I wish that were true. It's more like the era of ridiculously expensive suspension upgrades. 🙄 At this price point it just seems like the market is being taken advantage of because there's no one else filling the spot. I understand that's how the market works but damn wtf.
I’m going to have to reach out now and do another ultra bee build! I was waiting for something like this to become available. That was the only complaint I had when I had my ultra bee was the suspension.
The suspension looks really good, something that wasn't discussed is can this handle motocross racing? Additionally the cost of the fork is the only negative it seems. If it can come down a little i think many will upgrade to it. Have to keep in mind the economy right now is in the sh!!ters
So, to get an ultra bee where you really want it for "real" riding, $7000 for the bike, $800 for wheels/tires, $3k for the suspension and then whatever guards and customization of the cockpit etc. This is on the low side of estimates but you can get a KTM/Gasgas/Husky 2T300 out the door for under $10k when they are on sale, which they are right now on the 24's. Just hard to justify.
Most gas dirt bike guys we race against have spent close to this amount this on their KTM/GasGas/Husky suspension, but we get your point. Like all bikes and brands, upgraded suspension makes a massive difference but can cost serious $$$. We are finding that many Ultra Bee owners also own gas bikes but are spending more and more time on their UB. This suspension is for Ultra Bee owners that love their bikes but want a better ride.
Bought myself a fresh Gas Gas this season because of the awesome pricing, still had to fork out a ton of money on suspension though. All in all my Gas Gas 300 still ended up costing me way more after all the after market accessories, tire setup and suspension tuning. Found myself still riding my Ultra Bee just as much as the gas bike.
@@Mountainslayerz I have a 23' XCW and haven't had to do anything other than turn a few clickers. We ride super slow technical terrain though so probably not as important. I put tubliss and the guards on but you have to do that on any bike.
In the moto world a fork of this quality with triple clamps is far more expensive often $5000. The price is actually quite good for a fork of this level.
@@ChargedCycleWorks it’s hard to buy into your recommendations when you constantly change what products you promote. Seems like you promote whatever the next new big thing is.
@@ChargedCycleWorks @jesterfield2 they are a retailer/shop dedicated to e-moto, wouldn't make sense if they only sell, promote and make content on one brand. No one does unless they are sponsored by a certain brand. They are one of the few shops that build, ride and race bikes with these parts, so the recommendations have pretty high merit. It's also an evolving market where new products are always coming out so there's always better parts to review.
@@jesterfield2 A lot of companies make great products. EXT is awesome, Sirris is awesome. What's so wrong about promoting awesome products? At this moment Sirris is the only one making a fork like this for the Ultra Bee.
A new era in E-Moto suspension performance is here! ⚡#RideSirris

Yeah I thought that was the Dust Moto in the ad. Glad you called that out,
What a great time to be alive!! Thank you guys! This is awesome.
Wow, you guys have come up with the most awesome suspension Siris and for a great price as well job well done guys

this thing looks incredible!
so pumped to see this!
It's like riding on a cloud!
Great update. Thanks
So for a technical new england hare scramble, would you rather race and Ultra Bee with this suspension, bigger battery, etc or a Stark Varg?
Custom axle and brake bracket saves getting a new wheel and brakes for the wp swap

Sweet video!!
Awesome video!
So, is the steering limited for the KTM 85SX forks on the Light Bee? I don't know too much about the Ultra Bee...
Thanks
Want!

Just wait til next June and get a Dust.
@@612MAX What is the Dust? New bike or new suspension?

Will this work for an E-Ride Pro SS with 21 inch front wheel?
No, it will be way too big and only work with an Ultra Bee front wheel.
If it comes stock on dust moto I’ll just buy that instead
Likely that won't be the only thing that is better about the dust.
KYB - just sayn
Yes! KYB level performance and quality made to bolt right onto your UB without any DIY hacks ands downsides.
$2250 fork, damn. Shock is priced right though. Edit: Didn't realize premium dirtbike suspension so much. Not so expensive in comparison

2025 Fox 40's are damn near 2k
The fork and shock tune on my Sherco was $4k.. so $3200 for a whole fork and shock both tuned, this is killer pricing.
@@612MAX wow! Didn’t realize those had gone up that far in price.
Nice but pricy
Man, I thought you guys were big EXT fans. Seems like you guys flip flop constantly.
We are EXT fans, and it is still great suspension, they have yet to produce a fork, and Sirris has produced an incredible fork and shock combo
