This just makes no sense. The road I live on is 100 yards from a 70mph highway. Thankfully, traffic is extremely light. Still, I need to get up to speed pretty fast and going to a bike with half the HP as a Hawk 250? Being up high and visible to other drivers is great, but not the leading factor.

I don't think I'd want a Vader for anything, not even cruising around camp sites.

Agreed...

Vader 150 is a small motorcycle on the road, shortest seat height at 31", under 9hp:

31" Vader 150, 12" wheels (about 9 horsepower)

33" Lifan Xpect 200, 19", 17" wheels (~14hp)

35.6" Lifan KPX 250, 21" 18" wheels (~20hp)

36.2" Templar X, 21" 18" wheels (~19hp)

If you want a higher profile and better visibility, Vader is the worst choice. Nearly twice the horsepower on the KPX and Templars.
