Closing in on 5000 miles on one, and 2500ish on the other. That bike is all wheel drive now. Those motors are pretty bulletproof if you don’t overheat them too badly. The controllers are expendable, but also only like $40 on Amazon for a new one

It’s garbage in terms of being an electric motorcycle. I was reading someone’s reviews, 40 miles range at 50mph on moderate terrain…fucking laughableThe Metacycle looks pretty badass, assuming you are staying on pavement.

You have a geared hub motor, with 3 planetary gears circling a center driving gear.
@manfredo has a direct drive hub motor. No moving parts. Less low end torque, much better efficiency at higher speeds.
So different motor types all together, that’s why the diameter of your geared hub is smaller.

SurRon, Taleria Sting, and Onyx RCR are the “big boy” bikes out there right now. The Taleria is newer, so not as many of them, but Onyx and SurRon are the top tier of that world. Though neither can hardly be considered bikes.
…my friend modded his SurRon and got it up to 77mph, with more on the throttle he coulda given it.

That's the biggest problem with electric motorcycles in general, the limited range.
Don't forget about the Zero. It's more road than dirt oriented though.

We may need a second bike. My partner is talking about commuting to work on it.

You know you want to. Besides, who actually needs an excuse to buy another bike?We may need a second bike. My partner is talking about commuting to work on it.

I've already saved a ton on parking and tickets. I think the next one will be smaller and less expensive since my trips are only a couple kilometers at a time.You know you want to. Besides, who actually needs an excuse to buy another bike?

Build a three wheel drive! It can be really sweet. Winter riding and a boot to boot........that's what Canadians call a trunk right

Maybe get an e-scooter.

The Streak E-Scooter comes equipped with safety features like an LED headlight, taillights, front/rear Tektro E-500 hydraulic brakes, and rock shield over the back tire. The lightweight aluminium alloy frame really allows the 750W motor to shine, all controlled by thumb throttle.

Looks like there's another new electric motorcycle on the market from CSC, the same guys who brought cheap Chinese dual sport and adventure bikes to the market. It's supposed to have a 112-mi range, and top speed of 80mph. The 0-60 time of 9 seconds isn't super quick though.
