I like this, here in the Netherlands it is a Moped / Scooter and is allowed in bigger bike lines. Speed and Range is not really and issue for me. And going faster then 45Km/H is even not allowed and can mean that your license is taken away.
And I love that it doesn't look like a Scooter
Je mag 50 km met geel kenteken en 35 met blauw
@@gerrievanboven3449 Da's dus niet helemaal waar.
De Super Soco TC is een brommer (ofwel bromfiets) volgens de Nederlandse wet. Die zijn bij diezelfde wet allemaal begrensd op 45 km/u.
Op de rijbaan, binnen de bebouwde kom is de maximum snelheid 45 km/u (met uitzondering van wegen in een 30 km/u zone, waar vanzelfsprekend de maximum snelheid 30 km/u is voor alle weggebruikers).
Op het fiets/brommerpad binnen de bebouwde kom is de maximum snelheid 30 km/u.
Op het fiets/brommerpad buiten de bebouwde kom is de maximum snelheid 40 km/u.
Zou de Super Soco TC een snorfiets zijn, dan zou deze een blauw kenteken dragen, en de maximum snelheid van het voertuig begrensd zijn op 25 km/u.
Omdat een snorfiets niet sneller kan dan een fietser die (érg) stevig doortrapt gelden hiervoor geen afwijkende snelheids limieten dan de begrenzing van 25 km/u die al bestaat.
Picks up the kids from school? How many can you get on it?? 😆 Great little review. Thanks.
This is genuinely one of the best reviews I've seen about this #ElectricMotorcycle Great stuff! More videos about the ones from Super Soco please!
Spoton pal. I was looking at the TS but now the power seems better on the TC love that style easy 12 m8le commute it should be ideal 👍
Hi Chris, any idea how much power is used charging the bAttery? Are you able to share the chargers specs?
Charger is 90V-240VAC Charging time is 6.5-7.5 hours
GTA 5 Motorcycle Club music lol
Nice bike
can you order these in the states?
How one from the us can get one???
Beautiful city.. scenic roads..may I know the name of area please?
Eltham and surrounds.
Is this thing approved for Learners on the Automatic transmission license in NSW, Australia?
I'm unsure, sorry. I would guess given its limited top speed, and gentle acceleration.
Not in NSW or Victoria.
@@footscorn right.
maybe i missed it. how heavy is max load? is it good for long rides around 150km?
I can’t hear how much max speed? Can you by pass speed?
Surprised you didnt mention anything about the noise (or lack thereof) given the electric engine.
"Picks up the kids from school" lol
Is the bike fast enough in real world use? 50% charge, maybe bit cooler out etc. Using the faster speed selection. I love the bike and want it, but am worried it won't have enough pep. No I won't be using it on any highways or long travel, just to commute around town yet still am wondering if will require to go to the TC Max. I don't want to be in regular lane and to have cars needing to pass me consistantly. Let me know guys thanks!! Otherwise a damn good looking bike for the price.
It's okay (think 80-100cc), but nothing like a 200-300cc petrol equivalent.
Can you ride Super Soco Cux, Ts and Tc with AM category?
yeah they're limited to 45km/h
If you find this short for someone at 5'7 I think this is way too small for me at 6'3
Definitely would be.
We have YY-PACK-SOCO-TS/TC-60V36AH, YY-PACK-SOCO-TS/TC-60V48AH, YY-PACK-SOCO-TS/TC-60V57.6AH, YY-PACK-SOCO-TS/TC- 60V60AH Lithium battery for SOCO.
I think the bigger 'Max' model is better, the 50kmh speed limit is too low, too many major streets that you need 60kmh to travel on.
id not park it outside regardless if it has removable battery or not....
I have the ts pro 2017 model i get 80km/h and 60 km of range its got a 2400w motor.
Thank... you... for... the... review.
Recommend to a learner? I was considering this bike for my L’s.
can I drive this on a nz learner's car lisence
Best model is Italian model PS from Piccoli Motors, best price and range.
Are there any electric cars, trucks or motorcycles made in Australia ?
Not to my knowledge. Imported variants, assembled here (SA), but nothing like what Ford or Holden used to have.
I think there are a few small off-road type EV bike companies
Yes, the Fonzerelli.
Is there anything electric made outside of China
Do you need a driving license to drive it on the road? Insurance? (Cost)
Yes, as its registered with Vic Roads (etc). Insurance would be cheap given its price point.
Somewhat looking to get my bike licence tax time..
Thought I might suss out Ev bikes. This video is a year old now has your opinion changed??
My main question is, what drivers licence is needed in Western Australia.
Not sure sorry.
Can I ride this at 16 in the uk?
Yeah, but you have to take the AM category
Do i need a motorcycle license or driver license to drive this
In Victoria, yes. I believe only the NT doesn't require a motorbike license.
Aimed at the deliveroo/uber eats market?
See their new cargo model, that's specifically aimed at delivery riders.
uber hiv
How much is an other battery?
Not sure sorry
Most people buy them from AliExpress. Since some months there is also a battery available with double the capacity. So you can actually buy two, put them both in the TC and should be able to get around 250km range, which is a significant boost
@@Seitenwerk wheres the link to this battery, buddy? id love to get my hands on one :)
It looks like a triumph
It looks similar to indian ebike revolt rv400
how do you charge it?
You'd get a charging cable to plug in at home
A trick to get rid of the dry mouth sounds is to eat a green apple before recording
How about quality? Chinese???
Good build quality from what I’ve heard
Has anyone tryed modify these
All the time - look up speed unlock.
@@chrisvanderstock mean modify controller battery etc
@@applesthompson863 I'm looking into buying this motor with the intentions of swapping out the battery for sure with a higher capacity one and perhaps putting in a higher rated motor.
This really needs English subtitles...
Thanks for the review though please wear motorcycle gloves (and better gear generally) on tests as inexperienced or new riders are watching......
Maximum speed ?
Unlocked mine goes about 65kph. I'd assume a smaller and lighter person would be able to reach 70kph+
But the range.... It drops dramatically if driving it full throttle unlocked... Talking about 25-30km per charge...
The newer TC-Max model does 60mph.
Doesn't matter, a kid on a tweaked 50 is gonna laugh as he overtakes you. And the tc max, at 102kmh, takes an hour to do it. They are a pathetically under powered. Built for the Asian Market where bikes are very limited for power etc by law,.
It’s an unrestricted 50cc then
Pathetic stats.. Inner city bike at best. And even then, a lot to be desired. Only thing it's going for it is the looks, just. It doesn't even equate to a 125cc learner bike. When are they going to learn, make them quick, make them get up to a decent top speed. Then you might actually make a decent world wide brand.
It's not meant to aim at 125CC. It's meant as a 50CC bike to ride to school with or other close things within the city.
@@obinnaeke8067 that's what the ts is. The issues are what they are selling versus the market. Ts, tc and the tc max. Ts and tc are, well aimed at 16yr olds? The tc mac, could be considered a 125cc, but same again, if you put any 125cc in the UK against it, stat for stat, the average rider of this level of bike is not going to be interested. I know, I'm one of them, I've ridden the max. Same thing, I've never ridden anything so limp, especially if you have to use it on a quicker road. It's what stopped me buying one. That actual reason. Unfortunately. I was really interested.
@@churcher8334 Yup that's what I meant for the TC and TS. I haven't ridden the Max yet, I thought it had fast accelleration... The videos I have seen must be to positive on this 😂. But you are right... We lack fast, affordable electric bikes... I was thinking of getting a bigger bike and it being electric, but tbh there's not so many options other than the zero motorcycles.
@@churcher8334 Well you cant only look at The speed. Eletric bikes have other pros. First of all its cheap to maintain. Fuel is dirty cheap and if you have a sollar you get fuel for free. Second thing you dont pay for oil, spark plug or any maintain stuff like regulation and cleaning a engine. And its way more reliable than normal engines. There is just nothing that can breake. So you pay way less money for repairs. And the torque is amazing. I have a chinese 50cc bike and i live on very hilly terrain. I need to rev engine to 6-8k rpm in order to go up hill in 1st gear. And im going up hill like 10-20kph (on flat im going 70-80kph). And this is on old one (2012) bike without euro 4. My friend bought new chinese 50cc and going up hill on this bike is nearly impossible beacuse of this stupid regulation. And this is where eletric bike shine with is stupid amount of torque. Going up hill is no problem even with passenger. So in smaller bikes is better to have eletric than petrol engine. But the cons are max speed and range. I know that normal 125 can go even 140kph and it have unlimited range but if you live in the city and have like 10-15km to work or school, do you realy need to go 140kph and to have big range? Every engine have its pros and cons i think that if you want a bike to go from home to work and back eletric is better option. If you want to go on journey or to travel far, normal engine will be better. But eletric engine will always be better in 50cc class. New 50cc petrol engine bikes are shiet, zero power and zero fun. Loud as fuck, a lot of vibration. Just buy eletric 50cc. Or old 2 stroke.
Please have some water before recording audio. I couldn’t make it through the whole video
It is a Chinese Company! One more product in the flood of Chinese Products in Australia.
Manufactured in China, designed in EU/?
No. Designed in China and made and China.
And the issue with that is? If it's a good product, couldn't care less where it comes from.
And yet, now it's one of the best selling electric motorcycles in the UK.
Opened the video because I'm wondering what the sound of this motorcycle is. This I never found out, because the announcer behind the scenes constantly pisses :(
Cafe Racer ? It's a joke?
Of course, it smells like coffee racer ...
waste of time
Trash video. Bikes should be reviewed on long term to be able to know what kind of problems can we have in 2 months and even a year!!!
