When I find something that makes these machines better, I have to share it. I broke the triple clamp frame piece. Replaced with an aluminum after market one. Packed with grease. I made a two stage shock for the rear. Huge improvement overall. No bounce in the rear. No shake even with hard corners. I'm so excited!
One benefit of the Reefs Servos is they are programmable with their servo programmer. You can set EPAs, Voltage, Direction etc all in the programmer so it will work on install (so long as you know your parameters) for install. I'll be using a 299LP once I make the move over.
True. I've had a few racers over the years bring them to the track and play. They had fly wheel in the rear wheel. Barely could make the oval track and off road was impossible. With the fly wheel in the frame they are drivable.
Is there really a difference in the bikes they all look the same to me I have the green Kawasaki, my son the blue Yamaha my grandson the red Honda is there really a difference in them if so what & don’t they all drive alike???
Color is the only difference. The green ones have a battery and charger included. I've been fortunate enough to have run 7 different pro motos. They all feel different. They all require a few things be looked at before you run them. Make sure the front wheels turn freely. Front brake calipers bind up. Check that front and rear wheels are aligned when trim is centered while system is on. I actually twist the front wheel while holding triple clamp. If you hit something or are short on jumps you can twist the front wheel out of alignment. If you change the steering trim knob from the center, you are taking steering away in that direction. None of the bikes I have purchased have bleeder holes in the rear shock caps. I drill bleeder holes myself. The screws are on the outside of the cap, but the holes do not go thru. Shocks need bleeding. I'm going to do an update video tomorrow on today's discovery on that subject. As well as the head shake.
I've only rode mine once. Rain sucks. So I was checking fluids and stuff. I checked my forks levels and seems to me I can't bleed the fork shock worth the beans. By the time you leave enough room for the shock shaft it has to be air inside the shock. What have you Sean on this .

Good little tidbits on your experience with them.
Yes, thanks. I really want to race these bikes.
Hope you get more interest in your area. Bikes with e-gyros have been around for 10 yrs but Losi is giving this hobby its best chance right here.

Super jealous right now. Just bought mine… got 1 pack thru it before we got 10” of snow. Best track driving I’ve seen yet…
Thanks. I'm hooked on these bikes!
Great video👍
I wish you weren't 3 hours one way away. lol I'm hoping to be down on sunday but it depends on snow.

I'll have to do a video on that.
Where you at.
South central Michigan. Sandpit RC
you need to hook up a FPV cam and head set.
I dont see no spacer , or the packing in triple clamp.🤷🏽
