But your pizza would arrive hotter delivered by Stealthbomber!
Are you sure it's cheaper?
Where the Stealthbomber could be used there wouldn't be congestion or parking charges for a 125cc. No MOT for the first three years either, and MOTs on motorbikes are under £30.Are you sure it's cheaper?
You need to buy at least a 125cc to compete, you need insurance, mot, pay congestion charge, pay for parking space (very expensive on london)...
I suppose it all depends on how much you use the battery and scooter. If we consider an average weekly travel of 150 miles. Let say it cost about £10 petrol per week, or £43 / month, and almost £500/year.Where the Stealthbomber could be used there wouldn't be congestion or parking charges for a 125cc. No MOT for the first three years either, and MOTs on motorbikes are under £30.
And the running costs of a 125cc are peanuts compared with replacement battery prices.
Get caught using an unregistered Stealthbomber on the road and the court will make it seem far more expensive than a 125cc!
.
Most of those costs apply equally to the Stealth Bomber (snigger at the name). I don't know what a new battery costs but, but the pence per mile of battery deterioration could we'll be approaching the pence per mile for petrol. The little Honda is just as good, if not better than the Stealth Bomber (titter), in most respects. Also, I doubt that it is possible to mount a whicker basket for transporting pigeons on the Bomber. Another plus for the Honda.Are you sure it's cheaper?

and also pay for higher maintenance cost (garage charge at least £40/h), insurance is higher, and petrol cost.
I say you need at least £1K-1.5K running cost plus initial cost where you need to get all the equipment, purchased the 125cc and test.
So more expensive initially but in few years time there wouldn't be so much difference!

I never looked at the e-Volz trail and decided on the Stealth Bomber after all the support on Endless Sphere.comSteve, just out of interest and nothing more than that, did you look at the e-Volz trail before making your decision? http://voltz-bikes.info/
I just seem to recall that Lee and his brother both purchased Stealth's, and by memory Lee had issues with his, and those issues culminated in the start and development of the Volz bikes.
