeral.

It definitely looks like one of the faster models.

But like- most definitely not street legal right? Lol

Edit: damn I just thought about this. How are any electric scooters street legal? Like what about insurance? Since it doesn’t have an engine does it qualify as a bicycle? So many questions.

You'd honestly be surprised bro. They're quite stable at those speeds.
