    Pumping that much power into an air cooled motor will burn it up prematurely. Someday, I hope to see manufacturers introduce a water cooled controller, motor and radiator upgrade.

    • @logan-taylor
      @logan-taylor  5 місяців тому +9

      x9000 has a water cooled heatsync option! would love to try that at some point. at 15kw the motor heat isn’t too crazy, and you can adjust the temp cutoff to lower power if it ever gets too hot, so that helps with longevity

    1 year later and I'm still messing with throttle tune on my MX4 / X-9000. Yeah, the power is sick but it's tough to dial in a good throttle feel for my type of riding. Let us know what settings you end up with after a while. 8KW/450 phase is my sweet spot for dirt & trails. Any more than that and it just spins the tire ...

    • @logan-taylor
      @logan-taylor  5 місяців тому +1

      interesting - it’s been so much better for throttle tuning than my BAC4000 is, but would be amazing if you could see the throttle curve in the app itself. i’m at 10kw like 380phase i think, might lower it even further for dirt & jumps!

    • @MoxyDave
      @MoxyDave 5 місяців тому

      @@logan-taylor I've been asking them to add a graph for throttle curve for a year now. They never answer. Also a firmware update will reset all your settings ... as a former app dev I know how easy it would be to fix these things but they just don't respond. My guess is they hired someone to write the app one-and-done, there doesn't appear to be any updates ever which kinda sucks. I really like KilloWatt for the BAC, it looks so much better ... and the developer actually responds to questions about his app. Take care bud, thanks for the video.

    Hey Logan I was wondering if you had any tips for making money to get all the e bikes I’m 14 and live in Washington just like you. I watch your videos and wanna save for a talaria xxx but don’t really know how to get the money because door to door side businesses just don’t seem to be cutting it

      door to door is exhausting, i would think about hustles where you can provide something that a lot of people want at a location. like selling otter pops at the skatepark on the hot days or something! Saving up $3000 at your age is tough but you can 100% do it.

    Yo! I'm 6'1" and like 275lbs... I know I'm like a "huge rider" compared to most but I've been eyeing the E-Ride... Should I get it or lose more weight first? lol Or is there a simple suspension upgrade i could do to make the bike handle the extra weight? I appreciate any advice.

      The max weight is 300. At your weight, you’re going to feel the frame flex and you’re not going to be about to get the bike near 60
      My cousin is about the same weight he’s at 272 and he slows the bike down significantly he maxes out about 48-52, battery level matters. The battery drains a lot faster with him on it. I’m 145 and I get the bike to its max speed.
      He still has fun tho, just a little slower than the rest of us
