I bought a new pro model 2 days ago. Since then I have full modified it as you can see from my Avatar. But............
When I bought it I checked inside the box to see if everything was there and I noticed several things.
1) The packing was terrible and the stock griptape was terribly scratched, so bad it was all the way through and onto the metal deck itself. So I took it back, showed the guy and he gave me another one. But yet again it was scratched. So we went through all the boxes and they were all scratched. I got one which wasn't that bad and got $20 off.
2) The T-tube was bent. I was already home so I couldn't take it back. I just used an old one.

3) The good things were:
It had a threadless steering colomn.
The forks were thicker (I still reinforced them though)
The stock bearins were so smooth you couldn't here them or feel any resistance at all.

Overall I was pretty dissapointed with Razors efforts this year!!! :(

I think the steering column is threadless at first, but after a while the threads of the fork thread it, because aluminum is a soft metal. I didn't have a problem yet with mine. I got it off razorama, only $45 but $10 shipping.

Someone would make a fair bit of money if they charged a little extra and let aussies pay them to buy a razor pro from amazon and then themselves ship it over to Australia. Stupid Amazon.

ALL bars are "threadless"!!! The only reason they BECOME "threaded" is because you are clamping them onto a threaded fork and aluminum is a soft metal so the steel threads cut into the aluminum.

The positive thing in all of this is that you got $20 of for scratched griptape. The fact being if you have any sense you will take that grip off anyway when you get it home or even if you dont who cares its gunna get all shitty anyway when you ride.

Cant argue with 20 bucks though

I find it funny how all you razor bashers wouldn't be riding scooters if it weren't for them. Deal with it instead of complaining like little bitches about it.
