Good Points

This scooter is LOADS of fun and I have found it to be all that it is advertised to be. It is easy to operate, peppy, smooth, and quiet. The styling turns heads and the word "electric" makes them do a double take. I often get questions when stopped at a light.
I was originally considering an EVT 4000e or 168 but wanted the extra performance because of one higher speed section of road during my commute. I am definitely not disapointed. This scooter delivers on its 45 mph promise and really makes the term motorcycle more appropriate.
I feel the price for a scooter of this performance is very reasonable.


Bad Points

The odometer, at least on my EVT Z-20, is in kilometers. Not a big deal, but an adjustment. And the speedometer seems to read about 10% high.
There was a wiring problem with the headllights that needed to be resolved, but EVT was very helpful providing the information I needed remove the part and fix it myself. I am still waiting for owners manual.
I don't think the headlights can be aimed. I have a Z-20a model which has a different style headlight than the Z-20b or the R-20 models.
I was on the waiting list for about two years as they resolved some production issues. But it was worth the wait.


General Comments

This is my first experience on a motorcycle, so I have no basis for comparison as far as ride. But the scooter fits me well and feels very comfortable.
I am still gaining experience and have only put about 140 miles on the scooter. This scooter fits my mission perfectly and overall, I am very pleased with it. If I had it to do over, I would buy it again in an instant. I would certainly recommend this scooter to others.
As a side, I purchased solar panels to collect power for recharing the scooter, and so far, have not plugged it in to a regular outlet. Feels great to be energy independent!
