Introducing the Wolf King - but not as you know it. Though it may look the same, and do everything you love about the original King, the new (and much improved) GT ups the ante in a sensational way.
With better range, specs, and features than the original - not to mention more pace and power - the GT is a brutally efficient addition to the congested ultra-performance scooter market.
Along with the NAMI Burn-e, it’s one of our favorite scooters - will it be yours, too? Let’s find out.

I have a Wolf King GT and absolutely love it. I get about 40 mile range when riding at 40-45 mph. I currently have about 5000 mile on it and still going strong.
What's your top speed?
Did you get the off road or "road" tires? I cant decide which I want. Im probably doing 70/30 road to offroad but just want to make sure the "road tires" can handle the light gravel/dirt trails I have around me.
Good to hear. I just got one and put 124 miles on it so far.
Love my GT, take it to work, scootering takes 8min, car ride takes 30 to 40 min
That’s why I want one . Where do you live ?
Almost ditto. 14 min scoot. 30 min drive. Best thing is scooting is FUN! Arriving at work after riding the wkgt for 14 mins is a great way to start your day.
I was able to sell my car for a profit. I ride my Wolf 11 or King GT almost 100% of the time.
Nice
Great ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡👌🏾
I bought the nami and after 60 miles has to take it back cuz of endless problems, got the gt now problem free and love it to bit's after 600miles
Is it still going good?
Nice review 👍
Hi Question Please. If you had one choice, all things considered, would you choose the WWKing GTPro OR the Dualtron Thunder 2 and reasons why. Thanks
Hi electric scooter insider I'm waiting for delivery of my king GT pro and like the suspension I'm bouncing for it haha
Question on the "Real World Range". Your 50-55 miles, is that using dual motor, top performance mode? How are you riding to achieve the 50-55 Miles?
I have the dualtron city is it worth selling for this?
Hi is the Wolf Kjng GT reliable scooter ?
please share where can i buy this scooter in finland?please help thanks 😊
Why no splash guard at the front? Might be the only deal breaker for me
Loved your video brotha, so my question to you is, out of these two scooter, the Kaabo wolf king GT and the nami burn e2 max.
I’m 6 foot tall and 240lbs. I’m not concidering these two because of the speed, but more for the power to be able to go up hills and some light off road adventures. I don’t plan to ride very aggressively, but it’s nice to know that if I need the power to move, these two will move. I really like the fact that the GT you can add a seat to it and I haven’t Sean a seat available for the nami. I’m 54 years old and I plan to ride on some long distant riding, so having the option to sit is a great feature the GT offered. I know the suspension is a bit better on the nami, so how bad is the suspension on the GT compared to the nami. ? W hitch would you chose if you were in my situation trying to decide. Thanks!
If you have the money the Nami is in a whole different elevated class over the Wolf King GT.
@@davejohnson8338 thanks Dave for your response. I had a feeling you were going to chose the Nami. I’ve watched botha your videos on the Nami and now the GT. I really do love the Nami and getting this feedback from you really, really helped me seal the deal with my choice. The Nami Max will be taking my money lol. Thank you for all you do to help us guys find the right scooter. Your awesome and love all your content in the videos you put out. Your soo detailed and straight forward. 🙏🏼👍🏽😊 keep up the good work 🙏🏼👍🏽😊
@@davejohnson8338 Are you saying this regarding the suspension alone?
@@michaelschwab9563 No, for everything. Every single part is of higher quality. If you rode them both side by side there’s no one picking the Wolf King GT. The cornering and ride quality of the Nami is just fantastic.
@@davejohnson8338 Any issues with your Nami Burn-E 2 max? How serviceable is it, tires, brakes, under deck compartment, water proof etc? Debating on dropping $5k on one but hesitant due to no local or in state dealer support 🤔
I get 25 mile range in cold weather. Around 30 degree weather
Hey, great review. I had some questions. I'm a large man, 6'2" I weigh 350lbs (football player type body). I want to get the Wolf King GT pro but I see the weight limit is 330lbs. I've been to scooter expos and have emailed some vendors like VORO and FLUID. I've been told the scooter can handle me so long as im not aggressive with it. I plan to ride street mostly and some light dirt roads. In your opinion do you think I should get this scooter or the Burn-E? I respect your opinion. Keep up the awesome reviews. I watch them all.
You’ll be fine I’m 320 and put my 40# daughter on it and ride with me
🔥 Users have reported their Wolf King GT scooters catching on fire. Kaabo has investigated and determined it's an issue with a controller defect. Kaabo is issuing battery fuses and new chargers to isolate the battery from short circuits. Kits are being sent out to resellers for distribution.
I myself run the WWX PRO and have hit 49mph GPS and in ode 1 @18 mph 45 miles, next yr. I'll be moving the controller and step-down reg. To the rear so I can in stall a 35ah battery. From a 28ah.
The only draw back to this scooter is the weight of it this Wolf GT is a excellent scooter compare to the price range & what you getting in that category & now the GTR is taking it to a new level..
Yeah but its hard to get much info on the GTR is ut available yet for purchase?
Here is some more bad about the scooter, The part of the deck where the screws hold down the battery cover are very very thin and after removing the cover a few times the threads will strip out, the same for the controllers cover.
This unit could use much better water proofing on the cables that lead into the batter compartment.
I have had two issues with the scooter, from it turning off and leaving you stranded at all levels of battery charge, and surges in power. When it turns off you have to plug in the battery charger/s multiple times to turn it back on again. The last time I had to push it a mile to get to my chargers. Talking with Voro they admit there is issues with the sign wave controllers. Rear fender not long enough to stop water from splashing on your back when riding a wet rd.
Why is everything that is made in China barely strong enough, or barely thick enough, when for a dollar or 2 more in manufacturing they could solve these issues.
How long ago did you buy your GT Pro?
it looks nice i really like it!!!
I think THE most ignored subject when reviewing scooters is maintenance. Type of maintenance, difference in ease of maintenance between brands and innovations in design that separate the competition. The maintenance struggle is most certainly real and not everyone is willing to ship their scooter back to where they purchased it to perform important replacements and regular maintenance. However, the cons you outlined here are enough for me to not get this scooter.
I have 3 Wolf King GTs, in my experience the only people who have issues with maintenance on this scooter are those who do not know how to use tools properly. Usually men in their 20s, you know the generation, who were stuck playing video games instead of building something with their hands. They would probably break a finger on their soft hand trying to replace a tire on a scooter. I can see how that could be a problem for you.
@@jaycarl1562 I’m not sure if you’re linking me in with this “softer generation” with the end of your post but (if not, no harm no foul)…I added what I did because the content provider here asked if there’s anything the viewer would have added. I’m 53 with a fully outfitted garage and do all my own repairs and maintenance. I’m just looking out for the guy that might not and suddenly finding himself with a nice boat anchor because he can’t take care of this machine. I don’t think sellers and content providers do enough for the awareness on the subject is my whole point.
I've been wanting this for months but can't afford it lol
You say take anywhere, but how is the waterproofing?
I’ve rode it in downpours it does good. But there’s more bads than goods. Too many quality control issues
Where’s ur review on the new kaabo GTR
Coming soon
I was stock between getting the Gt or the Nami, glad I bought the Nami love it 😊
Did you get it back after it was was seized?
@@mz-hd5xm How do you know my Nami got seized 🤔 and Nah I didn’t get it back bought another one 2 weeks ago now
@@ibrahimajau6275 I'm the all knowing
@@ibrahimajau6275 did police seize it? should have just dipped
@@TrinoWins how? Battery nearly dead and ended up in a dead end by not knowing the area lol
And wich if Any are American made ?
I love mine. I had it for 1 month now 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
no mention of the battey fires or recalls to install fuses?
or the surging jolts that want to rip the bike out of your hands
Im in Oregon with mountains ,and rain 90% of time year why would I pay more for a toy that cost more than a good second hand car or motorcycle.?
And kabo wolf king gt pro??
They should do a re-make horror movie like The American Werewolf or Silver Bullet (1985 Corey Haim) with the main character being chased through a wooded bike path or trail at night on a Kaabo Wolf GT and dusting the Werewolf but you have to add some close calls scenes where the Werewolf almost catches the main character ! Man, I can see the drift scenes on the dirt paths in my imagination clearly 😂. Where’s Michael Bay !? Lol
My only concern is if it wheelies by accelerating it, cause I am looking to get one with a seat and that is my biggest concern.
It doesn't wheelie easily even when trying to but if your on dual motor mode and on power mode 3 you can get your front tire to skid/burn out pretty dang easily and mode 4-5 are basically impossible to not skid if you go full throttle off the start(coming from a 150pound rider)
The Thunder 2 can install a seat.
If you're gonna get a scooter with a seat why the hell not just get a bike😂
My wolf 11+ has same battery, it’s not much of an upgrade other than it’s 21700 cells
Yours is 60v 35AH battery, 1200W motors and 40amp controllers.... You don't get no range and performance like King GT Pro. 72V plus 50amp sinewave, 2000W(8440max)motors is a significant difference.
@@bakunawa534 Yep. It's a lot actually
You also forgot to mention after a while the Wolf GT’s suspension bushings start to wear due to incorrect size washers from factory. Also the casing for the controllers would be more effective if there was a venting plate at the back. My GT overheated with Error 1 code at the Cyclopark event.
Any criticism is that…..you’re British mate, please also include prices in GBP not just USD. 👍🏻
British escooter market is tiny compared to the US, probably why he didn't list GBP price
Better of waiting a few more years for the improvements. Still refining
The price looks appealing for such a beast of a scooter, but it seems that the quality is sketchy, the most important being safety as I would not want my condo to go up in flames because of a defective e scooter
Ok thanks
Buy buy buy they are great . I'm sure this fing could climb Everest. 🤣
It's just too ridiculously huge to be stored or manuvered in and out of a small flat. It's totally impractical unless you have a garage. It's also much more liable to attract attention and get taken off you if you're caught riding it. Also, you can't fit a seat. I sold mine and got the Thunder 2. It's inconspicuous and nowhere near as elaborate and can be manuvered much more easily.
Oh! And we have bicycle trie eating storm drains.
Love the Idea@ of a long range eletric scooter but they are already to hight price for the average American to buy.that is Even close to being any good. 4,000 or more for anything close? That seams to me so far desposible. Once the batterys arw worthless ! A few years at best for what a thousand dollars a year till done.?
Same review as ESG.
AN HONEST REVIEW FOR ONCE..HOW RARE
Sad isn't it....SO many of these Scooter reviews are completely Full of Shit. Respect to tos Guy 👍🏻
Op
Mine surges like ginger on wheels did. It came with tons of unplugged wires, no pressure in either brakes. Either charging port worked. Tonight it threw a code “motor phase fault” tired of dealing with this scooter
Sounds like a nightmare and piece of crap 😕
Did you buy yours in US or Europe? When?
@@CoolWatts I've noticed this guy goes around commenting this on every single Wolf King GT video he can find.. If his story is even true, (big 'if' at this point as he appears to be a troll) I'm not sure why he didn't invest that same energy into getting the issue fixed or just getting a refund.
What is fault code 01? I also don't like how the charging ports are beside the battery, they have dented may battery, this could cause a battery failure(Fire) also can short out the wires from the charging ports.
You put all the same exact pros and cons as electric scooter guide. You should have talked about the poor quality control issues
Such as?
@@nocturnalrythm9141 the power surges. The fact the brake pads only touch 75 percent of the rotors, the amount of people complaining about blowing motors and controllers and getting thrown off the scooter from the random surges. I have this scooter- it’s a beast. But lots of Qc issues
Agreed was very disappointed with his "Cons" didn't speak at all on the massive issues a lot of people have had.
@@Hashtag422 yeah this video was an exact duplicate of electric scooter guides video.
@@Hashtag422 I agree the video could've gone further in depth on the cons. But this Hyrule Master Chef guy literally comments this crap on every single Wolf King GT video he comes across. I can tell you from reading and watching numerous other reviews his problems are in the minority, if they're even as bad as he says. What he forgets to mention in his Wolf King GT bashing is that there is a 1 year manufacturer warranty (with the option for an extended warranty where they fix any issue you didn't cause) or he should've just returned the thing. Going around trying to convince everyone an award winning scooter is trash is just ludicrous, especially when most don't have the issues he describes. He's probably the guy that puts everything to the max and then whines when he burnt it out abusing it.
They sell you a scooter & when it doesn't work, they will not refund your money, they will not give you another unit, they will barely even talk to you. NEVER buy any Kaabo products, there is ZERO support. It's like playing Russian roulette with your hard earned money. Terrible company with THE WORST customer service possible!
I bought onw from voro and they always respond
i thnik that the nami burn e is shit because it is too expensize and not a known brand
The rear suspension cartridges suck and all the screws and bolts are horrible cheap shit if you don't change them to all stainless steel there gonna shear off on you and the taillights suck too
Recomended kit to get? Also sure they should have clear cover someone made for this
@@gokucanfly4593 just pull off the screws and bring them to any hardware store and have them give you Stainless screws
@@mikeysironrage8103 ive seen kits with new bushings and screws and washers. May try those
@@gokucanfly4593 make sure there all stainless steel
BEWARE:VORO MOTORS hiding issues with the controllers on the king gt72 V 35 amp.DO NOT BUY!!
What kind issues? My top speed 45
