      You're biased on electric ... FX 131kg, thats my scooter, Freeride350 99kg my dirt bike. The StormBee 126kg is rather on the FX side imao - Hi from Geneva

      @@oldsoul1566 Unfortunately the FX is not engineered properly for heavy offroad use. Imo the FX is not in the same category.
      There will be compromises to weight to get usable range with current battery tech. Keeping it as light as possible is key but It’s a juggling act. It’s gotta make a moto as well.

    Greeeeat points! Try filling up a gas bike at home lol. Can't do it! How inconvenient. That 100km range isn't too bad, and it charges faster than I expected. Now all I have to ask is.. will it wheelie??

    @Szlejer 3 роки тому +1

    I would love to have an electric bike, BUT until they don't have at least the same range as internal combustion bikes (regardless of the weather) it's a huge compromise, not mentioning track use... Without home charging capability, I refuse to spend 1.5 hrs or even 30 mins at a charging station every second day or so (with daily commuting). Maybe in 10 yrs or so they will make more sense.

    • @LexSummer
      @LexSummer  3 роки тому

    I see a lot of these Storm Bee videos on youtube, but nobody will say how much range it will get if you weigh 240 lbs. I weigh 240 lbs, if I buy a Storm Bee, how far can I ride it before I run out of charge, at half throttle to full throttle.

    I don't think I rode as long as you did, but I really enjoyed the STORM Bee..it's a great, lightweight commuter and play-bike with lots of torque for such a small package. Once we get bikes this size with 15kwh energy density and DCFC, it will be heaps more useable as a weekend adventure bike and longer range tourer :)

      @@LexSummer the Storm Bee will be sold ready for road registration, it weights to much to be compared to a dirt bike. It is the correct weight and power to be compared to bikes like the KLX250, CRF250L and the WR250R as a true dual sport bike.
      This is why range needs to be measured at a worse case scenario of 100kph on a highway so that we can see the maximum traveling range as opposed to the mixed riding range because the range at 100kph is going to be way less then what we can get trail riding.
      This is why it is so important in order to make an informed choice about the storm bee 🐝
