Hey Lyndon, First of all, is that the 2024 edition? Secondly, the version we have is the 36Ah version, which, trust me, has a much bigger battery. The numbers may not seem like a huge difference, but in reality, it makes a significant impact. If you don't mind me asking, what type of conditions were you driving in, what was your average speed, and how much do you weigh? All these factors can make a massive difference in range. I'm a bit confused about how you only got 30km on the 26Ah version. You may want to check your P-Settings in the display to ensure all the correct parameters are set.
Hey bro, I too bought mine about a month ago, @80kgs I get about 40-50km with varying use, mostly in dual mode but will drop back to single occasionally, I feel guilty about using 1 motor instead of the two but ya really do add 10-20kms to a charge if you slip back to single on long boring straights or slight down hills etc. I do give it stick and get right up it from time to time...ive never got the quoted 70km range but I would come close if staying in single and nursing it in mode 1.
Hey man, sorry, but I’m not sure I can help with that. I have no idea why that error is happening. I definitely recommend reaching out to the dealership where you bought your scooter and asking them to check it out-it might be a faulty part. Who knows? Good luck, and keep me posted on how it goes. Fingers crossed you’ll be back on the paths soon and enjoying this beast.
@TechCruise26 Hey mate thanks for the message, I got it sorted turns out it was a faulty screen unit, I bought from Bikescooter city and they were super helpful, and yes it's a beast you really have to hang on in dual motor mode!
Haha, I’m so glad you got it fixed and that Bike Scooter City could help out! If you find anything else down the road-whether it’s something you dislike or something you love-definitely let me know. I’m planning to do a 500km review on this scooter, and I want to give my viewers as much information as possible. And most importantly, enjoy the scooter! She really is a beast! 😉
@@TechCruise26 So far I love it, I used to ride a 2009 Yamaha R1 sports bike, not as fast as the Yamaha top speed but acceleration it would be very close maybe a bit faster than my motorcycle, look forward to your 500km review, I currently ride in Beerwah glasshouse sunshine coast.
Hey man, I honestly haven’t had the chance to fully test the top speed yet since I don’t have a long enough road or path to safely do it. But judging by how fast this beast accelerates, I’m pretty sure it can easily hit that speed. The highest I’ve reached so far was 81 km/h (on private property), but I had to back off because I ran out of space.
Hey Will! I'm very sorry to hear that your scooter got stolen. That’s a tough situation, but I’m here to help you find a great replacement. It sounds like you're torn between the Dragon Hurricane and the new Lightning V2, especially after the V2's recent facelift with upgraded 2000W motors. Both scooters are quite similar in specs, but there are some key differences to consider. The Dragon Hurricane has a 72V system, while the Lightning V2 comes with a 60V system. However, if you opt for the higher version of the Lightning V2, you'll get a larger battery capacity, with 36Ah compared to the Hurricane's 35Ah. Additionally, the Lightning V2 features 45amp Sine Wave Controllers, slightly more powerful than the Hurricane's 40amp controllers. One notable difference is the lighting. The Dragon Hurricane has a great front light, making it suitable for night rides, whereas the Lightning V2 only has two small diodes on the front of the deck. I wouldn't recommend using those as your main light source. Another advantage of the Hurricane is its faster charging time, taking only about 9 hours compared to the Lightning V2's 10-12 hours. In my honest opinion, the higher version of the Lightning V2 offers nearly the same specs as the Hurricane but at a $600 lower price point. However, keep in mind that if the Lightning V2 just got a facelift, the Hurricane might receive an update soon too. As always, I recommend visiting a dealer who carries both models and taking them for a test ride. This will give you a better feel for the suspension and handlebar height, helping you make the best decision for your needs. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to comment again. I'm here to help! 😉❤
@@TechCruise26 wow cheers for the reply bud. Yeah someone obviously like my hurricane as much as i did....but didnt want to pay for it. Cheers for the run down. I am tossing up between the lightning, inmotion rs or completely different Ace demon bike. I use it for work and take disabled residents out riding. Its enjoyable for them and i love it too. So a bike may be better. Constant stopping and starting. Cheers muchly bud and keep up the with the great reviews
Hey man, I always try to provide as much help to my viewers as possible, and what you do sounds so kind and generous. It definitely seems like a lot of fun! I'm curious, though if you used the Dragon Hurricane, how on earth did you manage to take the disabled residents onto that scooter? That's impressive! And as I always say, Ride Safe and Keep Exploring!!!!😀
I’ve just recently purchased the beast, excited to see how it goes!
Enjoy the ride! Let me know how it performs.
Love the review great work 🎉
Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Nice ride and huge battery 🔋 too! Love rhe places you visited too, thanks for a great review man.
Appreciate it man and no problem 😊

Thank you ⚡️
What max speed were you going?
At a couple of points during the range test, we drove through private property, reaching a maximum speed of around 75 km/h.
Private property 😂@@TechCruise26
have you tried out the hurricane? wonder if you would get more range on it over the new v2?
I'm curious how far the Hurricane can travel, considering that the Lightning V2 can cover over 70 km.
And the Hurricane has a 72 volt battery
I recently bought the 26ah version, in single motor mode I get around 30k’s, how did it go so far? What speeds were you doing?

Hey bro, would love to see a review on the dragon slayer is possible. - love the reviews.
Hey man, a video on the Dragon Slayer isn't in the plans right now, so I'm not thinking of doing a review on it. Maybe one day, though 😉
Alright all good, Cheers bro
Hey picked up a lighting v2 2024 model but I am getting an E22 error on start-up is there a fix for this or a reset?

Is that scooter powerful torque ?
It's crazy! Your front wheel spins for a good 10-15 meters, it's nuts!
Hey, I have read on e ozzie that this scooter goes 90 km/h, does it actually go this speed i couldnt find a video of it going that fast

@@TechCruise26 sweet, thanks man planning to get myself one of these
