I bought the V3 about 1 month ago,have not stopped smiling since. This bike is passed fun it has the look of doing 75mph standing still. The mp3 player sound is great. The stock V3 is more than you need for riding but there are up grades that can take the V3 to a new level. I rode this bike hard for the first month and it has only answered back with give me more. I hope what ever bike you decide to buy \
