Whining about giving them $750K for a motorcycle, damn right. In my opinion its overpriced for something with a feature that can only be used in Heists (where you cant afford to die in a motorcycle crash in the first place).

 

You're incorrect.

 

It is a feature that cannot be used in races*; it can be used in freeroam and missions however.

 

* - which is silly, a Lectro with KERS will still get stomped on any track that's got long straights or easy curves.

 

 

Thanks for clarifying that, as I clearly didn't have all the facts.

And I was never knocking anyone who bought it. All i said that for me it was just overpriced at $750K and I called Rockstar crazy for slamming us like that, not players buying it, as I get the appeal to the lovers of that upgraded model.

I loved driving this bike in the heist, I know is not the fastest, but is not always about going fast.

But 750k is a bit too much on a bike, I'll probably never own it because of that.

Also, don't forget that this bike ruined many finales. People have to resort to stealing police choppers and fetching PVs, that's how useless this bike is lol

 

Incorrect. Its the eddies who cant ride a bike that ruined the finales

If I didn't give them $80K for the superior Hakochu, no way I was giving them $750K for a motorcycle.

I've done okay without Nitrous for TWO years....why would I need the crap now unless it was detrimental if you didn't own your own to pass a Heist.

I couldn't see giving them $600K for the Coquette Classic and I actually love that car.

 

Broke player problems id say. I waste 600k in paint jobs weekly. And sometimes i end up with the same paint job i started with.

 

Here is where you eat sh!t because I have $23 Million.

 

 

 

Ok so you're not broke. You're just a greedy asshole instead.

 

Have fun looking at your useless 23 million ..lol

Plenty to do with 23 million.

Especially if you have two characters on the account, it's hardly useless.

 

Unless you're one of those players who just wants to have an Adder with dollar rims, a high end apartment and nothing else.

But in that case, you're done pretty quickly.

Look man. Its not an Adder, its a street bike. And the only Street bike in the game with a Boost System. Which makes it one of the most unique land based vehicles in the game. It also has the fastest Acceleration in the game. And judging by the amount if whining on the price in this topic,, its probably one of the most rare vehicles in the game now too.

 

And, if you LOVE street bikes. Meaning you love crotch rockets... Well, nothing is more of a BLAST OFF with this bike.

I love the Lectro. There's no better feeling than getting chased by a super car, only to know that once I hit a turn that car isn't going to be able to catch up to me again.

 

It may be pretty slow when it comes to top speed vs anything else. But if you're a good enough driver you can easily outrun just about anything with it because of its KERS system. And not even just because of that, but also because the bike has pretty great handling.

1. The Price

The price of this bike is just overpriced. 750,000 that's like the three Quarters of a million.

 

Almost exactly like it, yes.

 

But yeah. 750k is absurd considering I raced my not-fully modded Hakouchu against a friends fully modded Lectro and wiped the floor with him.

In his defense, I'd rather be "greedy" and spend my money selectively (that's not greed BTW, but whatever helps you sleep at night), than be stupid enough to blow it on something I already had to begin with (600k to end up with the same paintjob you already had?)

 

OT: I already paid 750k for a vehicle I never use (Liberator, anyone?); I don't need to make the same mistake for some gimmicky KERS bullsh*t.

What exactly are you saving money for? Your kids college fund? I personally don't give a crap about money and this was probably the most fun i've had on any bike. It was well worth it for me, considering i blow money on nothing constantly.

 

 

 

Also theres nothing gimmicky about the ker systems. It does exactly what it should do... And thats give it a massive boost of speed.

 

Eventually, everyone will buy one just 'because'. Due to boredom probably and too much money. And then you will have a blast using it.

 

So, enjoy being late to the party. :santa:

You shouldn't buy it because only a modder would pay 750 k for a bike

If you want a rare bike that has a unique feature or if you collect bike's. Then you should get it. Otherwise save your money for something down the room.

Sitting at 3.2 mil. I may buy it but seems like a waste. Then again, I dont race and have a z type. Buying expensive and fun vehicles is the whole reason I play.

Its a gimmick because its banned from races.

 

I have one, not selling it, but I am quite upset and rightly feel ripped off since it cannot be utilizer in races.

I'm at the exact same dilemma as you. I have a Z-Type and I'm sitting at 3.2 million. Idc for a bikes speed only for looks and handling.Since the Lectro maybe one of the most enjoyable bikes to ride, perhaps I'll get it.

Maybe i'm saving in the hopes we get mansions someday.

Maybe I was around during the Billionaire days and haven't needed to spend tons of money after the $500K reset,

 

You re upset that you enjoyed a sh1tball sandwich because you assumed people are too broke to spend the imaginary $750K and is why they are opposed buying it.

 

I didn't call you a dummy or at any time put anyone down for buying it. I respect your choice. I was stating my opinion that i couldn't see spending $750K on a motorcycle----Give me a machine gun affixed to it or a passenger car and then I would've bought both my characters one a piece in a heartbeat.

I would never trade my Dinka Double-T for this piece of crap. However, it has a good look it must be said.

^I have the Double T, Ruffian as well as this. All just for looks and for the enjoyment of all the bikes. I just wish the Lectro top speed was much faster and it's acceleration increased a bit.

It can also be considered a collector's item. With the exception of Pegasus vehicles, I'm buying most of the vehicles updates bring us.

The Lectro may not be as fast as some other bikes, but since I got rid of both my Sanchez and Akuma a while ago, I don't need to compare it to anything. Don't use bikes all that often anyway. Having tried the Lectro in the heist missions, I'd say it performs well enough.

 

Is it a little too expensive? I think so. But that hasn't stopped me before. It certainly doesn't take priority over other planned purchases though, like the Technical.

Are people really this stupid that we need a YouTube video and a thread to know that the Lectro isn't worth the $$? OP must think we are a bunch of herpaderps.

To be honest this is Generation Herpaderp.

 

They think Youtubers are smarter then them and believe their word as gospel. Seriously, people have lost their minds..lol

Bought one out of boredom, spent a good couple of hours or so driving it around doing jumps etc. and using it in missions, it's top speed is somewhat 'meh' even when fully upgraded, there should've been an upgrade option to increase the boost time because it doesn't last long enough.

 

With a price tag of $750k I should've got more bang for my buck.
