I think they might struggle to get recruits wanting to ride one of these, but at least you won’t need a motorcycle licence.

Two questions immediately spring to mind:

How fast is it (from the look of it, it probably wouldn't be patrolling motorways)

How heavy are those batteries mounted way up in the top box?

Standard they are about 240kg, I suspect with batteries and flashing blue gubbins it won't be far shy of 300kg.

I was talking to my Dad about this last night, he had an MP3. He really liked it but did say they are very top heavy due to the mechanicals of the steering and suspension at the front which are up very high. The batteries won't help.

No room for donuts, either. Unless you line them up in the venturi..
