is it comfortable to ride? because i’m thinking about getting one to mod out this summer, were the same build pretty much 6’3 220 just don’t wanna get one and it be rlly small for me. i will ofc like raise seat and bars and lift its slightly to help a lil
Nice! While it’s not got the pick me up of a gas powered bike, it is fun to play around with. Not sure if I mentioned it in this video; but I did end up changing the front sprocket to be one less tooth allowing for better acceleration. It did drop the top speed down 1-2 mph but for me, it worked better that way. I also changed the batteries out to be lithium vs lead acid.
I don’t… I’m sorry. Have had a few requests on that so may try to do one. Just takes a lot to remove all the gear to get the batteries exposed to remove them. :/
Yes…. Kind of… remember this is powered by an electric motor. The battery and computer module is enclosed in the plastic cover which provides protection against rain, water splashes, etc but it’s not sealed to prevent water from getting in if it was submerged. The motor, in the back is open to the elements but it is decently protected. The wiring is all covered up with protective sheaths and the side of the motor has some exposure but it’s minimal. You’re not going to ruin it from water being splashed on from your tires and such but avoid submersion or deep puddles that could get the side of the motor wet. I’ve driven this around in the snow and got it covered. Snow melted off in the garage. Didn’t have any problems. I’ve ridden this through mud and haven’t had any issues. 🤷🏼♂️
So, the 350 is pretty small. Weighing only 45 pounds would certainly make handling the 650 more challenging, just given the weight of the bike is about 90 ish pounds. That clip of my son riding the 350 in the beginning, he was 5 years old, weighed about 45 pounds in that clip, but he was only maybe 3’8” at that time. Now my son is just over 4’ tall and he looks big on the 350. He can still ride it though. The good thing about the 650 is the variable speed throttle. So your daughter can still learn slowly, but the bike is much heavier if she fell and needed to get the bike off her or picked back up. The 350 might be good for a season. Maybe see if you can find a cheaper used 350 online and try it out before committing to the 650? 🤷🏼♂️
I would consider this a “mini bike” or “pit bike”. It will have no problem pulling you around. I ended up switching the front motor sprocket out for a 10 tooth sprocket instead of the stock 11 tooth and it dropped top speed down to 15.5 mph but it pulls a lot better from stopped.
That’s hard to say.. I ride it and have fun rolling around on it and I’m 5’11”. My son who’s 4’ tall can ride it too, but it took getting used to handling it for him. He rides the mx350 and that seems small on him. But the 650 looks a little big; but he can still ride it.
Probably 85% assembled. I had to install the front and rear wheels, the handlebar and I think the rear shock needed to be installed as well. All are simple to line up and attach with the provided hardware. The brake levers were already attached to the handlebar, you just had to tight the bars down to the crown/frame. The power controllers and motor were all assembled.
I think so.. I think the cheapest I found them was $475. The stock battery is good but it’s worth spending some extra money can replacing the lead acid batteries with LiPo (lithium) batteries. You’ll be happier with overall performance as you get more consistent power through the whole charge.
I'm 6'3 & 230lb & it holds me just fine & it goes to the Max speed 😂😂😂
What’s the max speed
@@grantplutoabt 17 mph
Would it be ok in the sand? Not in the fluffy stuff but closer to the water where it is more firm... Rain? Do you have to keep them out of the rain?

I just put mine together can't wait to ride it. I have a CRF 450r but I thought this would be fun to rip around the yard on

Damn that lil bike is movin, look fast through those woods
Yea, it gets up to 15-17MPH with me on it. Not bad for a stock electric bike.
you can by upgrades😂

I have one of these and they are awesome
until u need to replace the battery every year…..
i love it but the battery life is bad
Can you make a Video of your son's MX350 thanks in advance
If you don’t mind me asking what camera do you use for the POV shots
It’s the Insta360 One RS camera.
Do you have a video on the battery swap to the Lithium Ion?
I don’t… I’m sorry. Have had a few requests on that so may try to do one. Just takes a lot to remove all the gear to get the batteries exposed to remove them. :/
Whats the mileage
Have you put any upgrades on it in this video or is it fully stock?
In this video it’s fully stock.
@@MTBTrailRider Okay thanks
would it be ok if it drove thorugh a puddle or small portion of water?

I wonder if I should get the 350 or 650 for my 8 year old daughter?She weighs 45 pounds.

i’m 5’5 150 pounds will this be a good fit for me?

@@MTBTrailRiderI was about to say the same thing
@@MTBTrailRiderwhat is the cog size?
What height would you recommend this for

Can you link to the Lithium batteries you use?
amzn.to/454MBMz
You need 3 of them.
@@MTBTrailRider thank you!
Did it come fully assembled?

how tall are you? for size comparison i'm 5'6
I am 5’ 11” , 200 pounds.
oh okay
How many miles does it last after a full charge?
I believe 10 mi range
Is it worth $530 on sale?
I think so.. I think the cheapest I found them was $475. The stock battery is good but it’s worth spending some extra money can replacing the lead acid batteries with LiPo (lithium) batteries. You’ll be happier with overall performance as you get more consistent power through the whole charge.
Do you think a 13 year old could handle this?
Yes
