What's NOT reasonable was the Strike's initial ad campaign. What pissed a lot of people off, myself included, is that initially they were saying you could get all the good stuff (150mph, 150 mi range, fast charge) for $13K. The whole world was like "Whoa, game changer!" Later on it came out about the bike's "tiers" and you can't get 150mph and 150 mi range for $13K.
