Baja Bandit

Decent range with the optional H.D. batteries.

Small, hard wheels like cheaper scooters. Needs larger wheels and tires.

My right side is paralyzed by a series of strokes and I suffer from inflammatory arthritis.

flat free tires,  light system, ground clearance, breaks down to manageable parts 

After just two weeks the battery drops 3 lines of strength after approx. 5 minutes / 1,200 ft of travel.  Leg room space and seat are not comfortable for me - I  am only 5'4".  Do not like having controls on one side only.  Reverse control hits the inside of the handle bar restricting speed.  Key location is in awkward position.  Do not feel stable on unpaved surfaces, particularly on inclines and/or curved routes. Would like a rear view mirror and pocket on back of seat.  Now I know 9 inch tires are not for me with the terrain I like to travel. Will not be buying another Baja in the future - in fact plan to sell this one and take the loss.  Time to try another manufacturer.

69 year old male with muscle myopathy, & COPD I can't walk for very long without resting.

Holds up to 400 lbs., suspension, flat-free tires, good turning radius

When the scooter comes to a bump in the lawn it chugs, like it wants to stop. Battery replacement is the whole box with the battery enclosed. This might be costly; I haven't checked yet. Forward and reverse lever is only on the right side. The left side is a brake which I may never use.
