I weigh about 185 right now. Also running a non o-ring chain with less resistance, and a headlight switch with headlight off. Probly doesn’t affect range much but just want to be as transparent as I can. Also did videos on those things as well!

He told me to go with the flow of traffic, wear a helmet, follow the laws of the road, and to stay off the multi path on bay drive. Pretty simple if you ask me 🤷🏻‍♂️ thanks again for watching and I hope you enjoy your new bike 🤙🏽

Love the vlog style! I’ll always tell people I would rather have a electric dirt bike I can ride anywhere any time over the most badass dirt bike. I’ve owned and ridden a lot of 2 strokes and 4 strokes. And I’d still take a Sur Ron over most because they’re just that fun. I’m not racing or competing so these are fine for me. Being able to fit almost anywhere and explore is what makes these so unique. You do it on a 2 stroke and you piss everyone off and get the cops called.

@freerfixedit

Жыл бұрын

Thanks! Yeah I think trail riding is much easier on the battery life than full throttle or constant speed travel on the roads

Nice video buddy! How much acceleration do you lose as the battery depletes, let's say at 75 and 50% full?

@freerfixedit

10 ай бұрын

None really. These are lipo batteries so the bike feels pretty much the same until you get below 10% or so. Then it goes into a limp mode to get you home. Feels like eco mode. But I can still pop wheelies and hit full speed at like 20%

those wheelies are pretty sweet , but i notice since you are on regen 4 you feel you dont need to press your back brake. this may seem fine but it will make you loop out in the long run, if you pop the bike and slightly brake at balance point , you will feel yourself pop into balance point with much more control. great video loved it
