One thing I will add is that tire pressure is key. A lot of people don't realize you need to stay on top of this, and this makes a massive difference in performance.
Please be AWARE! BE happy with the 30kph if you have a 2022 production model. I changed the region, but wanted more acceleration. So I downloaded scooter Hacking utility as well. The app recommended a software downgrade. Unfortunately I tried to downgrade the new controller. My scooter was bricked immediately. Be happy with the 30kph, dont downgrade the software!
@@TheWannabeGeek Then you are extremely lucky. All the new Controllers will instantly be bricked if you attempt a downgrade. The only way to know if you have the new version is to open the scooter up. The new controller looks totally different to the older version.
@@TheWannabeGeek My apologies for taking so long to reply. I missed your post notification. Here is the link. I purchaded a USB to TLL converter. Will try to reload the factory software that way. Not much on the web for this new controller. Here is a youtube video showing the new unit. th-cam.com/video/QZSomJXzeE4/w-d-xo.html
bricked? i have MAX G30E II and when i changed region aka serial with xiao flasher it froze my scooter and couldnt log into the main app but when i used the xiao flash to change it back to my own serial it started working normally and the app works...so new g30 cannot be hacked

Hello i purchased my ninebot scooter from a local pawn shop. When i connect it to the app it says it’s bind with a previous owner. Do you have any recommendations on how I can unbind it or reset it to where I can be the owner?
Whomever is reading this remember to spread as much LOVE AS POSSIBLE, don't litter, help out the homeless and take care of nature please it's really important we gotta take care of eachother and mother earth. thank you and have a blessed life ❤
I've always gave homeless food, money. Anything that I have, even though I was just a kid without job. Until now, I'm already 21 y/o. I'd rather help those in need than die without helping.
Hello, l download the app but it's not allowing me to change the region of the scooter. I'm selecting US region but after watching the advert the scooter is blips 3 times and keep shows DE which is 20kmh. Would you be able to help me please.
Hey man, i was trying the germany mode and now, i am stuck with it, i can't change to US anymore and my scooter is only going 20 anymore, need help ASAP!

So I have the E22E. I download the app I did all the spets and the scooter ride more than 20kph. Then I try to establish the manufacturer settings and all good. But I noticed my SE changed and my app features changed too. Now I am stuck and quite worried because I don't know what I have to do. Can someone help me please?
hello, thanks for the video! does this mean that it will only go to selected top speed IF the android app is connected to the scooter? the android phone must be on you for this speed upgrade to work?
hello a question. I live in the Netherlands but after the update I no longer have cruise control. Which country should I put it on now to get cruise control back and just keep 25 km per hour?
Hey there Brian. Thanks for reaching out. You can set it to the boost option which I believe is a new option in the app and is at the bottom of the list. Try that and let me know how yo go. Feel free to reach out via email.
So when u change region u don't have to flash zip file? So basically all u have to do is connect scooter than change region to us 30km and technically should work?
Hi there Just wondering what generation motor you have? As the gen 1 ( first serial number is 6Z) motor throttles down after 80% battery without using the hack. Just wondering if yours is a Gen 1 (6Z) or a Gen 2 (9J), the serial number is located on the rear motor. Thanks a lot
@@tibbysun hey there Tim. Sorry to hear that. It seems more like a power output issue vs a top speed. I am looking at another type of hack. I don't believe that this is a serial number issue though.
Hey there Jaime. As the batteries begin to drain it will lose lower and slow down. How we it will do this no matter what. The longevity of it is fine. I did this hack quiet a while ago and still have Great success with it.
Hey Jaimee. No problem. In the app if you go again there should be an option for another boost. I can’t remember the exact terminology, however I only used it for a friend of mine who had the same issue. It worked for him and he is now getting the 30km/h. So instead of selecting the US 30km/h boost, try the bottom speed boost option. This is only new since I did that video. I’ll have to do another one to refresh 😀
Hey mate do you have the first gen or second gen motor? The first gen will start with a 6 on the serial number on the back wheel, & the second gen will start with a 9...

Hey there John. U can revert back to the settings that you had via that app, this won't flash your stock settings, it just changes the region settings.
Hi man, great vid, was the most informative and well explained i could find. Any chance your making part 2? You talk about it but cant find any. Would love to see the other options off the app.

Great question Rex. I haven’t tried it with the LE variant. How regret have a similar main board and should work for you. If you could give it a go and let me know would be great.
I tried that and it didn’t work. Mine recently had a battery change and since the new battery was put in, the fastest it’ll go is 20km/h. Any suggestions?
I was told it is possible to turn disable the kick to start mode if you hack into the 9bot.. do you know how to do this or could you do a video showing how to do this?
Thanks for watching and reaching out Brodie. There should be a new setting on the app down the bottom of the list called boost. Try that setting instead. Hope this helps.
Great question Rico. However, you don’t need the android after you have hacked it. The hack holds and will remain until you change it via the android app.
Why thei have limited dis model to 25 km? I just didn. T get it , it looks like great scooter... So why? For Range?. Iv got a Es3 what i have got on a good price afew monts ago and his normal speed in sport mode (Red S) is 30km/h minus plus 1 depend of battery and outside temperature. I. M going to flash my ninebot to, hope he will not die :( or destroi the range or the electric motor i. L go for 35,36 km/h. What do you thinck about that ? 🙂
The app doesn't work dear... I don't know what is the problem, the app can see the scooter however when I get inside it doesn't recognise the scooter and got disconnected. Can you please check it if still working or not?
Hey there guys I have checked it is working for mine . Check to see if there is an update available to do on the seaway app and try again let me know how you go
Hi there David. That is interesting. It should be doing at least 30 without anyone on it for sure. I know this may sound like a stupid question. Did u restart the scooter immediately after? Feel free to contact me direct via Telegram on this link The Geek Tribe🤓 This channel is for the average person, with an above average interest in all things Tech t.me/thegeektribe
My scooter is not working because of this it is stuck in “limited to 20 smth” and my light wont turn off when the scooter is on the scooter itself wont accelerate even if its on the speed numbers just keep blinking. Is there a way to reset all of this?
One question to you. If i hack my ninebot maxg30 is there any options to optimize the range? I want to have optim range.other words i like to have the best range to go farthest. If the topspeed drop a bit thats ok because i think the range is more important to me. Thanks for the answer
Hey there JH. I don’t believe that there is a way to optimise the range using this hack. There maybe a way utilising a different hack tool which will change the power output, however, still give you the top speed. I haven’t been successful using this hack yet.
Hi there my friend, apologies for the long time to respond. My suggestions would be to do a firmware update and see if you can then run the process via the app again.
Hey there James. Yes, there is a Hack to allow you to take off from 0mph of km/h. However, that is a different process. I have tried various different types of hacks and my firmware has not allowed me to do it yet. Once I am successful, I will post it on here as well. Thanks for watching.
@@stiane1062 This is very true and also works.. It is a bit of fun to pull a prank with family and friends wanting to ride the scooter and putting it into these modes!
I just followed these instructions and my Max says it’s in US Region with 30kph but I still can’t get more than 25kph like it’s still in Worldwide Region. I gave a donation too. Any ideas?

Will this work on the new Max g2 scooter? And if it does and I use an android tablet to unlock it can I then use my iPhone from then on? Great video mate
Hi looks like a great advantage. Still, its not working with me :( The app connects, and I'm able to.change to us30. But it wont ride 30.. and everytime a put my phone on screenlock it seems to disconnect with bluetooth.. I think the original app has to stay off? Help
Quick question do you need internet for this or is it just through Bluetooth? So if I get stopped by the police can I change it right away in the app. Or do I need to be connected to the internet?
Haha. Hey there Matty. Thanks heaps. Really appreciate your kind words. I am making one this week. I have been so flat out with everything COVID-19 it's actually made my work life very busy. Anyway coming out the other side. Hopefully you will see more content this week. Have an awesome week. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for watching Tony. Hope you enjoyed the video. 😊 Not sure who the snowflake is lol. Anyway, greatly appreciate you stopping by. Love life, Live the dream.
I guess it's just about someone hacking the software. The Max can definitely do 35 km/h or even more as the M365 Pro can do 35 km/h. I think I'll buy the Max when it can do over 35 km/h ;)
Hey there Akseli. I have tried a couple of versions. I haven't been successful. I will continue to try and get this other hack to work. It's a firmware issue from what I have seen. Thanks for watching though. Really appreciate it.
The Wannabe Geek Nevermind, I did some research and it seems like 33km/h is hardware limited. I found some people in a Discord server starting to do battery voltage upgrades to achieve higher speeds.
Hi Khalid. There is a new option on the app mow to give it a boost for those that cannot get to 30km/h. I think it specifies that in the very bottom option. Sorry it has been a while since I have done the hack. Let me know how you go. I may be able to email u some details if it won’t work. 😊. Thanks heaps for watching.
Hey Bo. The G30D has a default of 20km/h so by activating this hack it will allow it to do 30km/h. Are u in Germany? If so, there is another setting you can do that will keep you protected if pulled over by the police 😁
Hi, Geek! What kind of setup are you talking about to protect yourself if the police stop you? I need it because I live in Germany. I would be very grateful if you would give me a link to this setting. thank you in advance.
Hey there Alessio. This Hack won't affect your official firmware. This just opens up the regional settings to allow the full maximum speed via the regional settings. There is a further hack that can be done, and it may affect the firmware, as it makes changes to motor power out-puts etc.
@@TheWannabeGeek wonderful, thanks a lot. I'll try this tomorrow because I'm very curious. I learnt about the firmware hack, I'll wait the next video to ask you more questions. Bye 😉👍🏻
@@TheWannabeGeek I tried it today, I think the battery lowering faster than before, but it's quite obvious. With full charge I reach 30km/h. It's not bad without change firmware and the battery pack. I'll try this for the next weeks, probably I'll keep it like this. Thanks again.
MAX G30E II cannot be hacked...if you change the region aka serial it stops working and the main app wont work...change it back to your original serial and it does work normally again
Great Vid. I’m located in the UK and about to spend the cash on one of these machines. Given the choice which option is best to buy Gen1 or 2? Surely more torque is more desirable?
Hey Paul. Thanks for watching and glad u enjoyed the vid. Gen2 would be the one I would go for. I always lean towards the newer version. You may need to select a different option on the app. Reach out if you have any trouble.
Thanks for this video. Eventhough this seems not to effect warrenty, I am not sure if this android software can change the serial also to original one when you revert the changes. Because when you open the speed limit it changes the serial. That time the serial on the scooter and at the original software does not match. And one more info related with that. For example you did 1000 km with original setup. Then remove the speed limit. At that time you have the reconnect scooter with the original app again and you see that now it seems a new scooter and all kms done before was deleted.
Hey there Met. On this particular hack this will not change any of the serial or firmware settings. All it does is open it up to the global settings. Places like Europe and Australia limit the speed to 25km/h this allows these locations to bypass. Thanks heaps for watching.
Hey there. Thanks for watching. I have tried another way. However cannot get it to work properly and there is a risk of motor burnout due to the change required in the motor output. I’ll keep looking.
The speed in which this guy gets to telling us about the hack is what the real problem is here. I'll go 18mph for now so I don't have to wait for this guy all day to tell me about it
Thanks James. Please note that there is a timestamp in the description for those who don't appreciate my humour 😁also to note, most countries outside North America have legal restrictions and will not allow the 18mph hence the hack I have provided here. Thanks for watching. Hope to see you back.
hey thanks mate👍 i just ordered the max like 2hours ago and heard a couple of crap reviews regarding no suspension ruining the ride..i got a touch of dread but your video put me back in the "cant wait for it to arrive" mode so cheers for the vid🙏 it is worth it tho yeah??
Haydes Graham Hey there Hayden. I have never experienced the problem that you’re speaking of. I am a larger guy as well, but this hasn’t worried me at all. You’re seriously going to love it... I loved mine so much we bought a second one for the my wife. The kids love it as well.
As a owner with a hacked max the ride isn't as bad as made out don't get me wrong you will shake your brain about your skull on a gravel road but most average roads it's quite comfortable. If you have slight bend in your knees you can make your self into natural suspension
One thing I will add is that tire pressure is key. A lot of people don't realize you need to stay on top of this, and this makes a massive difference in performance.
100% agree. I am looking at mine weekly. Thanks for watching Alex.

Hey there I believe it will damage the motor. That’s why I haven’t done it myself. Thank for watching.
I changed the speed to 20km on the App and now it won't let me change it back to 25 or 30km?
Try letting it go completely flat, alternatively U may need to disconnect the battery and try again. Hope this works.
Thank You I Will Give That A Go Cheers

G'day my ninebot f65e comes up with custom serial the only box I can tick??? Can u help
Hi! Did you post the fourth step on your account? I'm in the US and I'm dying to go just a little faster!
Once it’s set to 30 does it remain at 30 even if connected with different phone
Hey there Phoenix. Absolutely does remain.
Once U do the hack. It wi remain until U change it.
say you have an iPhone but use the android to hack it do you need to bring the android whenever you use the scooter
Great question Rico. However, you don’t need the android after you have hacked it. The hack holds and will remain until you change it via the android app.
Thanks for the video, ive got an e22, will this work, is it reversable, and does it effect warranty?. Thanks again
Hey Dan. Thanks for watching. I honestly don’t know. However can do a little research on it for you.
This doesn't change any of the firmware or allow bugs viruses to be installed it just changes the region settings .
Why thei have limited dis model to 25 km? I just didn. T get it , it looks like great scooter... So why? For Range?.
Iv got a Es3 what i have got on a good price afew monts ago and his normal speed in sport mode (Red S) is 30km/h minus plus 1 depend of battery and outside temperature.
I. M going to flash my ninebot to, hope he will not die :( or destroi the range or the electric motor i. L go for 35,36 km/h.
What do you thinck about that ? 🙂
Hey there. The scooters are limited for various geographic regions due to local laws and legislation. 😊
It's law. In German we have limit 20km/h. Because of es4 i need to pay now 800 euro...
The app doesn't work dear... I don't know what is the problem, the app can see the scooter however when I get inside it doesn't recognise the scooter and got disconnected.
Can you please check it if still working or not?
Hey there. Thanks for sharing. I’ll check it on my scooter in the next 24-48 hours. Thanks for watching.
@@TheWannabeGeek same issue for me.
Hey there guys I have checked it is working for mine . Check to see if there is an update available to do on the seaway app and try again let me know how you go
@@TheWannabeGeek will check and give you feedback
Hi I have tried this hack but my scooter only shows 28km as the max speed with no one on it .. am I missing something?
Hi there David. That is interesting. It should be doing at least 30 without anyone on it for sure. I know this may sound like a stupid question. Did u restart the scooter immediately after? Feel free to contact me direct via Telegram on this link The Geek Tribe🤓
This channel is for the average person, with an above average interest in all things Tech
t.me/thegeektribe
@@TheWannabeGeek I have the same problem. I did everything exactly as you said and max speed that screen shows is 28km/h
By changing the speed on the scooter does that drain the battery faster? Cuz I know the main top speed is 18.6 and lasts 40 miles on a full charge
My scooter's battery goes rip twice as fast
im still whaiting for the 4th way ... i wanna go faster than 30kmph
Hey there Luciano, I do apologise. I did post back I actually didn’t do step 4... I have been trying to get another hack to work. Apologies :)
My scooter is not working because of this it is stuck in “limited to 20 smth” and my light wont turn off when the scooter is on the scooter itself wont accelerate even if its on the speed numbers just keep blinking. Is there a way to reset all of this?
One question to you. If i hack my ninebot maxg30 is there any options to optimize the range? I want to have optim range.other words i like to have the best range to go farthest. If the topspeed drop a bit thats ok because i think the range is more important to me. Thanks for the answer
Hey there JH. I don’t believe that there is a way to optimise the range using this hack. There maybe a way utilising a different hack tool which will change the power output, however, still give you the top speed. I haven’t been successful using this hack yet.
Hi mate I tried and it's only going to 28 max and does it depend on the battery level?
Do you have any solutions
Hi there my friend, apologies for the long time to respond. My suggestions would be to do a firmware update and see if you can then run the process via the app again.
Can this be hacked to make it usuable without stepping? Meaning that you dont have to step the first meters to go riding?
Hey there James. Yes, there is a Hack to allow you to take off from 0mph of km/h. However, that is a different process. I have tried various different types of hacks and my firmware has not allowed me to do it yet.
Once I am successful, I will post it on here as well.
Thanks for watching.
@@TheWannabeGeek thanks for posting and your reply!
@@Fanatiekeling747 no worries at all. Have a great week.
Great video! Just small question if you can answer but i think it's obvious, it works alorswith ninebot V30 D versions?
Hey there Esmaeil. Thanks for watching. Yes I do believe that it will work with the V30 D versions.
Thanks again for watching.
Hi, it does not work :( there was a firmware update and they might blocked?

@@stiane1062
Thank you.
And will it work on both G30 and G30D?
Have you tried it?
@@stiane1062 This is very true and also works.. It is a bit of fun to pull a prank with family and friends wanting to ride the scooter and putting it into these modes!
Apologies I didn't get back to you earlier Thomas. However "IPUTEGGINMYLAMP" has answered correctly
I just followed these instructions and my Max says it’s in US Region with 30kph but I still can’t get more than 25kph like it’s still in Worldwide Region. I gave a donation too. Any ideas?
Same issue for me.
I have a ninebot g30 max and changing the region to US and reconnecting the scooter still not letting me go over 25km/h.
Hey there Peter, have you tried to reboot the scooter? Sometimes that will work.
Yeah, i did that, i will give a try tomorrow again. I will charge the battery to 100% but today when i was trying, battery was on about 70%
Peter Kertesz thanks for letting me know. I’ll have a look at mine ASAP.
for me i cant change the region how do i fix it
Hey there. Are u able to follow the other steps and it is connected to your scooter? Pls feel free to reach out via Twitter @wannabegeek1 and DM me there.
@@TheWannabeGeek yes its connected and everything but there is no option to change the region
Hey, thanks for getting back to me. If you want, message me on Twitter and we can try to connect and work it out this week.
@@TheWannabeGeek ok
Do you need that app connected whilst riding for it to do 30km?
Hey there Colin. Not at all. Once you have done the hack it remains the same. Unless you select one of the revert options for Germany.
@@TheWannabeGeek yep! Just done a test ride and it's spot on
Does this hack work on the older ES2 version as I see yours has the yellow trim and mine has the older red trim.
Hi, im from Indonesia,
Is that hack suitable for Global only or China too?? In some reference updatin dont work for Ninebot max China.
Hey there. Yes. This should work for you no matter what country.
How about for the ninebot ES1, any hack for that model?
Hey there T Man. I honestly don't know. However can do a little bit of research on some of the message boards I am in.

Thank you xFuglen. I have learned a lesson on this video. 😊 I do appreciate you watching. Have a great week.
Hello Geek,
Tried to scroll and find the question for my F40E (‘21)
Also possible with same app?
Thx in advance
Hey there Kialdajo. I’m not sure if it is possible. Have tried looking into myself. Will speed to a few of my fellow scooter buddies.
@@TheWannabeGeek thx in advance
The app doesn't work in Australia. Even paid the donation rather than watch the 1 hr ad to get it free on the app. Waste of money and a bummer!
Hey Pete. I’m in Australia. I have used it on multiple scooters. What version is your scooter on?
@@TheWannabeGeek in the app? 5.3.
Hey Pete. Yea. With the App on the video.
I am working on a new one as well. Could be a couple of week away yet.
@@TheWannabeGeek look forward to one that works. Let me know when it is operational please.
does anyone know what it means when i connect my ninebot max g30 to xiomflasher, it will say region: unkown?
Hi looks like a great advantage. Still, its not working with me :( The app connects, and I'm able to.change to us30. But it wont ride 30.. and everytime a put my phone on screenlock it seems to disconnect with bluetooth.. I think the original app has to stay off? Help
Quick question do you need internet for this or is it just through Bluetooth? So if I get stopped by the police can I change it right away in the app. Or do I need to be connected to the internet?
Hey Nuts. No need for the internet.
i tried it on segway g2 max but the speed decreased to 15 km how can i fix this please back to orginal
hi if i do the hack on android then move over to ios will the setings still be on the scoter
Hey there Tom. Yes. The hack will remain in place.
Hi Bro. The warranty is lost with that hack? thx ansver...
Not at all, you can actually change the setting back at any time.
My scooter region is unknown and I can’t change it 10:55
Ignore haters, you have great charisma and personality which makes your videos very watchable.
Hope you will make more videos soon.
Haha. Hey there Matty. Thanks heaps. Really appreciate your kind words.

When the video for who wants to go faster than 30 kph???
Hey Riccardo. I am still working on this one. Will get it posted ASAP. thanks for watching and asking.
@@TheWannabeGeek I'm looking forward to that one too!
I guess it's just about someone hacking the software. The Max can definitely do 35 km/h or even more as the M365 Pro can do 35 km/h. I think I'll buy the Max when it can do over 35 km/h ;)
Hey there Akseli. I have tried a couple of versions. I haven't been successful. I will continue to try and get this other hack to work. It's a firmware issue from what I have seen. Thanks for watching though. Really appreciate it.
The Wannabe Geek Nevermind, I did some research and it seems like 33km/h is hardware limited. I found some people in a Discord server starting to do battery voltage upgrades to achieve higher speeds.
So...what if you have an iPhone? I don’t have the google play store...
Hey there. Yes,you need a an Android device for this to work. Sorry, I am unsure of an iOS alternative.
Hello, Nice video but if i do it give me 28 en when i ride with it is 25/26km/h i can do it on 33 have you tips for me.sincerely.
Hi Khalid. There is a new option on the app mow to give it a boost for those that cannot get to 30km/h. I think it specifies that in the very bottom option. Sorry it has been a while since I have done the hack. Let me know how you go. I may be able to email u some details if it won’t work. 😊. Thanks heaps for watching.
@@TheWannabeGeek thx Brother i wil try it.
No worries. If you can’t get it to work. I’ll record a quick screen recording and send it to you.

Hi mate. Any chance i can hack Ninebot F40a with iPhone?
anyone knows, if the hack works on ninebot max g30d ?
Hey Bo. The G30D has a default of 20km/h so by activating this hack it will allow it to do 30km/h. Are u in Germany? If so, there is another setting you can do that will keep you protected if pulled over by the police 😁
Hi, Geek! What kind of setup are you talking about to protect yourself if the police stop you? I need it because I live in Germany. I would be very grateful if you would give me a link to this setting. thank you in advance.
The speed that shows at the scooter is not real, I made some tests and 30km/h is actually 27.8km/h...
Hey there Baiev. Thanks for watching.
The speed tests I have done myself are similar to what is displayed.
It’s not out by much.
Thanks for watching.
My SE changed and now I don't know what I can do to turn back. Can u please help?
Hi, does this work on a ninebot g2 max ?
Does this work with the ninebot f40 as well? Thanks!
Hi there. Thanks for watching. I’m no too sure to be honest.
hi can this be done for e45 ninebot scooter?
Very interesting, my question is: After the hack you can't get official firmware anymore, right?
Hey there Alessio. This Hack won't affect your official firmware. This just opens up the regional settings to allow the full maximum speed via the regional settings. There is a further hack that can be done, and it may affect the firmware, as it makes changes to motor power out-puts etc.
@@TheWannabeGeek wonderful, thanks a lot. I'll try this tomorrow because I'm very curious. I learnt about the firmware hack, I'll wait the next video to ask you more questions. Bye 😉👍🏻
All the best. Let me know how u go.
@@TheWannabeGeek I tried it today, I think the battery lowering faster than before, but it's quite obvious. With full charge I reach 30km/h. It's not bad without change firmware and the battery pack. I'll try this for the next weeks, probably I'll keep it like this. Thanks again.
I do have a iPhone what should I do
Hi there Kirz. You will need access to an Android device to enable this hack.
Does this reduce the range
Range will be affected with higher speed. However not too much.
Dont mind joking, thanks for the video, you had me at : you will need the scooter, without him, there is no hack :)
Greatly appreciate you stopping by and watching Ivan. Thank you.
MAX G30E II cannot be hacked...if you change the region aka serial it stops working and the main app wont work...change it back to your original serial and it does work normally again
Great Vid. I’m located in the UK and about to spend the cash on one of these machines. Given the choice which option is best to buy Gen1 or 2? Surely more torque is more desirable?
Hey Paul. Thanks for watching and glad u enjoyed the vid. Gen2 would be the one I would go for. I always lean towards the newer version. You may need to select a different option on the app. Reach out if you have any trouble.
Cheers Buddy. Will Do. 👍🏽
Does this ruin the warranty
Not that I am aware of as this just changes the global region which is within the firmware.
The Wannabe Geek thank you
Thanks for this video. Eventhough this seems not to effect warrenty, I am not sure if this android software can change the serial also to original one when you revert the changes. Because when you open the speed limit it changes the serial. That time the serial on the scooter and at the original software does not match. And one more info related with that. For example you did 1000 km with original setup. Then remove the speed limit. At that time you have the reconnect scooter with the original app again and you see that now it seems a new scooter and all kms done before was deleted.
Hey there Met. On this particular hack this will not change any of the serial or firmware settings.
All it does is open it up to the global settings. Places like Europe and Australia limit the speed to 25km/h this allows these locations to bypass.
Thanks heaps for watching.
how do I make it go faster than 30km/h
Hey there. Thanks for watching. I have tried another way. However cannot get it to work properly and there is a risk of motor burnout due to the change required in the motor output. I’ll keep looking.
The speed in which this guy gets to telling us about the hack is what the real problem is here. I'll go 18mph for now so I don't have to wait for this guy all day to tell me about it
Thanks James. Please note that there is a timestamp in the description for those who don't appreciate my humour 😁also to note, most countries outside North America have legal restrictions and will not allow the 18mph hence the hack I have provided here. Thanks for watching. Hope to see you back.
hey thanks mate👍 i just ordered the max like 2hours ago and heard a couple of crap reviews regarding no suspension ruining the ride..i got a touch of dread but your video put me back in the "cant wait for it to arrive" mode so cheers for the vid🙏 it is worth it tho yeah??
Haydes Graham Hey there Hayden. I have never experienced the problem that you’re speaking of. I am a larger guy as well, but this hasn’t worried me at all. You’re seriously going to love it... I loved mine so much we bought a second one for the my wife. The kids love it as well.
As a owner with a hacked max the ride isn't as bad as made out don't get me wrong you will shake your brain about your skull on a gravel road but most average roads it's quite comfortable. If you have slight bend in your knees you can make your self into natural suspension
Cool feature bro! Is the battery affected by the hack?
This will cause battery to drain faster simply because you are using more power. Long term, this definitely COULD shorten the life of your battery.
Can you do this with the f40a? Ninebot?
