55 MPH top speed. 60 mile ~city~ range...

$10,000.

No thanks. Even a Surron L1E has the same performance and is a third of the price, and you'll look considerably less stupid riding it. And you can do wheelies. For $10k you could buy one of those and enough upgrade parts to rice it out to the point that it'll give some medium displacement combustion bikes a run for their money.
