To be fair, the cost makes sense at double the power, double the torque, over a hundred pounds less weight, way better suspension, better rims, better tires, better frame, fuel injetion, electronics and the whole nine yards.

I don’t doubt your word that it’s great. I’m just not sure it would be twice the fun for me.
