Fishing Trip on the Dualtron X2 & Updates about my Order of the Rion Apex
Hi John, it’s good to see you riding your new scooter 👍
Hey was wondering how is the emove roadster holding up,ever get any speed wobble on it I have the gtr,was thinking on getting the emove roadster next year,are se on how the wolf king gtr2 is going to be
The Emove Roadster is holding up like a champ. And no speed wobbles, the Roadster came with a preinstalled damper. I'll be doing a few videos on the Roadster soon.
@johnrichardson5089 nice know heating issues, I'm just waiting until next year to decide on the emove roadster or the wolf king gtr2,I have the first gtr right when they came out,haven't had any issues so far.
Great to see one of these in action. I’m happy that your patience was finally rewarded. That machine will only become more rare in the future. One day there will probably be a display of unique e-vehicles. This one would be, probably, the rarest. Too bad you don’t have two: one to ride and one to preserve in mint condition
What part of the state are most your videos filmed in? I like those country roads/low traffic. I'm in W-S.
Fayetteville N.C.
Thanks for sharing. I turned 55 in June and I'm happy to see others in my age range enjoying scooters. These are fun and I hope they continue to gain popularity.
@@lloydtucker7205 Thanks for watching. I'm sure Hyper Scooters will continue to evolve. We may eventually have to face regulations imposed by greedy politicians, but I'm enjoying the moment.
Thank you. I was able to follow along with your demonstration and my turns signals are securely mounted.
Thanks for the feedback. Wow. This is definitely an old video. Glad it helped.

Hi, 5 years ago I bought my first scooter, just a xiaomi pro lol. Measuring 1m88, the position where I felt the most balanced from the start was with my feet in the "cob" position, my feet on the edges of the board, or even a little beyond them. After research on the internet, it turns out that it is the best position with the one which consists of having the feet together, but for the latter not for hyper scooters I think, because of the accelerations and decelerations. Besides, isn’t this the position of our feet when we walk, run or stand? Then, you have to find the ideal center of inertia based on the distribution of masses when you are on the scooter, perhaps stand on the scooter, each wheel on a scale and see the weight on each axle... As for oscillations, do some research on that for motorcycles, because I don't believe that rigidity is a guarantee of stability, as everyone seems to believe... I hope you will find the perfect balance, which will lead you to forget the scooter and enjoy the ride, mixing feelings, scientific facts, the experience of others. @+
and I bend my knees a little, to cushion the shocks, acceleration and deceleration, bend so as not to break, like the reed ;)
The rear spoiler is to better lift the front wheel, right? So why do all the riders put their feet there and then complain about the stability??? Or put your feet in the axis of the movement like tightrope walkers do and who need to swing their arms constantly or have a pole to stay precariously balanced...
@@cpamoa57 I promise to give you a well thought out reply to this great information tomorrow 👍🏾
@@johnrichardson5089 hyper scooters are special, maybe adapt all that to the scooter power, size deck, your height and weight, what you feel. Just take time to search on the web too for position, center of inertia, and 3 types of wobbling you can have with motorcycles: + the steering begins to oscillate suddenly from lock to lock, is felt at high speed or when accelerating or decelerating (magnetic brake) too quickly + oscillation that usually occurs at high speeds. Its origin lies in dynamic constraints as well as wind resistance. The front of the motorcycle becomes lighter and the movement spreads throughout the machine + When the steering of the motorcycle starts to vibrate in a straight line at a moderate speed, you have a shimmy problem. In most cases, this problem comes from a wheel
@@johnrichardson5089 you can search foot position and other of AYMARD VERNAY, he is world champion of scooter, I have the same since I started scooter, but my right foot is behind.
What’s your height bro? You seemed pretty tall. 🔥 video!

Nice scooter, you can go out with that neast and no Electric unit will outrun you ❤
Thanks for dropping end with the Feedback. I don't get many challenges in my small town where I'm literally the only person with a hyper scooter.
I already got mines and I'm loving it I would love to show the photo how it looks 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🇩🇴🇻🇦🙏🏻🙏🏻
Congrats.
This is the next scooter I wanna get in the months to come. I’m currently on a T88PLUS and it’s crazy how fast it goes. Not a bad scooter for $1,500.
Hey man, beautiful Roadster! I was wondering how wide the fenders on the Emove Roadster are? Just so I know the correct size for phoenix stickers myself :-) Thank you in advance John <3
I'm not near the Roadster right now to do a measurement. I ordered the Vibrant Phoenix Car Stickers from Temu. The size I ordered was Medium "M"
Have you had to change the tires on your roadster yet ? Is so can you please do a tutorial, the company doesn’t have a video on it yet and this is my only means of transportation

Hi i bought the same scooter Emove Roadster like it but…upset how it didn’t come with no tire tools to change the tire.

Nice video but with a lower max avg 25 mph what is the real range ?

Badass! Looks crazy fast!
3:00 was wild was that a funeral procession? Sure that got the heart rate up LOL
@ScootaGang Never thought I'd ever ride a Hyper Scooter with more power than I could max out. Don't think I'll ever get brave enough to hit the max speed on the Apex or the Roadster.
@ScootaGang Yes, it was a funeral procession, and yep I got a little nervous.
Ride safe
Thanks. I'm taking it slow.
@@johnrichardson5089 I see. enjoy your new scooter brother God bless
What helmet is that 😮
@@oklahomascootin icon airflite crosslink
Yes siiirrrr 😎😎
good videos brother! congratulations on that beautiful machine! Speed tests would be great and especially screenshots of the vesc tool application, to see how much power that x12 controller works with, I usually even do a screen recording of the Vesc application to see values! It's a nice tool, good luck and drive carefully!
@@yamalmotors.7313 Thanks.
I needed to hear this message.🙌

That helmet 🔥
Wow.. very cool, the time has finally come. Congratulations to you for owning the legendary hyperscooter. I‘m happy for you, bro!
Thanks.
Hi my friend!!🙋 I m very happy to get know this scooter together with your videos!!🤙
Thanks for watching. The Apex Hyper Scooter from LEOPEV.COM is an amazing and powerful scooter. I'm grateful for the opportunity to experience riding such a very well designed scooter.
Great video!
Thanks Bro. Just feeling my way around the Apex.
do a top speed run OG
I'm not ready for it yet. The Apex is on a level that no one has really discovered yet.
I like the camera position, Just throw ur chin to the Centre of those handle bars next time buddy and feel that controlled sensation with aerodynamic position I just told u, Also I wanna see the top speed run on this apex asap…
I understand you loud and clear. The Apex's Tronic X12 Controllers and Infineon mosfets makes this beast so much more different than the normal powerful PEV. It's not as simple to tame as the average hyper scooter. You have precise control but the instant progression of power and speed is mind boggling. I'm still feeling it out.
stil waiting 3 years for mine
Looks like you are getting closer.
Where can I get those turn signals

Did it come with a tft display ,im wonder how it compares to the gtr in stability, single stem compared to double forks, looks like it definitely has alot of power hit 70 easy on this
Not sure how it compares to the gtr but compared to the double fork system on my wolf warrior, which is similar, it requires more balance at high speeds to avoid wobbles. The biggest difference I notice is that the light-weight design of the Apex in combination with its power requires you to adjust your stance, shock setting, and tire pressure to get a more stable riding experience without wobbles at high speeds.
@johnrichardson5089 I'm surprised it didn't come with a steering damper,yeah I'm sure it's gonna take time to get used to it,I love my gtr it's definitely smooth riding, plus I can ride at night ,I just wished the gtr had better components in it.
Is there any way to purchase a Rion anymore?
@ShizMurderBeatz Not sure about that but LEO PEV is where you can get the Apex.
Oh heck ya very nice looks very smooth
Looks pretty stable
Yes. The Apex is very stable and those PMT slick tires hug the road like you wouldn't believe. It's really a joy to ride this beast of a machine.
@@johnrichardson5089 I know I put them on all my scooters the PMT slick.
🔥🔥
Thanks for watching.
XD slowest
Thanks for watching. This was my very first speed run on my first scooter, the Wolf Warrior
send it pls
I'm not ready for that yet. The light weight of the Apex coupled with those PMT tires instantly let me know that I had a slight learning curve to master before I feel confident enough to do a full send. I've only gotten brave enough to push it up to 50 mph and it had plenty of throttle remaining.
Hey your patience paid off nice bro! Can't wait to see you riding the beast!
Thanks. Bro. You'll see me riding as soon as the video finishes uploading in few minutes. I was totally blown away by the amazing power of the X12 Infineon Controllers. This machine requires a serious learning curve for hyper-scooter riders. It's light-weight coupled with 30kw power is insane!
I'm still waiting for my rion apex
Things are gradually working out for all the backorder Rion Motors customers. If only the haters could get out of the picture, things would work out better.
@@johnrichardson5089 I really hope it works out for everyone I've been waiting maybe 5 years to get my scooter
Beautiful scooter brother
Thanks. I was totally shocked at how well thought out every machined part of this scooter is put together.
@johnrichardson5089 can't wait to see a ride video are you going to put grip tape or leave how it is
@@oklahomascootin No need for grip tape. The deck has honey comb like grooves on it. Plenty of grip.
dope scooter brotha man!!!!!
Thanks. This machine reminds me of what "Made in the USA" used to stand for. Very cutting-edge engineering.
Finally 🎉 i remember when you mentioned it a while ago
think im having a similar problem on my Dualtron Victor, no connection to app, and when turning right the lights turn off, when turning left the lights start flashing. Could it be the rgb controller? Or some sort of weird loose connection?
That sounds about right. Not sure where the RGB control box is located on that model but once you change it out you should be good to go. Good luck.
Does it comes with a vin #?
No. It's not registered. It's a mini bike.
I like so much e-skateboards..!!! 🤩 What is the cost of your?
Paid $2.5K for the Acedeck NYX-Z1 in this video and $3K for my Trampa Big Boi, in my other videos.
I received it...... a year late..... AND WOULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN
Congratulations May Friend. Enjoy and Ride Safe. Take some time to get use to it before going all out.

Most Eskate accidents are sudden and occur when you least expect and it’s not something that you can prepare for.. all you know is one moment you are traveling doing about 25 to 35 mph And next thing you know, you’re off the board relying on instinctive actions, which is to try and run it out. Your feet can’t keep up with the speed. Your body is going so they quit from under you after 3-4 Foot slaps on the surface . The next thing you do Instinctively is going to the Superman position. You may have your hands protected with gloves and elbows with pads, but those shoulders and arm sockets are very prone Because you are a top-heavy clunky, bulky male . Statistically the Areas that receive the most damage that the hardest to heal are the Colar bones ,shoulders and the arms popping out of socket.
Thanks for that insight. Great information.
