How to Register a Surron (and Other Electric Bikes) in California
A quick "how to" on registering your electric bike as a moped in the state of California.
This is for bikes that come with the street legal kit or have had street legal mods done to the bike.
Needed by law:
Headlight, Taillight, front and rear turn signals.
Reg230 Form Link Below

All information below is information from the DMV website.
Also known as a motorized bicycle, a moped has 2-3 wheels and an electric motor with an automatic transmission that produces less than 4 gross brake horsepower.
Some mopeds have pedals so you can ride them when the motor is off. Show Citation 33
You must have a motorcycle license (M1 or M2) to drive a moped.
You must be at least 16 years old or older to drive a moped, and you must wear a helmet while you ride.
You do not need insurance to register a moped, but you do need special license plates and an identification card, along with a one-time ($26) registration fee.
(However you need need insurance to ride on the street)

Does it work? I went to dmv today but they said I need to mail it in with a bill of sale or title but I bought my bike on OfferUp so I don’t have that information. Anyone know how u can register it my bike is impounded atm so Im tryna get it out soon as possible
Any idea if you're method works to day ? ohv.parks.ca.gov/pages/1234/files/OHMVR%20Electric%20Off-Highway%20Motorcycle%20Bulletin%20Volume%2024%20Number%201-Final.pdf

@@brayanoliva5380 I have not tryed. GL on the bill of sails. As for tittle I don't think they have them for these bike's. Hears a YT that might help. th-cam.com/video/m7CPoHlEQx0/w-d-xo.html
What do you recommend for sprocket upgrade? I got 17" supermotos (milk racing) on mine and get 33mi on sport only with good amount of hills and i weigh 180lbs
yooo im from sac too i just ordered my LBX onlinine
So but it said we still cant go over 30mph, how does that work?
Did you have this bike imported? If so, did the DMV require you to get customs clearance documents? At the moment thats where my hang up is - ordered through alibaba and the shipper didnt go through customs. Now I have to track down how to get customs to clear my bike.
How the hell they shipped without going through customs
@@andyfumo8931 It was shipped as an electric mountain bike in a shipping container with a bunch of other unrelated items. I tried to get 5 different customs brokers to help me and they wouldn't help because of the potential for representing an item that had illegally entered the country. Highway patrol cleared the bike, I got a DMV safety check by a certified mechanic, and had to go to the CA DMV a total of 4 times (entire process took about 3 months). In the end I explained the situation again to a new DMV agent, they talked to a manger and had me sign a statement of facts. Then gave me the License Plate. And to fully register an ultra bee (and additional fees for other steps mentioned above), it took $1600. If I would have known all of this in the beginning, I wouldn't have gotten the ultra bee with the goal of street legalizing it.
so technically you cant go faster than 30mph? what
How long before California cracks down on this? By Californias definition they’re not mopeds
Can a teen ager be able to do this, I’m getting a talaria xxx and I’m not trying to get it impounded
dont register it just dont wheelie in front of cops and you will be fine 99% of the time
@@void3656 thx bro
Does method still work for the Surron Ultra Bee ?
Donyou need turn light?
Are the ultra bees street legal from factory? In the US
Thanks , got my plates . Now i need parts to make it street legal. Do you have any idea ehat ill need for a eride pro ss . Thanks in advance
If you get pulled over by a dick cop he can Impound it since for it to be considered a e bike has to have way less power
Did you have to mail in a title or bill of Sale with the REG 230?
Hi, does the form require a regular driver's license or motorcycle driver's license? Thank you!
Normal DL
Shouldn't need to register it we all need to stand up to the dmv and tell them to screw off we have every right to ride on the road without a license because we own the roads we pay for the roads we're riding in pursuit of happiness
Can we have the link for the wheels
After waiting 2 1/2 months I finally got my plates for my talaria XXX. Thanks!
What state you in?
Any other helpful information that you can provide us with I’m gonna get started with mine
how has it worked out for you? have you been stopped by any police?
Did you recalculate gearing bro? Because that will not be accurate
Also can you legal ride a moped in OHV areas? Like Carnagie or something, or will the ranger have something to say about that.
Thanks for the video! Do you happen to have any information about registering the Ultra Bee (Alibaba) as just an off-road vehicle? Like for a green sticker in CA.
if you bought it online and didn't get a vin im not sure how you would be able to register it, but i've brought my Ultra Bee and Talaria Mx4 to a few different SVRA and OHV parks and they've never asked for a sticker
Light Bee has 6 kW of electric power which equals ~8 HP, so it's over the limit. Max speed ~45mph. So Boxes 3 and 4 of Section 2 should be NO. Likely won't be approved if properly filled out. I spend the money and registered my Ultra Bee in FL through dirtlegal, which allows me to sleep at night.
first attempt year ago denied, really appreciate this walkthrough sir!! loving your whole bar/mirror setup btw
Did you get approve yet.
Thank you SOO much for this information ❤❤❤
I'm sure you know this but all of this is illegal, just you signing that form when you clearly know it doesn't have pedals, isn't under 4 HP and certainly not limited to 30 MPH. Will this get you a plate, sure but at what cost, any accident or even getting pulled over may result in it getting impounded or worse, you charged in the event of an accident (and certainly not insured for damages, since you lied on the form to get it registered to begin with). I'm sure you know this but it's worth mentioning for others...
Sounds like you voted for trump and ultimate Karen 😂
@@zach85j Grow up dude. It's a valid comment, nothing about what I said isn't true nor anything the OP doesn't likely already know. Frankly, both sides need to be understood so children like you don't flip off the cops when you whip out your falsified registration, only to end up impounded, and walking back to Mom's house...
@@zach85j Lighten up dude. Nothing I said was wrong or offensive and I suspect the OP knows all of this is true as well. Entitled kids like you need to understand so you don't flip off the cop that pulls you over with your questionable registration, and you don't end up with your bike impounded, walking back to you Mom's house...
Whaaa whhaaa bwahhhaaa 😭 cry cry soybean boy 😂😂😂
@@entertainmentWeekly19 you sound like a little boy, especially the way you drop emojis like its an extra topping on your childish insults
Looks like they're reducing the size of your railway system.
hey where did you get those mirrors.
It is absolutely insane that California will let you legally register a non-moped as a moped. wtf?
They don’t allow it at all. This is totally lying to the dmv (which is illegal). To be fair I did this whole process on my bike and haven’t got pulled over so do at your own risk lol
Its insane that you have to lie to ride an ebike. Wtf? Gas only?
@@KingFriday274 It's not a bike, it's a motorcycle. Stay off road and you're fine, operate on the roads and you have to comply with the same laws as any other motor vehicle. It's not a birth right...
@@KingFriday274 a surron is far from a 20mph ebike.
@@jackfetter You're saying motorcycles shouldn't be on the road? That's stupid.
Thank you, most informative...
So at the end of the video you said you don’t need insurance. However I read your section you typed out and you stated that we need need need insurance to ride on the road. I’m slightly confused. Also what insurance do you use on your ultra bee?
What section stated that? I didn't see that at all?
17" wheels open up tires selection so you could go with a dual sport tire.
Great video. Will your normal car drivers license work? Or do you need an m1 license?
M2 or m1 license
In Ca you can have a class c and ride a moped or scooter up to 150cc anything over is considered a motorcycle and you need a M1 license. You cant use anything less than a 150cc anymore on the skills test thats why they updated the law. To be safe I would limit the speed and power of the bike if you could and leave the speed limiter on if you want to register it to ride on the road without getting harrased by cops.
You got it plated? why? are you a dork
How much is the renewal fee?
my registration renewel for my new tesla m3 was 890$🫣
That’s more than what I paid for my dually this year
@@dantheman6931there is no renewal fee
One time registration $23 fee. Was just on the DMV website
Just purchased a Solar Eclipse this past week (top speed 60mph, top range 75miles). Process looks straight forward. To clarify, do I also need to obtain an M1 or M2 license or is the process that you shared sufficient enough? Lastly, if I opt to insure my bike is that also possible as a moped? I live in Orange County if that matters. Appreciate your video and any thoughts on my questions. Thanks
You need at least a m2 license.
I preordered the new v2 eclipse and it meets the requirement of no bigger then 50cc and 30mph in eco mode which is all i want so ill be doing the same
Also did you get any luck with it as a moped?
@ghost31elite83 yep, not an issue. Registered and insured. Very easy process. In the process of getting my M1 License so I am fully compliant.
@@OneExecProducer Hell yea
Thank you for the video of this is was very helping, I'm about to do the process by your guiding but the only thing I'm trying to figure out is the price to put on the check, you said it's $26 and on the website they say 23$ so I'm trying to figure what amount should I put on the check, if you or anyone else have any idea I will appreciate it?
Go by the official DMV website pricing
Current dmv website -- $27
@@gregoriosmith6994 Link? can only find the one descripition saying its $23
@@gregoriosmith6994 found it. $27 like you said. www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/vehicle-registration/registration-fees/
What upgraded chain did you choose and why?
If your getting a surron ultra bee from USA and you stated not to out surron, what do you recommend on putting?
does blud think i have a square phone screen
any suggestions on trails in that area to ride i need something in town
ayo thanks for this i live in the OC and the dmv has been busting my balls about it. Good Looking. 0:25 i know that area, that was like south Brookhurst in HB. We do group rides in the oc you should join some time. 5:59 the homies Razor battery died at that gas station. Small world
Pretty sure you lose top speed, the speedometer is based off wheel rotation and isn’t tuned for smaller diameter wheels
lol you dont lose speed or mileage with 17" street tires. the massive added traction from them make up for it
I've been looking at the milk racing setup but not sure about the quality. Much prefer the excel setup u have. Also do u have a rough estimate on how much heavier the supermotos are compared to stock?
Also did u have to change your kick stand?
Thanks for this. I've been working on how to reg my Ultra and your method is waaay simpler then my route. Btw where in CA is this? If youre in the bay maybe ill see you around!
What does this do to the max range?
nothing. i tested it riding up and down hills + full throttling and got 36miles from 100% to 15%
that looks so sick! We need more content like this on ultra bees
First thank you for the video this was awesome. I am trying to register my stealth bomber clone that I built myself, but it doesn’t have a Vin number…. I don’t know if you read these, but if you do any thoughts on how to proceed?
Search Google for the answer
Did you ever figure out the top speed
You do not need insurance to REGISTER a moped. REQUIRED to ride on the street. Also, You must have a motorcycle license (M1 or M2) to drive a moped.
Hey you're right! Thank you for adding that information, I added the info into the description and will make an edit to the video.
Boutique to switch it up. Dual sports are lacking
where did you buy the rims?
I had my local rim shop order the rims for me. I think you may have to order them through a dealer or shop.
