Thankyou for the comment. Unfortunately that's only possible on a few places where we are as laws are restrictive. DC Unplugged here on UA-cam does a speed run around a closed track. It would be worth checking out his channel.
The predator will be available again soon. Keep an eye on bike scooter city's website for info. As for this or the lightning. That's a tough question. I haven't been able to test the predator as I'm waiting on a secondary code to fully unlock the scooter. When I have that I will give it a good test. I love the lighting it's my most fav scooter to date. I'd lean towards the lightning for its ride and all round awesomeness but it doesn't have some wave controllers like the predator does. The makuta 10plus is closer to the lighting in power and ride

Hi there. There is a soft to hard setting which is p10 but the manual says this is not functioning and during my testing I found it didnt make much difference if any. Using your gear makes a difference. I usually ride around in gear 2 for general riding. The throttle isn't as punchy but it still gives good top speed. Less front wheel spin too
@@jibba0202 yes it is an awesome looking scooter. The headlights on scooters could be mounted higher but this one where it is does do a good job. It's very bright so you do get seen
What happened to the price? The price was mentioned here in the comments yesterday & also on the BSC website, & now it’s gone from the comments here & also removed from their website… 🤷🏻♂️
There's a few scooter manufacturers that use rebranded scooters. It's cheaper for them to produce something that has already had the design process done. Dragon have used a few companies in the past like langfettie, bouyeda and the lastest being joyor with the Slayer. This one however isn't a rebrand. Dragon have gone all out and made this as a ground up build like they did on the lightning V1 and V2. Others may copy this but dragon have designed this one.
@@f.cscootriders thanks for the information I'm definitely going with a dragon scooter my colleague has the dragon raptor and I been looking at the dragon slayer to get because their in my price range and my desired speed, but now I might save up a little more for the lightning v2, thanks for the information.
@@PlayingWithWilson lightning v2 is my all time favourite scooter. However it is being challenged by the Makuta. The base model Makuta is cheaper and it packs a very similar punch and ride to the lightning. Makuta is a smoother acceleration curve too
@@KingK1. Anhui Chaoli Electronic Technology Co. So a Chinese company. I can tell you that dragon do source the best a grade cells for this type of battery. Some Chinese brands of batteries that get used in cheaper scooters are not the best batteries
Hi there. It's a 60v system running a 25.2ah battery. As for ip rating it's not listed. Not many scooter manufacturers give an IP rating. This one however can handle being caught out in the rain but it's still not advised to ride in rain
Yes. These are an excellent upgrade to the GTRv2 they built tough like the GTR but heaps better in suspension power and handling. Well worth it if you are thinking of something new
Thanks for the feedback. This unboxing was literally straight out of my mates vehicle and film. Very raw first impressions. I was away to excited to be the first to inbox this beauty. Plus my video set up is pretty basic but it's something I'm working on improving. Lucky the predator is a good bit of kit though
@@f.cscootriders And I'd suggest putting 500kms on it before backing a dragon product up. Not even 400kms on my gtrv2 and it's almost ready for the bin. Not just that, but customer service/support from BSC is appalling. Did you know they buy most of their 5 star reviews? Wish I'd seen the real reviews before purchasing. Post an aftermath video after 500kms please.
@@cobsy4life never had a problem with any of my dragons and I've owned 3 and had the pleasure of riding many more. Sure things can go wrong. Sounds like you and a bad run and that not good. Doesn't mean every one is bad. The ride review will come soon and I'm very certain these are going to be as impressive as they look
@@f.cscootriders Yes possibly a bad run, also possibly bad luck with a dud scooter however like mentioned the customer support is terrible. Maybe that's just me too 😜 All the best and good luck dealing with them when one of your 3 starts breaking. Also just to mention. My brake disc came bent straight out of the box. The handlebars need adjusting after every ride. The stem clamp is terrible. The front light fell off after the first ride. The plastic caps for the front dampers came off after first ride. My rear tyre popped after 130kms. My battery gets 10-15kms out of a charge compared to 50 when new. ( only 6 weeks old). The battery covers pop off every little bump. Oh have you tried adjusting the brakes with the one Allen key they don't provide you? And the rest of the "tool kit" is crud. Threw them out and got better Allen keys just to maintain the scooter. I'm currently going through consumer affairs to try and get my money back, as they want me to pay for Freight, and if it cant be fixed they will take a 30% restocking fee. That's a loss of $480. So I'm just scooting around till it breaks. Also they originally sent it to Melbourne instead of Brisbane after I paid the $60 postage fee and blamed everyone for their mistake and had me do all the chasing around. And how good is their phone service? Going with the Bolzzen Sniper next. Will be here soon. Shopping through a local dealer instead. Sorry for the long reply.
@@cobsy4life that's your choice I guess. Sorry you had a bad run. Just remember all brands can have issues including bolzzen. Some of the issues you metioned on the gre can be fixed with simple maintenance which is probably why my original GTR is still going well after 3000km. Anyhow hope you ha E a good run with the sniper. It's a nice looking scoot
Looks wicked love the colours very nice.
@@Jamesmoore-mj5ke this is the old model now the new model is now black where the original is green
The predator is back in stock now at bike scooter city Sumner park. Get in quick to secure yours before they sell out.
Keep up the good work. I would really like to see a top speed run with the dragon predator on road . Cheers.

I live in a remote community in FNQ, and I have hit 70km. It handled off the road really well, and no wild dog pack was able to catch it. 😅
Can't wait to see what this beautiful machine has 😍😍
Its up and fully running so time to ride and test it out.

Available again now at bike scooter city Sumner park but they are selling fast
I decided to buy one of these early next year because it can carry up to 150kg.
Nice. They definitely have the power. Suspension is nice and strong too so great choice
Can you do a p settings video, got mine today but no Info or manual for it
There is a downloadable manual for these. I can send it to you via messenger or contact bike scooter city for the link
Does the Predator perform offroad as well as on?...Great video.
It sure does. I have backed the suspension off as much as I can to make it softer as I'm a lighter rider and it's amazing.
Just got told from a friend who owns a predator after a solid 2 hours off-road that they handle it with ease.
Hi Andrew, Is there a way to turn down the acceleration on the Predator? It's way too easy to spin the wheels at the moment.
Hi there. There is a soft to hard setting which is p10 but the manual says this is not functioning and during my testing I found it didnt make much difference if any.
Using your gear makes a difference. I usually ride around in gear 2 for general riding. The throttle isn't as punchy but it still gives good top speed. Less front wheel spin too
Awesome looking electric scooter 👍but I don't get the yellow?I don't remember any yellow on predator green maybe for the predator blood.
Still looks amazing though
Nice scooter, and do you also have the Maxfun 10 pro scooter with PMT tyres?
No I don't have a maxfun scooter. I have had a dragon lightning which I put PMT tyres on and it was unbelievable
cool ride...
Veey nice man great video
Thanks. Always love hearing people like my videos

What is the scooter raised on the trunk door of the SUV?
That's a dragon the beast. We were resealing the deck after changing a kickstand
Nice
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
have your wheelies for breakkz preditor weighs 36 kg
@@kings7man sorry not sure what you mean.
When you lift it in the car it is heavy
@@kings7man oh ok. These aren't too bad. They are not a lightweight coming in at 36kg but they do have a locking stem which does help.
I just clicked to what your first comment was. Wheeties for breaky. There was a typo which I why I didn't get it first off
$2200 I was told yesterday at BSC.
buy it goód deal
It's basically a vsett9. Cool colors. I just got a Laotie es19 if anybody cares to see a review video
It's completely different from a vsett 9. It's a brand new build and very unique build as well
Nice 1..❤
Thankyou

3700$ cad is fair depending onthe type of battery cells
They aren't that much. Bike scooter have them at $2499 Australian dollars on their website at the moment. Battery cells are "a" grade cells.
@@f.cscootriders a grade is not the brand i need a company :)

I gremin to have one like this one bro
Hopefully you got one by now
When does this come out
Not too long now. I will let you all know on the channel as soon as I know
What brand is the battery?
For this model escooter it's a generic brand but with a grade cells. These batteries have proven to quite reliable across the dragon range
Looks like a Makuta rebrand
No where near it. This one is a ground up build unlike no other. Mukuta is from the vsett family.
What is the release date for this?
Its not too far away now. As soon as I get a revised release date I will post here
Seems bit flashier then my dragon GTS v2
Yes. These are an excellent upgrade to the GTRv2 they built tough like the GTR but heaps better in suspension power and handling. Well worth it if you are thinking of something new
