Congrats on the new bike! I know the feeling. I just got a sting. You described it perfectly! I just changed my sprocket and WOW. Huge difference. Way more power and still about the same top speed!
The more research im Doing im thinking there worth it. Look at dirt bike prices 😭 then look at the mods you can put on it frfr. I dont have one but I want one
I got my bike a year ago. Love it! This video is great and showcases what this bike is really all about. Rippn around in nature wout drawing negative attention. Congradts on your bike 🤟
That's the only positive and negative actually that I can think of I mean nobody wants to hear people screeching through nature consistently but at the same time the quietness of that machine could make your stealth ness a little dangerous especially if other bikes coming at you don't hear you
Cool to see your stoke! I can tell you from experience that you have only just begun to unlock the true potential of your Sur Ron. We've had ours almost 3 years of heavy abuse from deep water to beating the crap out of them weekly. They are still goin! We ride full blown, hard enduro stuff on a regular basis too. After a lifetime of dirt bikes I'm sooo happy to ride a ultra light dirt bike going into nasty nasty places. Have fun with your new ride!
Your right about the suron being quite When we rode motocross we had the same problem. Running from the cops. Your right the more power the better especially if you fully upgrade the bike tyres suspension ect 🤩 fun I’m nearly sixty and I still can reem her out.
I've been riding mountain bikes for over 30 years and I really love this new e-bike technology. Unfortunately I am in the minority of mountain bikers because e-bikes get a lot of hate in our community. I would love to ride one of these but the problem is most of the mountain bike trails I ride won't let this type of e-bike on the trails. Even non-throttle, pedal assist bikes are banned in some places. I guess I could ride where the moto abd quad guys ride, but I don't know how well these bikes are accepted there either. Well, that looks like a killer bike and you were having a blast.
@@ricomoltisanti3021 lol, I really don't give a shit and I've been on the outs with a few riding groups in my area. But I've been riding since some of those dorks were still young enough to be sucking their mom's tits. I started riding DH 20 years ago and those people are way cooler. Most of them have a moto background. Seems like the XC guys all have road biking backgrounds, and they're the worst. 😂
Never ridden a motorcycle in my life, but bought an e-scooter (highboy s2 pro) a month ago to commute to and from work, and I absolutely LOVE IT! Looking for something with more power to ride around just for fun. I think I'm gonna save for the Sur Ron, looks brilliant
@@ty.bonsai4109 sorry can't help you there, I live in England and we have strict rules here, I could have my 19mph e-scooter taken off me if I'm caught, I will have to even more careful on a Talaria or Su-ron
Dude, I thought I was watching some 100k+ follower TH-cam channel, you have kick ass content, keep it up, you'll definitely make it on TH-cam!!! 💯👍 ***Subbed!***
If you ain’t crash’n it, you ain’t ride’n it. I literally just started to budget for this thing. Traveling around the U.S. and having the opportunity to ride trails with low-impact to the trails is money. Perfect solution. Great video 👍
The great you want to get out but these bikes are not low impact at full throttle. They tear up the trail and will widen greatly over time. Just in this video I seen him go off the trail and cut corners numerous times.
Man that thing is bad to the bone!! I want one . I have been a motorcycle guy since I could climb on one. I am 60 now and want a play toy. I rode a 650 Suzuki Enduro from Outerbanks of North Carolina to Costa Rica and back over a month and a half in 92 what a trip! But with all the noise and restrictions now due to wild fires and encroachment of neighborhoods on riding areas I see this as a great option. Do you know top speed? How is the torque? I am 5’10” between 180-190 is the suspension tunable? What are your weight height etc??? Sorry but really excited!
One thing you mentioned that is the greatest thing about these bikes is there is no clutch, no gears. Just throttle. I have watched electric motor cross racing with gas and the electric bike ate their lunch, primarily because the ride does not have to down shift or up shift just power off in corners and snatch the throttle out and it is just gone! Plus the other rider can't hear you coming up behind them.
Very capable these Surrons, Only thing which gets to me is, Say you go out exploring for the day, Riding it hard in Sport mode off road you can only really go 45 minutes to a hour away until you need to turn round and head back cant wait for the day we can get a good 7 hours riding time. I can say it will keep up with a YZ250 for the first hour :P
How does she climb? What about pointing it down a line? How much travel on the forks for descents and how does she do standing on the pegs? I had a WR250 with a Scott front stabilizer and geared down with some proper tread. The Yamaha always felt like a heavy bike power to weight ratio and was good as a desert bike and technical sections. It performed well in rock gardens, but it was limited by the power to weight ratio. The Sur Ron is light some I. Thinking it’s good for tight single tracks and regening on the 20 minute downhill runs.
I was so surprised that when I rode an unlocked one, it didn’t have any bite down low. I was expecting an electric bike to be like a Tesla & should have that instant torque. It went ok mid speed, but I wasn’t impressed, thought I was going to buy one that day, nope. Just a 250 dirt bike is infinitely more fun.
Yeah buddy great video you have a new subscriber now Love the channel can that bike do any donuts looking forward to your next video are used to ride dirt bikes through the woods by my house two-stroke motors are the best👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
hello, greetings from me, deny ahmadi from Indonesia. I wish you continued success, and the videos are entertaining and useful, I really want to have an electric bicycle but can't afford it. but what is the power I'm just a school driver. keep it up
These ebikes are great until you get a problem with the battery and realise you can not post them for refunds or to be fixed 🙄 or to fix them yourself is also a major mission, great vid I'd murder one of these surron, my 1500w bufang needs to be faster :)
Certainly worth the $400+ price, If only the UK didn't have such B/S laws, I would have one In a heart beat, well I wouldn't have had 3, accident's, I have experienced, but hey how there you go, 250whs are far to low power to get you out of trouble / thought I just heard a little bird whisper there are times & places for "EVERYTHING," great video!
Wow, good vid.. Iv been thinking about getting one, this vids done it for me.. Iv got motorbikes,. Tiger 800 ktm990smt,.. But been thinking electric bike. Charged up by turbine and sun... This is the way to go.. X
I test rode one expecting to buy it that same day, but I have to admit that I really missed the low end power. It didn't feel powerful enough at all even though it was unlocked. Maybe it's because I have a KTM 500 that I use in the woods. I know you obviously can't compare the two but still.. People on TH-cam are really hyping the surron but in reality it was a big let down for me.
I wouldn’t even ride one with the thought process of comparison to my dirt bike. I’d be thrilled to bomb around town and what not all stealth like, avoiding the cops! 😂 🤷♂️
@@dillonbacon4818 I literally said that I know you can't compare the two. The point I was trying to make is that it isn't as fast as all the TH-cam videos let you to believe. So no, I wasn't trying to compare it to a full size dirtbike, it's just slow as hell
@@Hdproductions939 it's not just the bike. Being this tall, I can't fit into (or in this case, on, unless I spend extra). I walk into a place with a low ceiling? I'll be striking my head like a match. Tiny import car? I can fit into those...if I remove the front seat. Clothes shopping? Most retailers don't stock my size so I used to have to do my shopping at Big and Tall...I'm not fat, just tall so the clothing at that retailer doesn't fit me either unless I have the waist taken in a bit (shoe shopping was the worst, thank whoever for internet shopping).
These things are sick..saw one in person and it looks dope AF. Saw several other people checking it out before I did, it's definitely an attention getter. Where did you buy yours? I'm interested and can list you as the one that referred.
2 hours is pretty good given the terrain you were on and the use you were giving it. City riding would probably get you much more then that for commuting for sure.
When you started the riding was it just out of the box? I would like to get one but I’m a tech guy. Any idea how much to install a set of pedals in order to stay away from trouble with Cops?

Very cool. I would like to try one. I have been riding motorcycles all my life and I love the clutch. Would I miss it? can you reposition the rear brake to the foot? Fun . I love how quiet it is. I never ride more than an hour or so anyways.
electric motors work definitely than petrol so you could keep the stock sprocket, bigger sprockets actually give you more torque and less top speed for the Ron. “E-moto Bro’s” explains more in detail, for higher speeds try just upgrading the controller so you can key in on more specific wattage output (although you’d have to bypass your stock battery with the upgraded controller). it’s worth it cause then you could upgrade the battery and you have a literally 125 dirtbike
Depends on terrain and riding style but I usually get a couple hours of hard riding. I did a pavement only ride the other day.. rode 20 miles (not always at full speed) and had 60% remaining when I got home
I'm almost 60 and I want one!...ok so this is the first ever time I've seen a video that the views...3100, exactly matched the likes, 3100 so far....!!!

One of the best SurRon reviews on TH-cam. You’ve got some dope areas near you for riding also, looking forward to more of your videos
I'm not saying I would buy one, but I think anything that adds to recreational opportunities is a good thing. And the choices get better every year.
and these have way less impact on nature than a dirtbike.

more teeth on the rear sprocket is going to mean less torque in mid to high range. some ability for shifting would be nice.
