      Little tip. If you want to see something in action or are curious about it... simply walk in from the door or call them and talk to them ffs. It does not hurt anyone to ask to tag along maybe pay a little to get on the test ride if you are really interested. If i was not on another side of the god damn planet and this thing costing probably north of 10k minimum+transporting it here being very expensive i would do that. Been looking these things for ages and would love to own one but rarity made it impossible for the older ones and and now that there are new ones price will be problem, but since those are now again made new, maybe in few years there is used for sale that i can afford.
