Hi I would like to make a similar design for the wolf box, will you be making a video of the RAM mount procedure? Or would you be able to give us the list if you're willing.
Glendale pev is the closest to me. I’m definitely interested in riding. How long are the rides?
@beerussama7093 usually 15 miles give or take. The taco Tuesday ride was only about 12 miles total and speeds of 15Mph to 25Mph max. My house is 6 miles away from the group ride meeting spot which is at the Olive Gardens on Brand.
Looks fun! I’d be hanging out at the taco stand haha. Can’t find anything for a $1 these days.
@tomsgadgetgarage i was surprised too. In the city i live in. Tacos ate anywhere from $2.00 to $5.00 per taco with a drink like Horchata or any other type of fresh drink being $5.00. So that shocked me lol
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 yah that’s crazy. Used to be able to get a decent mid day meal for $5 bucks haha. I’m slowly becoming the folks that would be like, when I was kid a snickers was 5 cents haha.
@tomsgadgetgarage hahahaha yeah man i actually say that all the time to my kids about how the small bag of chips used to cost 25 cents and even the 5 sticks of gum was 20 cents 30 years ago hahahahaha. 🤣
Hay, your my weight now

How do you have the horn mounted?
@@lunapianomovers8956 it had a bracket that was easy to install with 2 screws and then i just ran the wire that has the horn button to the handlebar grib area and strapped it on and finally, zip tied that wire to the brake line cable to make it look as clean as possible.

@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 I have the same model. Tried doing it through the turn signal hole but not wide enough.
@lunapianomovers8956 interesting. Ill have to make a quick video of it for you.
I've had this a bit more than a month and I'm regretting it. The scooter feels slow now and 22 mph is not enough. I want to keep up with cars.
@sevarchy it is indeed too slow for road use even on a bike lane it feels a little scary to ride next to cars. Thats exactly how i ended up with the Segway GT1 and now an Inmotion RS Midnight. 😅
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 Yeah, those scooters are so much better in terms of speed, but they are pricey and I can't afford it. I bought the G2 Max without doing much research and if I were to make a better purchase, I would have gotten the GT1 for $1500. Oh well.
You need a Helix ultra DSP to close the loop and tune it like a champ. I will add a front subwoofer.
@DavidmachAdo309 that ultra is a 12 channel dsp. It's not enough for the 12 speakers i have in this ride plus the subwoofer. But i believe i answered you alread on another video, i don't know anyone who owns any Helix products that can give me a run down and demo of their system so im just gonna stick to the JL brand i already know of and get their VXI amps that have the DSP built in and call it quits after that. I honestly lost interest in car audio, i don't even crank my system up anymore. It's pretty much at the same volume level as a stock radio. But im glad you are doing a front sub. That was something i wanted to do as well a couple of years ago but lost interest in the hobby, i dont want to go into details as i would be stepping on a lot of car audio youtube channel names and i dont want any problems with any of them. They wanted me to get out of the field and with enough pressure from others they gor their wish granted. enjoy the field well you can and stay clear of larger channels and their following as they may not see eye to eye with you and really cause issues for you like it was for me. Im much happier now with my new hobby and even managed to make real friends and meet a lot of people. 🙏😁
Great video man! I been watching your other videos of the inmotion rs and been itching, but i got my segway gt2 a month ago, which i would’ve kept the packaging but fedex destroyed the box, thankfully my gt2 was intact
@walterhernandez83 GT2 is a bad ass scooter too. The RS will just give you even more range at the GT2s max Speed which i think is awesome. You cant go wrong with a GT2 though.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 so far i’m loving it except when i have to bring it up or down the stairs lol, but it’s my first e scooter and still a lil eh! About the speed , been keeping it on eco lol and enough to go back and forth to work anyways keep up the good work bro and good luck!
@@walterhernandez83 🙏😁
Hopefully by know you added a DSP to your System 🎉
@DavidmachAdo309 uhhhh..... you didn't see the DSPs on the amp rack? There is one on each rack. Its the JL Audio TWK88 x2 😅
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 nah you need a Helix ultra DSP in there my friend Uno.
@DavidmachAdo309 nah, i dont know anyone that owns helix products and im tired of buying stuff that dont work the way they should so im swapping to the VXI amps to keep everything within the same brand name and calling it quits from there. Im not doing car audio anymore im done with that.
I fell 3 times before with the first one being the worst with a busted lip, nerve-damaged left hand that lasted for months and a bruised knee! Good thing I was wearing a helmet all those times! Thankfully, I never fractured or broke anything since then and in my very last crash with a pothole, my kneepad took 95% of the damage and only left me with a small cut on my knee! I never leave home without a helmet whatsoever! Helps to be face-shy and introverted on my part that way on covering my face every time! And the moment I leave home, I almost always ride my e-scooter all the way to below 30% battery whether I pick something up nearby or not because I love adventuring so my rides are almost always long!
I fell didn't hit my head but scrape both knees.
@@blackcode9174 that still definitely hurts. 😬🙏
Bro you have a sick set up do you have a video on what you have on your scooter
@blackcode9174 not on this one but i definitely should do one as i have this Max G2 literally maxed out with tech and add ons.
Do you know anywhere I could get a thumb throttle for my INMOTION rs I looked on INMOTION but it says they’re sold out
@karstonwilliams9474 i seen one On Ali Express but the guys who have bought it said that the thumb throttle wires are reversed so it wont work with it unless you are able to open it up and desolder the wires and placed them in the correct polarity.
The Og Varla Pegasus!
@ladyjedi3D yep. Its a nice scooter.
Hey Man. super cool. PEV rides are so much fun.
@chrisdudley8366 absolutely! 😎👊
I. Love ridiing
I appreciate your video, thank you.
@MrWilliamCaraballo thank you so much for watching, i know it was long but i really wanted to show everyone just how far i went and how much range i got out if it. Its an incredible machine and though pricey to me its worth it. 😁👍
Thank you for your honest review. I agree on the price issue. I'm on the fence and going over how practical the Segway GT2 would be for me. I love everything about the scooter, but its portability is something to really consider. Furthermore, the huge investment is the other matter. I do live the duo motors and reported smoothness.
Looks like yours
Had my first wreck yesterday on my rx7. Had all my gear on in large part thanks to you, since I saw this video b4 I ever purchased a scooter and invested in motorcycle gear with that purchase. I fell in a very similar fashion to you. First thing that hit the ground was my face, then chest, then knees. My knees are rashed and my shoulder is sprained, but gloves, jacket, and helmet stopped me from a trip to the ER. Was going about 20, but it doesn't take much speed when you are standing up. I basically was able to just walk away from it after chilling on the ground for a couple of minutes to regain composure. Just wanted to let you know your experience helped me, and hopefully, will help countless others down the road. And the scooter lived. That thing is a tank if nothing else. Had to realign my lights and mirrors, but it rides fine. So all in all, it went pretty well I would say. Thanks again for sharing!
Nice relaxing ride! That RS has very impressive battery life. I was definitely jealous when you said it was 76F outside. Our overnight lows are in the high 80s :(. You should get an e-bike as well :).
@tomsgadgetgarage yeah, ive been thinking about that being my next purchase as im pretty happy with my RS and dont really think another scooter that has the same performance specs would make it feel different. So far im looking at the Segway Xyber e bike with the dual 30 amp hour batteries which is 60 Amps total for long range at a chill speed or the Solar Eclipse 2.0 Race edition, not for racing it but fir the stronger motor and bigger battery. 45 Amps on that one. Im just wondering which one is the cheapest as the Solar is like $6,799.99 which is quite a bit and rumors of the Segway Xyber base model is supposed to be $2,700.00 with 1 battery vs the dual battery model.
Nice video, thanks for coming out!
@JPL_Rides thank you gor having me. Looking forward to the Taco Tuesday ride. 😁👊
Man...I need to start a PEV group ride here in bakersfield
@@therealcmplx riders would definitely show up! These groups are pretty fun and chill.
best way to start one you don't need to go the whole 9 yards in making a Facebook group, merch & etc. Just start with a group a friends who's willing to ride at a chill 15-20 mph pace for 10-15 miles. You want it to be all PEV friendly to include as many people as possible. Make sure to add stops every 5 miles or so or sooner depending on the mood of the group. Pick areas with low amounts of traffic and stick to bike paths, try not to get onto the sidewalk or pathways. Scenic routes is preferred & don't forget a halfway point where people could grab food or drinks especially bathroom breaks that's very important. Not everyone can hold it in for 3-4 hours. When picking a meet up spot, choose somewhere like a park or a public place with free parking is best. Even grocery store or Walmart, Target & etc works. Make sure to park on the far side so you don't bother customers. Also when making the routes test them to see is it smooth where your butt & teeth aren't going to be sore. Lastly and this is should be a mandatory thing, everyone needs to wear a helmet. Last thing you want is someone being rushed off to the ER. If you end up with a large group of 15+ directing people can be hard so either tell them ahead of time what major streets you'll turn on or what LAPEV likes to use is light up wands where you have an easier time directing people. Have fun, don't stress on the details and make sure everyone having a good time.
@@UrAvgRasian i appreciate your input!
Good Afternoon, got a question for you. So I just bought the WolfBox 930 today on Amazon Prime for $101.00. Here's my question, May I buy one of those Brackets your making please? It's going on the Midnight. Or if your not making them anymore, do you know of an alternative way of mounting it. Right on. Thanks
@yootoo567 hi, i havent made any in a while but i should be able to make one for you. I still got some ABS plastic material left to make one. 😁👍
Morning, Thank you, I would greatly appreciate it. Let me know what it costs, plus the shipping and I can Zelle you right away. Also I'm looking at portable power banks, and if I remember correctly, you mentioned the Wolfbox needs 5 volts and 3 amps of input. Is that right? So in theory I would need an output of the same from a power bank. Let me know if you prefer to exchange Emails or something, so that way our personal info isn't blasted across the Net. Right on and thanks again
Looks fun! That’s a great opportunity to see lots of other PEVs in the wild.
@@tomsgadgetgarage indeed. I got to see the Roadrunner Pro from VoroMotors and a Varla Eagle 1 in action.
How fast do you guys cruise at on the group rides?
@chrismitsven8544 with Glendale PEV since some have commuters that top out at 20Mph the group leader has a minimum speed requirement of 15Mph and max Mph of 30Mph as that's how fast ive gone on certain areas of the group ride with Glendale PEV. With LA PEV they have a 20Mph speed limit minimum and max speed like 35Mph as most of them have powerful e bikes. Ive onlt gone to one group ride with LA PEV but i actually like the chill group rides with Glendale PEV. As for range that pretty much depends what a person's PEV can do and if it would be able to do the full geoup ride. When we went to the rose bowl there were some outlets available to charge scooters for free so a segway scooter was charging along with a hiboy scooter and we stayed there foe about 30 minutes to give them some time to charge a bit so the smaller battery guys could still make it back to the meet up spot.
Hey I always wanted to own one of these hyper scooters, I had a Circooter Raptor that goes 28 miles last december, sadly the front lower part of the handle broke. Luckily, im saving up to buy one if these one day. Keep up the great work.
@bokoman2656 thank you. You will love this scooter if you get one. Its an amazing scooter and super easy to add stuff to it. 😁👊
Sounds great, hopefully voromotors restock the Lite ones next week.
@bokoman2656 i hope so too. It seems they only buy a small batch at a time and fulfill any orders that were made prior to the delivery of new RS stock. if you like to support the channel please feel free to use my Discount code: TAG1983MIDNIGHT to get $200.00 Off on the price of the RS and RS light and will help me convince Melvin the Owner of VoroMotors to allow me to review some of their scooters in the future. 🙇♂️🙏
