One advantage for electric motorcycles over electric cars would be quicker battery recharge time. I wonder about the quietness of electric motors though.

The company also has a good business model. Not only are they targeting western consumers, they're looking at 3rd world applications also which increases the company's chance of success.

But to answer your question, it's not the vehicle for me, but I see a lot of potential.
