 At $800 it is an overpriced plank on wheels toy! November 6, 2007
3 out of 9 found this review helpful
This 2000XR made in China toy is useless as a serious transport system. It cannot be used under wet weather condition. It cannot climb steep hills. The Motorboard 2000XR low profile rubber wheels causes bumpy, uncomfortable and even dangerous ride on road surfaces that are uneven, port holes or crevices. Consumables eg. batteries and wheels are very expensive too. Can you tell your boss sorry I cannot come to work as my Go-motorboard cannot be used on rainy days or say this road is too uneven and too many port holes for my Go motorboard. Reall and overpriced $800 plank on wheels-that's what it is! No wonder only a limited no. of stores sells it.
 Great Ride! Perfect for daily transportation! November 9, 2007

I take my Go Motorboard to and from work everyday, carries me up and down hills with ease. Since it is so light, I can easily fold and carry it, much more reasonable than hassling with a hundred pound scooter!
It is pricey, but you get what you pay for!
Unique transportation February 5, 2008

Yes, it's not inexpensive. But it is a unique piece of engineering that gives you capabilities that are otherwise unobtainable. It is extraordinarily compact and powerful for its size, will fit handily in the trunk of any car for when you find a parking space five blocks away or get you to a subway station or anywhere you wish you weren't walking -- and once with you, it's light enough and unobtrusive enough to be folded and carried or stored without any hassle. You can't compare it to a cheap Razor or some of the others available in Pep Boys or Toys R Us -- pick any of those "competitors" up and you'll find something bulky, even monstrous, and clearly not something you'd want to carry upstairs or sling under your arm. Again, they're asking a lot of money for this item and it might not be for you, but if it fits your requirements, it's an excellent machine.
didn't like it! May 4, 2008

It doesn't go well in streets w/ gravel. The gravel took chips out of the wheels. The customer service is really bad. I bought an extra wheel that they never shipped to me. While I was going uphill the motor broke. I end up selling mine in ebay after having it fixed.
