Any Sur Ron owners here?

These look like a blast and the price is not too bad. Anyone have one? What's the consensus?

Uh-oh.

Rabbit hole. I am already running the numbers.

Farm use, tax write off.

I’ve been researching these on YouTube. The cranked up ones look nuts, in a good way of course.

All good, Eric...it actually works for me in a few areas, at least that is going to be my pitch to the CFO of the Seahawk Farm

This thread, coupled with the outdoor gear thread, have been dueling rabbit warrens.

I love the Sur Ron: Just picture my now slender 65 year-old hulk, cargo shorts and NB's, polo shirt and a goatee living the dream.

Brings a tear to my eye.

Looks like a fun toy but:

If I really, really needed it this wouldn’t make any difference, but I can’t see me “…helping to lead China’s high end electric vehicle revolution,” by purchasing what for me would be a $4000 toy from China.
If it was made in USA I’d feel better about buying one and supporting a growing industry here at home.
But this probably a $3k scooter for $4k.
