Very true. I would imagine most potential customers would have the same experience I did. Saw the Light Bee bike and really wanted it but worried because I'd never heard of Sur Ron or Luna and didn't know anything at all about the size or legitimacy of those companies. But just about...

So 75-80 mile range as long as it is all downhill. :(

Interesting find dirk. Will be curious to see what the final prices / specs are on Segway versions of the Sur Ron. They list the x260 version with a 74 mile range! That'd be double what I'm averaging on my Sur Ron. If that's accurate I'll be buying at least a battery from Segway if not a...

I'm with you. I've been riding my normal dirt bike less and less and the Sur ron more and more as I've been taking it out on some gnarly singletrack. The size and weight of it is nearly perfect for tackling tough obstacles that would almost certainly be a real b***ch on my regular bike - like...

Thanks 3D. Looks like more detailed specs at this link: https://evnerds.com/electric-vehicles/e-motorcycle-news/sur-ron-storm-bee-mx-and-homologated-version-revealed/ From the specs listed for the offroad version it appears that the weight will be about 259 lbs, seat height 36", top speed 68...

Take my money! Looks fantastic, hope it is launching soon. Any idea of specs - weight, seat height, horsepower, etc?

Last time I took it for a ride was March 22 and I did about 16 miles on the first/only ride. Since then it's been so rainy it has sat in the garage. Two days ago I had it on for a couple minutes running it around the driveway testing suspension clicks. Then today it was on for maybe 30...

Here's a quick video of what's going on. Sorry for the dimly lit garage. Battery fully charged but nothing happens when I turn on the key - no display, no lights, no throttle. The power did come on earlier, then just suddenly died and no I get nothing. lPf52kT-dZM

Stand up or down same thing - turn on key and no headlight, no main display (the one on the handlebars), and no throttle response. Only thing that comes on is the display on the battery itself when I push the battery button.

Any idea why a Sur Ron won't turn on? I went to show my bike to a friend just now. Bike was just sitting in my garage and has been out for a total of 1 real ride. Turned on the key and the headlight turned on just like usual. Sat on the bike and went to twist the throttle a touch and nothing...

Luna confirmed that the newest ones DO have regen. They said in an email to me a few days ago "Sur-Ron only just introduced Regen back into their controllers about a month ago."

You can pick up one of these Quiet Ride helmets if you are concerned about your hearing while riding. I bought one to use for my regular dirt bikes and it works fantastic. Has earmuffs on the inside that you can adjust with just a few pumps and it goes from just a tiny bit of noise reduction...

You should check out this video and also some of the others on his channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPg7kp4BaMk This guy is about the same height as you and he has a bunch of riding and other videos showing the Sur Ron in action and walkarounds, size comparisons, etc. I'm quite a bit...

That bike is a 240cc 4-stroke. Not a rocket, but made for tight trails. The Sur Ron was surprisingly capable and did some pretty steep hills at a good pace. If it had been a slug that couldn't even keep up with a basic youth dirt bike I certainly wouldn't have gone ahead and bought one after...

Not true. I've got the new X controller and I can lift/wheelie the front easily in eco mode, let alone sport mode. I can even wheelie it in my garage from a near stand-still, so not sure why you say that it can't.
