@@Randumbly I'm trying lol. It'll happen.. Hopefully soon. @brianskies yeah. I seem to have missed the July 4th batch and whatever other secret drops they might have had since
Congrats on your bike, I received mine yesterday, I also have the R (and a big Zero DSR), I'm gonna uncrate/assemble mine this weekend, your video was informative, good work!!
Damn you have both?! And a Zero!? Lol that's what up! Make a video of the unboxing and do a comparison with the R. I'm sure a lot of people would check that out.
@@Randumbly Lol, yeah, my wife isn't happy but you know the deal, ask for forgiveness thing:) I have no video skills but I might try that. I got the Zero a few months back when they had some good rebates, first I've seen of any, plus I can write off 10% I think on taxes so it was time to bite the bullet and go for it. I'm actually thinking of selling the R to try the Ultra Bee, what do you think?
Haha yea. I've seen one Zero around here before, thing was clean af. Dude tbh I know absolutely nothing about the Ultra Bee. But if you felt you've had your fun on the Sting R and you're ready to try something new then go for it. You still have the other 2 beasts lol
I just ordered mine today. I have a surron and I left it in California. But looks about the same as surron unboxing but thanks for the video. I know what to expect.
My talaria xxx just arrived today, watching this to help me set it up 🤠 UPDATE: Not even 10mins into my ride I come to an intersection, and a truck waved me to go, so boy I went and wheelie straight onto my back, guy didn't see if I was okay just thought okay I'll go instead and drove off!
Just ordered mine. Never had a bike like this before I have no idea how to put that front tire on. Is it obvious as to where the tired locks into the bike itself?
I ordered mine from Luna as well, just curious how long did it take to receive your bike after time of purchase? It’s only been a few days but I am looking forward to my shipping status changing from “ awaiting fulfillment” to “shipped”🤞🏽😂
From what I've seen it's only been aftermarket batteries, but at the time of this video, this was a brand new bike of it's kind (unlike the surron and talaria sting) on the market and I wasn't about to put my trust into a bike that's only been around for less than a few weeks.
So for this bike, there's a few extra steps to accessing the battery like removing the rear shock and moving the rear wheel out of the way. I personally like to bring my battery inside with me whenever I'm not riding, I don't like leaving it in the bike.
Lol I've charged the battery during the other unboxings as I was assembling the bike, but for this bike I couldn't easily access the battery right away like I could with the Sting R or Surron. I mean I guess I could have just plugged it in the side right then and there. Imo It's not really hard to actually access it, it just takes a little time. 🤙🏾
@@Randumbly yeah i feel u, I also watched your other video, Do you really think the surron suspension is better than the talaria, did you try tuning it or even adding the proper psi of air into the forks and shock? Suspension is something I wonder about because Im a little heavier than average, 6'1 240-250lbs
The suspension on the Sting R is great, I just liked the way it felt on the Surron a little more. It felt more bouncy lol. I only made adjustments a few times, I didn't really take time to try to find a proper tuning or whatever, I just went off of what another Sting R rider on TH-cam had his set to, and it felt chill lol. Also, I think you're definitely good with your weight on the R.
@@Randumbly I just set mine up today. I have some slight brake rub but I’m guessing that will go away after I start riding. I’ve already “recentered” the brakes by loosening the calipers, then while squeezing the brake levers; tightening the two bolts back down. Installing the foot pegs was a pain in the ass. We’re you able to get both tightened? I was only able to get the riders right peg. The left peg doesn’t have enough clearance for a 15mm socket to clear. Perhaps I need a smaller socket set or have to remove the bash plate to get more clearance?
Oh I know you're hyped 🔥 haha. Yea I've had the brake rub thing at first too. On the R it went away after a while. Yea the pegs were hard to get on for sure lol. I was able to get them both on tight, I just used a regular open end wrench lol.
@@Randumbly I know you already sold your bike but one thing just came to mind: did you ever tension the chain properly to reduce the noise after riding 100 miles? The factory grease is pretty stiff when you first get the bike but then loosens up. I saw a video of a post tensioned bike and it was significantly quieter
@@Randumbly My response now looks Sooooo Rando! A bit more detail, the external headlight on the Sting-R MX 4 is ok but weak when you are riding at night above 30 mph. I am in need of an upgrade (suggestions of plug and play??) GritShift has fitment for MX-3 which I now have and will "attempt" to install- after my warranty expires in 11 months.......................haha yes SIR!
I only rode the xxx in the day, but I really love how the actual light itself looks for sure, also with the 3 switch settings. It's different from all the other bikes. I've actually never actually looked at different headlights for my mx4 haha.
@@Randumbly Thanxxxx a bunch for your response. I most def need a kill switch as well for rear tailight also. Anyone chiming Please?? I am not the only MX4 rider that needs a light upgrade and the ALL lights Kill switch.
@@Randumblythank you 🙏 and thank you for uploading this detailed walk thru of how you assembled it. Will def help me with my first rodeo coming in 👍 upload more videos 👏
This has been the most detailed unboxing video I have seen yet of the 3x
Haha really? I felt like I didn't really do or say anything informative. I appreciate you though! 🤙🏾
@Randumbly great content, keep it going 👍
Thank you bro. 💪🏾
Yes u filmed 🎥 it all exactly what I wanted to see.
Nice.🤙🏾
Thank you bro I enjoyed the unboxing
Thank you for this! This helps so much! you are the best
Ay glad it could help!

@@TheTalriaRiderI think it could not be better,👍👍
@@TuttioEbikes thank you

Still trying to get my order in. I check a few times a day. Thanks for the video
Gotta stay up on that refresh game! You'll snag one sooner or later...

Nice watching a dude thats calm and collective and knows what hes doing with his tools! Id watched this over lunas assembly video!
Great video!!!! Hopefully it will be used in my near future!!!
Hopefully!

Where did you buy it?
Got it at Luna Cycle.
@@Randumbly I’m in the EU, do you think it’s safe to order it?
I'm honestly not sure. You should check their shipping policy.

Mine will be here next week! So amped, you have like 4 views on this video just from me
do ebike batterys catch fire alot or something?
From what I've seen it's only been aftermarket batteries, but at the time of this video, this was a brand new bike of it's kind (unlike the surron and talaria sting) on the market and I wasn't about to put my trust into a bike that's only been around for less than a few weeks.
How and were do you pick it up is it anywhere?
They're available on the Lune Cycle website, but they're always out of stock so you have to kinda keep checking to see if they're available.
Do you have to bleed the breaks when assembling or not
Do you have to take the battery out or can you leave it in?
You don't have to take it out to charge it, I just like to bring my battery inside with me for certain reasons. You can leave it in.
what do you mean about the battery being in the bike can you explain, my sting r comes next Friday
So for this bike, there's a few extra steps to accessing the battery like removing the rear shock and moving the rear wheel out of the way. I personally like to bring my battery inside with me whenever I'm not riding, I don't like leaving it in the bike.

when did u get it like the date
Ordered on 6/24 and it was ready for pick-up 6/27.
How tall are u?
Can you charge the battery if you decide to take it out of the bike ?
Solid unboxing video. Too bad you sold your bike though. You could have made some more content for sure
I know right, perfect bike to do it too ha. I wasn't even gonna upload this, but I figured it might hype some people up lol.

As mentioned we have the GritShift Blinding Blazer but is NOT plug and play.
do you think i can safely leave it in my garage charging overnight? without a fire risk
Yeah it would be fire
thank you for this! this was more annoying than the mx4 setup. that left peg was a b*tch.
Lol yea the pegs were hard to install...had me sittin there tightening forever lol
How long did it take to build it
Not long at all, it's super simple.
Can you drop a link for that mini bike pump. Please, I need that in my life 😭
