while we wait for the response, does anyone want to comment?

I do.

I have a lot to say.

Frankly, if I have to wear a motorcycle helmet, then I have every intention of modifying my ebike until it performs like a limited speed motorcycle.

If I have to wear a motorcycle helmet, then I plan on riding something that behaves more like a motorcycle,

even if that means that I have to throw down $120 per year to insure it.
It's YOUR head, Buddy.
