As luck would have it a demo truck was there so I got to see this ride. Might go see if I can test ride it Sunday.

Where's the exhaust on that thing?!
Under the seat?
Well, not sure I'm on board with my German brothers on this one. *
I noticed they quit texting me after they saw my LIKE seat rebuild.....

I'd be curious what you think. Nearly bought a BMW 1100rs some years ago in Waco, Tx but it was the worse for wear but more importantly, couldn't flat foot it. My sister in Colorado has a really fine 95 1100RT and I would love to own one of those but don't"t feel comfortable riding a bike I can't get both feet to the ground. Curious about seat height on scooter. I've get a client who would love to sell me his RS but it's worse than the RT as the handle bars are lower and have to reach farther. I guess BMW is not in the cards in my future.

The test ride was a bust. I showed up about 7:30am and was number 8 in line for rides. I signed up and said I wanted to ride the C Evolution the lady said they were not going to ride it till 10:30, I said oh I have a group ride in Long Beach at that time. She says oh, ok well I guess we could get one ride out of it, she says it wasn't recharged after the demo runs yesterday in Palomar. Demo ride time is 9am, time rolls around and the bike isn't staged yet. After the riders meeting a gal asks who was riding the C Evolution, she comes over and says they just went to get it and found a screw in the tire. They apparently do not have anyone that can repair it on site or nearby on a Sunday so the ride is out, darn. Well I figured I might as well ride something since I came out. I rode a C650GT, a somewhat interesting scoot and distant cousin to the Kymco MyRoad 700i I own. After that I rode over to Long Beach for a scooter meetup.

I missed it at first, so maybe someone else did too: the first bike is fully electric.

Yes and it didn't work out for me to test ride it today, sadly.
