    Because Dubai

    The cops are wearing Alpinestars gear and Leatt neck braces! The bike kinda looks like an RC8.

    I would like one of these, that way, I can just take off after Turn 2 and land back at 12 and leave all the scuffed up pavement to others.

    * Calls cops, they soar in on hoverbikes, land *

    * Propellers decapitate several people *

    * Call more cops, they soar in on more hoverbikes, land *

    * More decapitations *

    * Calls cops, they soar in... *

    It's the end of Dubai as we know it

    what about when Ponch gets a little too close to John as they cruise their regular patrol?

    Did you see the part about this being a "Russian" company? Last I checked, they weren't great at making reliable and safe modes of transportation.

    What if you get a leg cramp, or need to point at a perp? The cops won't have any limbs after a few chases.

    Last time I checked, Russia wasn't great at making things in general. Of all people I would know, I was born and raised there.

    Welcome to America. Please enjoy our better made items, most of which sourced from China.

    Items built in China are built to a price point. I don't see too many people complaining about poor quality of their iPhones, which are built in China.

    The problem with stuff built in Russia is that you get an equivalent of a decade old Motorola for the price of an iPhone X.

    When it comes to things that could actually maim or kill you if they malfunction, I don't see many inexpensive imports from China. In fact, when it comes to transportation, I see items made in US, Japan, Germany, Korea and UK. Come to think about it, there is a grand total of one particular model and trim level that is made in China and available stateside. Oddly enough, it enjoys better reliability rating than BMW. But then, comparing reliability to BMW is not setting the bar terribly high.
