$3500 will buy a lot of pretty fair sized lightly used motorcycles and/or larger CC scooters....that will safely & easily cruise much faster than 60mph without reworking what the manufacturer's engineers have already put in place. Few folks working in a parking lot, or a heated home garage or a dealership service bay for that matter, can build a better & more reliable scooter than did the manufacturer. If so, you've purchased the wrong brand of scooter from the get-go.
If you're after some fun and tinkering and have the expendable cash....that's a whole different bucket of monkeys.
Better? Nope.
Me thinks...

I don't want a sport bike or dual sport, as that doesn't help with my theft problem. I'd love a cruiser, but because they generally have a longer wheel base, I can't fit it into my parking spot.
I can say for a fact however that this BBK install is twice as expensive and complicated only because this is on a 2015 model.
