i like how they sit back and watch where the market goes, and then show up with their product saying 'oh well, this is how you REALLY oughta do it!'

not the first time they have pulled that trick.

Ya, I rode one for the 1st time in the Keys a few weeks ago, and it was nuts. Mone went 40mph, and that was fast enough. The owner said he has one's that go 70mph, and they scare the **** out of him.
