There's an embedded video in my post.  If you can't see it, a 14 yr old kid on a Surron hit and killed an 81 yr old decorated Vietnam war veteran pilot.   The kid's mom has been charged with a list of crimes for letting her kid ride the illegal e-bike on public streets, including involuntary manslaughter.

All you guys that hate on it need to remember the Japanese went through the same industrial revolution in the later 60s and early 70s. Nobody was riding Japanese bikes at one point and now look at them. The Chinese are in the midst of that. As someone who has plenty of stuff manufactured (non-moto), I have a few good vendors in China and the quality is just as good if not better than some of the vendors I have stateside.
