Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
Thanks 3D. Looks like more detailed specs at this link: https://evnerds.com/electric-vehicles/e ... -revealed/
From the specs listed for the offroad version it appears that the weight will be about 259 lbs, seat height 36", top speed 68 mph, range about 60 miles.

Bummer about the weight though. I was hoping it would weigh in closer to 200 lbs. At 259, that's well over twice as heavy as the current Bee.

Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
If I were to make a wild guess - I think it will cost about twice as much as the current Bee. That keeps it well below the KTM Freeridde and Zero. If it costs ~3x the current model, then that pretty much puts it at what a KTM / Zero costs.SwampDonkey wrote: ↑Sep 20 2019 10:06pmOh my f*cking god lol. I gotta see one on the track!

Double cost would be kind of a sweet spot between the current model and the KTMs and Zeros; and far as I know nothing that would compete with it at that cost.
Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
I also believe it should have stayed just under 100kg.
Taking the Alta Motors Redshift EXR/MXR for comparison, it also has a weight around 120kg, but with 37kW of power instead of 22kW and with 5.8kWh of battery capacity instead of 4.6kWh. Since the Sur-Ron Storm Bee has both smaller motor and battery, it just seemed logical to me that it would also weigh less. But apparently they added extra weight on other parts of the motorcycle.
Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
Well, I finally got banned from Luna's Sur Ron Owner's page. 

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
Too porky, for anything serious off-road, especially considering the specs against Alta (just shows how Alta's drive-train was ahead of its time) ... the weight will not matter for a paved street legal stuff.
Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
because you did what?....
Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
Probably because I helped ERT develop their ASI kit by lending my bike. I think my contributions to that page actually helped sell more bikes overall. The majority of my posts were informative, and I did my best to answer questions from prospective buyers as well as those seeking technical advice.

I have been selling bikes for Luna Cycles for the last 2 years from people calling me at Sur-ron USA, and I'm just trash.

Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
Do you mean 3kWh? If yes, the stock Sur-Ron must have 120 km range, which it doesn`t

I'm still trying to figure out if this is for real or a joke. Fiber-grass frame? Like the truck from "Up in Smoke"

Re: Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike
I guess somebody should start a new thread for the SUR-RON White Ghost as well now that's finally being released (even though under a different brand name): https://evnerds.com/electric-vehicles/e ... -4800-usd/

Well, I definitely missed that thread with such long title, but even if I saw that, I would have never guessed its content by just reading it honestly.efMX Trials Electric Freeride wrote: ↑Sep 25 2019 6:04pmalready a thread about white ghost..

Someone should rename it to something shorter and more clear imo.

Yes. And yes the range is for an average speed and changes based on a lot of factors.Cheburator wrote: ↑Sep 25 2019 12:05amDo you mean 3kWh? If yes, the stock Sur-Ron must have 120 km range, which it doesn`t![]()

Yes... lol. It will come in Rastafarian colors. Bob Marley and Chech and Chongs kids will be our spokes persons.

The pic is of a SUr Ron Axial Flux motor with a gear reduction drive that they sell to companies wanting to build using their driveline components.
