Great review. Very detailed and a lot of information. I just ordered the GT2 Megatron edition on sale for $2600.00 I cant wait to get it. I am just glad it will go up hills with no issues. My current scooter has issues with hills especially for my weight.
This is the perfect upgrade from a standard ninebot max but almost $4k?!? Bruh Also one plug 14hr charge time?!? Bruh Would love one tbh have fun with yours 👍
The only 3 gripes that I have w/the GT2 are: •Horn! 🤦🏾♂️ It’s so bad, they need to update that via the app w/a normal loud motorcycle horn! •Park mode! That’s very dangerous when @ the light…it’s needs a disable button within the App! Is that fixed yet? 🤔 My Ninebot Max 🛴 shuts off like that when being idle @ the light, so I have to rock the scooter back & forth to keep it engaged. •Race mode! Looks like there’s no difference between the last 2 modes! Race mode should not only give you more torque….but it should also give you a faster speed such as 50mph! Race mode should be like what NOS was to Brian O’Conner in the F&F (RIP Paul Walker)! Other than that, Segway hit a home run….this being their 1st ever “Super Scooter!” 🛴🤙🏾
Thanks Robb for leaving a comment. I agree with you on the horn, park mode and race mode. I haven't ridden, or updated the firmware since last year, so I can't comment if park mode has been fixed.
It's too overpriced for the type of performance it offers though I agree it does look nice. There dualtron scooters or such like the wolf king GT pro that's about 1k cheaper but higher range and higher top speed. So no I em not buying this scooter I probably would go for the vsett super 72 , is about the same price as this GT2 or maybe the nanrobot LS7+ which is about 2k cheaper but still having higher performance.
I had the ls7+.. it's definitely fast 2 2400 w motors.. top speed 58mph. But you won't go far on dual motor In turbo.. also its not built as good as the Segway gt 2.. and no puncture proof tires.. it's u stable at high speed even with a steering damper , the lighting is cool, only rear turn signals and the display is very dim in daylight., and the headlight isn't very good . The Segway is your better option it's built better. I'm getting the gt2.. the ls7+ was a waste of money
I have 3 ApolloScooters but I just made switch to the Segway GT two and GT one for my wife I know the one goes 34 mph in the Segway GT two goes 43.5 mph I’ve been with Apollo for a minute but the service is really really bad I have a two year warranty on all three scooters and they have yet to replace anything on them my phantom V2 came with one of the brake disc bent and I told them but the never sent me a replacement one and to think I have a two year warranty in just got the phantom two months ago
CONS :The see through screen is horrible during a SUNNY DAY AND THE GLARE IS RIDICULOUS. The weight is hard to manage, taking it on transportation can be cumbersome. And finally the throttle, hard to control speed while flying like a rocket or off roading. I bought one but quickly returned it. Great video review. I liked how well you went through it👊
Thanks for the comment. I agree that it's not the most portable scooter due to it's weight, but it does have a lot of power. It sat in my garage, and I eventually got rid of it.
You gave a bad comparison at the 30 minute mark talking about "if you had another car with more power is equivalent to the boost mode on scooter" What you should have said is that the boost mode is equavilent to putting your car from drive more to sports mode which adds extra horsepower and makes your car driver faster
Look Awesome but I did not see any kind of a lock or key or alarm ??? so can anybody just turn it on ??? for this very high price you would think it would have have very nice antitheft protection !!!!!!!!!!!
At the time of the review I did not see an alarm or lock function. They may have updated the app to include a digital lock since then. I'd suggest physically locking the scooter against a fixed object if you plan on leaving it somewhere.
The range depends on your riding style, temperature, road condition, battery condition, rider weight, etc. It's hard to say if you'll get 56miles, but I did get approximately half of that riding aggressively, so I'm sure you could get a lot better.
It's what we all want unlimited range get 2 scooter instead of one and a fast chargers you will be fine if done correctly I have 3 in total 125 Mile's range between them if go full throttle 70 miles range that am super happy with and am still upgrading to new bigger battery's so will have crazy range when am done in a few years , yes few years ??? Am not a millionaire
It can be operated by the button on the scooter. Twist the throttle to your desired speed, and press the cruise control button on the left and it will hold the speed. See video at 13:20. If you press the button again or brake then it will stop holding the speed.
Hello, I haven't tested other scooters in this price range, but others have mentioned you can get the same performance for less from other manufacturers. I cannot comment on the build of other scooters, but this one seems pretty solid.
at that speed you can easily go 70km in one charge pbbly even more. Can`t say for sure how much of a difference (if any) does it make in terms of battery drain using single or dual motor mode. Btw since this video was made Segway have put out several firmware upgrades through the phone app and one of them was adding battery recharge when off throttle and when the brakes are applied.

The continuous beep certainly does better work warning pedestrians. ....However I`ve found out that it`s surprisingly entertaining to kreep up on someone, drive slowly behind them and start pressing the horn button doing single beeps making a certain rhythm so that they think they are receiving notifications and someone is texting them making them reach for their phone :D Bonus points if they spend a lot of time going through their pockets/purse trying to find it and extra bonus points if they have groceries in both their hands and they have to stop and put them down.
172 lbs!! Holy crap. Obviously not made to carry onto NYC subway or bus system. Even the p100s at 72.5 lbs. is a little difficult. Not meant to be portable but meant to ride back and forth to your destination. I am on the ground floor or I can put it in my garage. Looking forward for your review on the Segway p100s.
Hello Michael, the specs say the scooter is 117lbs. I think the entire box with the pallet said it was 172 lbs. The GT2 feels very stable at the higher speeds due to the weight. I would like to review the p100s if Segway would send me one to review.
Performance scooters are just massive, thats my only issue. I have a ninebot but I moved to EUCs initially for space saving. I can fit almost 3 EUCs in the space of the small ninebot. This scooter is awesome but its a beast to carry up stairs or something
Hello Thomas, I have only ridden this for the video and stored it inside as the scooter will be returned to the manufacture. Yes, I would take caution riding anything valuable outside, being aware of your surroundings, and keeping an eye on it all the time.
It's an incredible piece of equipment. It transcends the "toy" category which most scooters seem to uphold. It's a proper mode of transport. So much fun too!
Can't decide on whether to get the GT1 with better display or the extra range$$$$ GT2 w/transparent OLED display which has poor daylight visibility! Eagar to upgrade my Xiaomi Pro 2 for a super scooter hehe! 😁🛴
@@gtone339 I'm not sure. I could read the display in full sun although it was a bit dim. It was just difficult for the camera to pick it up. You can always put some sort of black paper behind to help read the display.
By default the brake sensors kill the motor. I recall seeing an option to disable that function in the app, so you can use the brakes and throttle at the same time. Are you saying the scooter completely stalled, or the throttle function disabled until you released the brakes?
The display looks like the same part for both GT1 and GT2. www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805796121254.html?src=google&src=google&albch=shopping&acnt=708-803-3821&slnk=&plac=&mtctp=&albbt=Google_7_shopping&albagn=888888&isSmbAutoCall=false&needSmbHouyi=false&albcp=20123152476&albag=&trgt=&crea=en3256805796121254&netw=x&device=c&albpg=&albpd=en3256805796121254&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAmZGrBhAnEiwAo9qHid2bfbLx_Z_9sqUD-kAVk_OWAe1UWHcizEyZAv3p7ZAFeJqNn9dBHxoCqlMQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds&aff_fcid=161fb287b81843ab931bba33e2e50132-1701106633168-09346-UneMJZVf&aff_fsk=UneMJZVf&aff_platform=aaf&sk=UneMJZVf&aff_trace_key=161fb287b81843ab931bba33e2e50132-1701106633168-09346-UneMJZVf&terminal_id=db6c6ae4200a431893b45dfd017e3ed1&afSmartRedirect=y&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa
Fantastic video! I’ve been waiting forever to get a thorough review of this scooter. The only question I have is regarding the range, riding only on Eco, how far do you think you can go on this thing? Should be getting mine around August/September. Cheers!
Hello Christopher, thank you! It has an advertised range of 56mi (best case). That's dependent on rider weight, riding style, temp, type of road, if it's uphill/downhill, and battery charge/condition. I got less than half the range accelerating like crazy for the review and going uphill. I'd say you might get 40-50 miles on Eco mode if it's fairly flat. I hope this helps. It's really hard to say due to unknown factors.
Horrible. At least you are wearing a helmet but it is a DOT certified motorcycle helmet at least? What's the rest of your gear like? Is it motorcycle quality armor? That's why I say horrible. This thing is a death trap. Most people won't go out and spend 500 to 1000 dollars on motorcycle quality gear to ride these toys. Kids will ride them on the street near the curb like they do for bicycles as you can't ride them in traffic lanes. That's way too close to active traffic. There are no laws requiring real gear to ride these toys, no age restrictions, no licensing, no state checks for braking equipment, no insurance if you hurt someone riding one. These are a Bad Idea all around.
Thank you for your comment and I understand your concerns. The gear I was wearing was my typical motorcycle gear, which includes the Arai Quantum-X (DOT and Snell 2020 rated), Alpinestars track leather suit and Sidi boots. The scooter is rated for ages 14+, and the app forces you to watch a safety video and accept a liability prior to unlocking out of the ECO mode. While I agree that someone can get their hands on it by bypassing these restrictions that could be the same for a motorized scooter or motorcycle. It would be common sense to wear protection and ride to your own abilities.
Hey Karen, Freedom comes with responsibility. If you think the masses don't deserve free choice, and lately you cried tears of joy at the overturning of Roe V. Wade, you are at home in Afghanistan under the unkempt mullahs, in Saudi Arabia under Mohammed Bonesaw Salman, in China under Winnie the Pooh, etc.
Yea… I won’t be going above 25 mph without full body protection, including a proper helmet. Below 25 mph tho it’s hit or miss rather or not I’ll wear anything…
@Divergent Droid either you are broke and cannot afford to buy a high performance electric kickscooter like this OR you have not ridden a high performance electric kickscooter yet. Either those two OR you are a complete ignorant. Commonsense dictates that using these high powered, high performance PEV's, a normal human being will equip themselves with the proper safety gear. I own a Dualtron X2 Up and I use my full motorcycle gear. And this is not a toy, its a mode of transportation. And there is no law that dictates what you can and cannot purchase with your own money. Buy what you want. No one cares. Insurance? Go get it insured. Simple solutions. SMH
mine does 35 miles range , 45mph , 18ah battery , i bought 2 of the same scooter mine rips up hills i paid 1800.00 pounnds for both of them TOTAL RANGE 70 MILES , ANY HILL CLIMB , 45MPH . am good i will not be buying new scooter i have what i need.
That sounds like a great deal! This isn't for everyone, and I agree it is more on the expensive side. Segway has to cover R&D, marketing, branding, support, profit and other misc costs.
Hey Colin, would love to watch your review on the P100S as it is the middle one between p65 and gt2. Any plans on doing that? And I wonder why p100s is the most difficult scooter for you to obtain compared to p65 and the gt2
Hello Kobe, thanks for the comment. I do not plan to review the P100s unless Segway sends me one. Due to the high price tag I do not intend to purchase one myself for review. I was lucky enough to be sent the P65 and GT2.
@jmp622 Can you compare the suspension quality of the two? Obviously gt2 is better but how does the p100s suspension match up and what's the range in drive mode
That's about accurate top speed. I get 75.6kms per hour top speed with my gt2. Just got it and I'm loving it ! 👍 I love to use It late at night so no traffic. 😁👍
Yeah.. each has it's own uses. The R3 seems more useful, is quicker and can on the freeway. The GT2 can be taken on public transportation and does not need to be registered or insured.
@@ColinLeung You are so lucky to be able to get to review these amazing products. believe it or not I am more scared riding the Varla eagle one than my R3, I just ordered the P100S (backer #70), but dang I will definitely get this one soon as segway release it in their site. I'm a sucker for segway products, I have 3 kids and they love their G30 and ninebots. P100S and hopefully GT2 will be mine only lol.
@@juanchopapa3286 Yeah, I'm grateful for the opportunity to review the scooters. Oh nice. Let us know how you like the P100S. It seems better than the P65 with the suspension.
Thanks for review. Didn't know you could limit the battery charge and boost mode only worked in race mode and it limits you when you 1st get it. I have ordered mine a few months ago I can't wait to get mine. Only a month-ish before they are in North America.
I took it down. The company that's letting me review it told me to make some changes to the specs, so I need to reupload it. It'll be up again later this week.
1:34 ,Confusing part is when you were talking about signal light button & the glaring display,on the signal light you said & you cannot press this ? Down ? Well how the hell is one supposed to signal when you can't press a signal light button & said glaring screen you claimed l don't think it's not warranted not putting said piece of cardboard on ????? Getting too overdone & making things more complicated than they need to be,the best things in life are the most simple. So that means your not the best nor simple. Period
What you could have said is Slide either left or right to do a signal light button blink not press said button because it's not built to press & there's zero icons that area just one boring looking round blob button that's completely blank on what's it's there for you and them combined just made a bad situation worse, thank God the other two control function round dial buttons have actual white on grey icon script why they left out script for said blinker is a super fail. Period
15:53 definitely looks like again a push rather than a slide on the blinker button, but I don't care l just came from reserving for early 2024 a VSETT 10+ with the car like Huge central display for $2500.00CAD & shipping TBD.
Very dumb these are not legal on public roads currently ,why your spewing out like they are is obnoxious as it gets, example being when you want to pass another car ? Play the boost button. Hopefully you'll be getting lots of moving violation tickets & get the thing convascated and impounded because your an illegal alien on public roadways.
28:36 finally seen the little non contrasting blinker left right horizontal arrows embossing on the friggin said blinker button why they didn't color it is again a huge fail on their part.
You should be able to install universal clamp on side mirrors, but it may get in the way of your hands. There may also be threading on the sides of the handlebars to accept threaded or an expanding type mirrors. I sold the scooter, and am not able to verify.
Got the old g30. And I must say it's quality built to last. This new one is def on my wish list
Nice. I appreciate the comment, Stuart.
Any scooter over 30 mph is fast! Fast enough for me anyway.
Agreed. This scooter feels very quick especially with the quick acceleration and torque.
Dog chase proof😂
Very expensive for electric scooter.!!!!!
Yes it is expensive

Would love one tbh have fun with yours 👍
Yeah, the price is pretty steep. It's a very large battery, which is why they included 2 chargers. Hit me up if you're ever by SFO.
The only 3 gripes that I have w/the GT2 are:
•Horn! 🤦🏾♂️ It’s so bad, they need to update that via the app w/a normal loud motorcycle horn!

@@ColinLeung No problem bro, indeed. Oh ok 👍🏾
1 more additional gripe….the turn signals only staying on for a few seconds….🤨🤨

Can you charge two ports at a time?
Yes, it's recommended to charge both at the same time to reduce the charge time.

You can adjust the connectors no?

It's advertised to have a max range of 56miles. I got around 20 miles with hard starts and stops, so I'd assume between 40-50 in eco mode.

Did you ever figure out how to switch from KPH to MPH?
Yes, it's shown here: th-cam.com/video/XvEwx4vOYyA/w-d-xo.html
I wasn't able to change it on the P65.
Colin can you tell me how the cruise control works. Is it only accessible via Bluetooth or can it be operated by using buttons on the scooter?
It can be operated by the button on the scooter. Twist the throttle to your desired speed, and press the cruise control button on the left and it will hold the speed. See video at 13:20. If you press the button again or brake then it will stop holding the speed.

Does anyone know how to activate sport plus, after I've activated it in the app? I can't get it above 35kph
Hello. Is it front or rear drive in 1WD mode? Does it affect range? What is its range at normal speed (30-40 km/h) without hard acceleration ? THx.
Hello, I sold the scooter so I can't confirm if it's FWD or RWD in 1WD. It should provide more range, and has a max range of 56mi.

if you remove the transparent plastic protector around the display you will have a better contrast, so no need to put tape arround the display.

By default the brake sensors kill the motor. I recall seeing an option to disable that function in the app, so you can use the brakes and throttle at the same time. Are you saying the scooter completely stalled, or the throttle function disabled until you released the brakes?
Man that’s a bad ass scooter. I’d definitely get it if I had 3k to spend like that. I’ll stick to a 1k scooter 😅
It is a nice scooter. Nothing wrong with a $1k scooter.
a dose of yutopiuh
so frustrating seeing all this gear and not be alowed to use it. amazing for uk to be so green minded
Thanks for the comment, Vasco. Are you referring to the motorcycle gear?
@@ColinLeung I meant the eletric scooter itself. I live in uk and it is illegal to use e scooter here...
@@vascobatista1011 Aww, sorry to hear that. I hope you're able to try an escooter out if you haven't already
just get out n ride i do mine goes 45mph just dont be a dik !!!!
and never listen to what the jews say just them looking free momey from the people
Same in Germany bro
Is the display too bright for night driving? Can it be dimmed?
I didn't find it to be too bright at night. Yes, you can adjust the brightness through the app.
Вопрос есть ли возможность заменить дисплей от GT1 на GT2
The display looks like the same part for both GT1 and GT2.

Fantastic video! I’ve been waiting forever to get a thorough review of this scooter. The only question I have is regarding the range, riding only on Eco, how far do you think you can go on this thing? Should be getting mine around August/September. Cheers!
Hello Christopher, thank you! It has an advertised range of 56mi (best case). That's dependent on rider weight, riding style, temp, type of road, if it's uphill/downhill, and battery charge/condition. I got less than half the range accelerating like crazy for the review and going uphill. I'd say you might get 40-50 miles on Eco mode if it's fairly flat. I hope this helps. It's really hard to say due to unknown factors.
All flat terrain, 220 lbs rider, single motor. ☺️
@@ColinLeung T hank you so much for the reply, imma probably make a TH-cam video at some point just for fun.
@@ColinLeung I’ll be super satisfied with 40 miles of range hands down, hopefully that’s what I’ll get. I need about 29 for my commute.
@@TaylorSwifty69 Sounds good. Let us know how it goes
Horrible. At least you are wearing a helmet but it is a DOT certified motorcycle helmet at least? What's the rest of your gear like? Is it motorcycle quality armor? That's why I say horrible. This thing is a death trap. Most people won't go out and spend 500 to 1000 dollars on motorcycle quality gear to ride these toys. Kids will ride them on the street near the curb like they do for bicycles as you can't ride them in traffic lanes. That's way too close to active traffic. There are no laws requiring real gear to ride these toys, no age restrictions, no licensing, no state checks for braking equipment, no insurance if you hurt someone riding one. These are a Bad Idea all around.
Thank you for your comment and I understand your concerns. The gear I was wearing was my typical motorcycle gear, which includes the Arai Quantum-X (DOT and Snell 2020 rated), Alpinestars track leather suit and Sidi boots. The scooter is rated for ages 14+, and the app forces you to watch a safety video and accept a liability prior to unlocking out of the ECO mode. While I agree that someone can get their hands on it by bypassing these restrictions that could be the same for a motorized scooter or motorcycle. It would be common sense to wear protection and ride to your own abilities.
Hey Karen, Freedom comes with responsibility. If you think the masses don't deserve free choice, and lately you cried tears of joy at the overturning of Roe V. Wade, you are at home in Afghanistan under the unkempt mullahs, in Saudi Arabia under Mohammed Bonesaw Salman, in China under Winnie the Pooh, etc.
Yea… I won’t be going above 25 mph without full body protection, including a proper helmet. Below 25 mph tho it’s hit or miss rather or not I’ll wear anything…
Police alert! 😹😹
@Divergent Droid either you are broke and cannot afford to buy a high performance electric kickscooter like this OR you have not ridden a high performance electric kickscooter yet. Either those two OR you are a complete ignorant. Commonsense dictates that using these high powered, high performance PEV's, a normal human being will equip themselves with the proper safety gear. I own a Dualtron X2 Up and I use my full motorcycle gear. And this is not a toy, its a mode of transportation. And there is no law that dictates what you can and cannot purchase with your own money. Buy what you want. No one cares. Insurance? Go get it insured. Simple solutions. SMH
mine does 35 miles range , 45mph , 18ah battery ,
i bought 2 of the same scooter mine rips up hills i paid 1800.00 pounnds for both of them TOTAL RANGE 70 MILES , ANY HILL CLIMB , 45MPH .
am good i will not be buying new scooter i have what i need.
That sounds like a great deal! This isn't for everyone, and I agree it is more on the expensive side. Segway has to cover R&D, marketing, branding, support, profit and other misc costs.
Wich scooter u have?
@@sewiim3612 envirorides p1+
Excellent report. Thanks
You're welcome. Have a great day!
Hey Colin, would love to watch your review on the P100S as it is the middle one between p65 and gt2. Any plans on doing that? And I wonder why p100s is the most difficult scooter for you to obtain compared to p65 and the gt2
Hello Kobe, thanks for the comment. I do not plan to review the P100s unless Segway sends me one. Due to the high price tag I do not intend to purchase one myself for review. I was lucky enough to be sent the P65 and GT2.
I own p100s. Great machine. Love my GT2 also. For the value P100 is way to go
@jmp622 Can you compare the suspension quality of the two? Obviously gt2 is better but how does the p100s suspension match up and what's the range in drive mode
@@kobebrooks3179 p100s is stable and does job. GT2 is top notch
That's about accurate top speed. I get 75.6kms per hour top speed with my gt2.
Just got it and I'm loving it ! 👍 I love to use It late at night so no traffic. 😁👍
Awesome. Thanks for sharing, Bryce!
So I’m looking forward to maybe for Christmas getting the Segway GT 2 & GT11
Thanks for the great review!
Thank you, Ken!
darn this is more expensive than my R3. I still want one though.
Yeah.. each has it's own uses. The R3 seems more useful, is quicker and can on the freeway. The GT2 can be taken on public transportation and does not need to be registered or insured.
@@ColinLeung You are so lucky to be able to get to review these amazing products. believe it or not I am more scared riding the Varla eagle one than my R3, I just ordered the P100S (backer #70), but dang I will definitely get this one soon as segway release it in their site. I'm a sucker for segway products, I have 3 kids and they love their G30 and ninebots. P100S and hopefully GT2 will be mine only lol.
@@juanchopapa3286 Yeah, I'm grateful for the opportunity to review the scooters. Oh nice. Let us know how you like the P100S. It seems better than the P65 with the suspension.
Nice motorcycle.
Thanks!
Nice video! Bravo 👏
Thank you!
Cool!
Thanks!
Thanks for review. Didn't know you could limit the battery charge and boost mode only worked in race mode and it limits you when you 1st get it. I have ordered mine a few months ago I can't wait to get mine. Only a month-ish before they are in North America.
You're welcome. I'm glad you found it helpful
Wheres your p65 video?
Its unlisted th-cam.com/video/pMAf1UUb-jI/w-d-xo.html
I took it down. The company that's letting me review it told me to make some changes to the specs, so I need to reupload it. It'll be up again later this week.
@@ColinLeung will u also review the p100?
@@sewiim3612 I do not plan to at the moment since I do not have access to the p100. Perhaps in the future if someone lets me review one!
Looks like you were on a slight downhill while hitting those speeds. Was it flat or slightly going downward? Good video!
It was slightly downhill when I hit 45. I've hit 44 on flat.
He noted that it was in the video.
1:34 ,Confusing part is when you were talking about signal light button & the glaring display,on the signal light you said & you cannot press this ? Down ? Well how the hell is one supposed to signal when you can't press a signal light button & said glaring screen you claimed l don't think it's not warranted not putting said piece of cardboard on ????? Getting too overdone & making things more complicated than they need to be,the best things in life are the most simple. So that means your not the best nor simple. Period
I have more problems with the 4" crackes in the rodeway than i do with scewters
hi 👋
Hi Clare!
Crazy question....what is the expected carnage if you hit the pavement at 45 mph? That seems fairly extreme.
You can get seriously hurt. I'd suggest wearing protection, which is why I wore my motorcycle gear in the video.
Really bro, nobody wants to see you go through the literature.
Thanks for the comment. Some people lose their manual and want to reference it, but you're always welcome to skip the content.
Great review! Why didnt you remove the screen cover. Looks so much better without the cover!
Honestly I didn't know it could be removed until after I filmed. The reviewing company asked me to record footage with it removed.
What you could have said is Slide either left or right to do a signal light button blink not press said button because it's not built to press & there's zero icons that area just one boring looking round blob button that's completely blank on what's it's there for you and them combined just made a bad situation worse, thank God the other two control function round dial buttons have actual white on grey icon script why they left out script for said blinker is a super fail. Period
15:53 definitely looks like again a push rather than a slide on the blinker button, but I don't care l just came from reserving for early 2024 a VSETT 10+ with the car like Huge central display for $2500.00CAD & shipping TBD.
Very dumb these are not legal on public roads currently ,why your spewing out like they are is obnoxious as it gets, example being when you want to pass another car ? Play the boost button. Hopefully you'll be getting lots of moving violation tickets & get the thing convascated and impounded because your an illegal alien on public roadways.
29:43 ,Rolling start is what it's called , Not how you spewed out like say you're already going ? Going where ?
28:36 finally seen the little non contrasting blinker left right horizontal arrows embossing on the friggin said blinker button why they didn't color it is again a huge fail on their part.
Depressive review ever
Nah it's a good review boss
Ur more then happy to buy a dualtron victor and match his power lol
Any spaces on the handle bar for installing the mirrors?
You should be able to install universal clamp on side mirrors, but it may get in the way of your hands. There may also be threading on the sides of the handlebars to accept threaded or an expanding type mirrors. I sold the scooter, and am not able to verify.
