Thank you!
I wonder if you could have pulled him and used the regen to charge his up
We could have but he has one of the first generations with the regen that doesn't work.
@@failing_successfully that was just one of my crazy technical thoughts lol
👍
👍
You should do a distance test video
Ok! How far is a success? And how far is a failure?
this or a surron?
The Talaria is pretty much better in every way compared to a Surron LBX.
5:22 OUCH!!!!
Let’s go!
is it true ur suppose to charge to 100 and ride it till 0 for the first 3 times, im getting mine soon would be good to know
It's up for debate but everything I've read suggests it's good to fully discharge and recharge for the first 3 cycles. I've done it on all my bikes and haven't had any issues with my batteries.
@@failing_successfullywow I’ve never heard anyone say this before! Good info
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday 😍😘
local here!
@@HappyCloud-ju2pm you live on Catalina??
@@failing_successfullyyes sir
How long have you lived there? What a paradise! You're living my dream. Haha
@@failing_successfully yup about my whole life. 36 years!
Jealous!
I’m curious to the make of Jon’s tires and also your skinny tires. How much do you guys weigh. I’ve got a mx4 on order now and can’t wait for it to arrive! Great video!
@larrybrandon8291 thanks for the kind words and the sub!! You're my 112th! The skinny tires we found on ebay. Mitas 2.0x19 www.ebay.com/itm/335353255969?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=f8IGlM0eTuC&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=AzdxdEVyTmy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY The dirt tires we found on amazon. Duro 3.25x19 Duro 25-30719-325BTT HF307 Classic Front/Rear Tire - 3.25-19 , Position: Front/Rear, Rim Size: 19, Tire Application: All-Terrain, Tire Size: 3.25-19, Tire Type: Offroad, Tire Ply: 4 a.co/d/00yDMDlX
Also those Duro's are the best thing you can do to your MX4. They are amazing on the street, great in the dirt, and they last forever. And they fit front and back on the stock rims without any issue.
cool....when u doing Alaska to Argentina like the guys with 50ccs? u be first on taleria
Bro! I wanna do a west coast to east coast ride if this thing takes off. But AK to the south tip would be wayyyy better.
wow they allowed it on the island! ...lol...they cracking down here in the southbay beaches...redondo, hermosa, manhattan...
@@spawnrcandbikes yeah my brother lives in Manhatten beach and we keep seeing bikes get impounded. I really expected more issues but our pedal kit did the job. We were pretty careful for the most part and tried to ride respectfully but there were cops all over and didn't bother us. As long as you respect their island and pay the $35 conservancy fee they're happy to have us. I can't wait for the next trip out there. It's a total dream riding out there.
are they functioning pedals are just fake ones that spin in place. I’m not a huge fan of pedals and was thinking about the spinning in place ones.
They're both. We made it so they pedal the bike when we get inspected but the motor is disconnected, then when we get to the island we move the chain up to the motor so the pedals become fake but the bike rides off the electric motor like normal. We made a video about how we built the pedal hit. Check it out! czcams.com/video/DX007OXzIYA/video.html
Excellent video all the way great team effort beautiful views love is keep it up
Thank you! ♥️ Many more to come!
@@failing_successfullyhow tall and how much do you fellas weigh ?
Hello
Hello sir!
how was your ass feeling after that ride?
😂 not good! It was a constant struggle to swap cheeks and try standing as much as possible. Haha
@@failing_successfully lol I do that when traveling 12 miles so I know what you mean
No joke! What do you ride?
@@failing_successfully I’m on a surron light bee x
I have an RV and motorcycles too! I had a free boat but gave it away for free also. I couldn't afford to get it up and running. Looking forward to seeing more of your content!
No way! Where are you located??
@@failing_successfully I'm a SoCal resident too. Orange County. You rode your electric bike thru the riverbed by my house in Seal Beach. Lol
@@failing_successfully I also ride ACH and GMR with my big bike. GSXR-750. I ride the dirt bikes and Grom on the local riverbeds.
Rad! We'll have to put a ride together! Email me. joshlubeck@yahoo.com
Such a pretty ride! But I cannot imagine how sore your bottom was afterwards 😳😅
Very!
That was awesome! Congrats! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@joeylopina Thanks for the sub! You're gonna love the Catalina video! I should have it posted in a few days.
@@failing_successfully I'll keep a look out for it man. 🤙🏽
Great ride
Thanks! Did 80 miles with skinny tires last week. Just did 191 miles from Palmdale to San Diego towing a spare battery and a generator. Haha Editing the video in the next few days.
@@failing_successfullyhow much do you weigh ?
I read someone wired up just one fan this way and allowed the second fan to run as normal. He stated his relay was overheating from the fan running all the time. Have you had any issues with that? Someone stated the plug and play kits came with a larger relay to deal with the extra heat from the fans running continuously? Thank you!
I haven't had any issues with the relays overheating, but I don't run them continuously because even when I'm driving hard it will cool the motor way too well. I also made another video showing how I have my fans on a reverse relay switch so my fans are running through the stock relays plus 80 amp relays. So in the summer I can pull the heat out of the cab, and in the winter I can blow hear into the cab.
sad!!!
that's pretty good
Splish splash!! Looks like she loves it!
Pretty soon she'll be swimming with no floaties!
time for some fun in the sun!!
Uhmmm Selena and I will take the catalina express just in case 😳😂
Nice boat congratulation ready to go to be Catalina island
This is too cute 🥹❤️
Your twin! 😂
Just chillin 🥰🥰
Oh my gosh😮
She is going to be a fish for sure!
Bella Selena hasta parece que anda en Xochimilco en las lanchas ❤
Awesome range. I'd love to see what a beach ride looks like.
@DuckRiverHomestead I'm flattered you're watching! I agree. A true zero elevation change ride would be interesting. I think 100 miles is possible.
Shocked at the range you two got!!! Incredible 😊
Us too! I would never normally ride that slow but it's nice knowing what's possible in a pinch.
@@failing_successfully yeah idk if I could endure my seat for 5-hrs! You had to be dyin at that point
Surprisingly I wasn't feeling too bad. I could have gone longer if the battery wasn't dead.
Yeeeeeah…. I need one of these bikes in my life
You sure do!
You guys really enjoy what you are doing excellent team work thanks for sharing
Pretty incredible range. I'm surprised his made it that far with those huge tires.
@harrybauer7904 me too! He did better with those than I did with my stock tires.
Very interesting and not what I would have expected given the weight, but I guess that rolling resistance difference is pretty dramatic. Gives me confidence I could do 60 miles+ if I needed to on the 2.75 tires.
Is it just tires and driving style? Wire cut? Eco Mode? Sorry if you said in the video I missed it.
@TheDogsBox I forgot to mention it thank you! Yes both bikes have their brown wires cut, but no other performance modifications other than tire changes and my headlight switch to turn it off. We averaged 14.8 mph and were in eco mode the entire ride.
if you would not cut the wire and keep it legal and also the range would go up because it uses less power. I'm getting a street legal one but waiting with the wire cut because i could do it later and also have more range if i can life with the max speed of 45km per hour in speed mode... i am scared that if i cut the wire i cannot place a switch box in between maybe it doesn't work it is very hard to do. than i keep stressing about the law while riding.
What was Jon doing 😂
His bike. 😂
You are going the wrong direction!😮
So I can see oncoming traffic! Haha One of the guys got a flat tire and I got bored while they were trying to figure it out.
😳😳
Way to take one for science man. Your thoughts on the latest batch of the mx4, and any truth in the rumors of 9kw with a revised controller? Talaria's websites are lame and not current. Cheers
I raced my buddy on his first gen MX4 and it sure seems like my new one has 9kw. I haven't been able to find anything officially confirming it. Thinking about taking the controller off to see the specs maybe. But overall everything just feels better. And the regen is a game changer. Rode a downhill mountain bike trail yesterday and I would have been really worried about overheating my brakes on my older bike, but the regen takes all the stress out of it.
I had wanted to buy a YXZ really bad a month ago... I have a Segway and thought the idea of having a clutch would make fast dirt road driving more fun. Then I started researching the YXZ and discovered that they pretty much require 15K worth of mods to get the car I thought it would be in the first place. For 20+15K I could get a car that was better to start with! So then I took the Segway out and realized it was plenty fun for now even though I miss shifting like I get to do in my little sports car. Still... I'm having great fun. And like you, I also realize I'm never stomping it and don't really know that double the horsepower would matter. So yeah, I like your way of thinking. Dumping infinite money into a car that was apparently never made to be 'incredible' (mine or yours) is not the smart move. Enjoy it for what it is and dont beat it to a pulp.
@herbf2700 Thanks for the kind words! I'm super curious about the Segway. Did you get the gas or hybrid?
@@failing_successfully Well I just have the 72 inch normal 1L gas version of the Villain. The hybrid is the Super Villain but its not out quite yet 225hp turbo or 325hp turbo hybrid. I'm going to wait and see that machine in person before I make any moves (Its a real transmission but no clutch, I think). One thing about my car is that other than fancy tires and a skit plate, it doesn't need much. No gussets or shock relocations. The springs and shocks are great. The power is fine. The seats and retracting 4-point is excellent. Its already a long travel with great clearance. Very happy with it so far.
@@herbf2700if you’re dropping 15k into a YXZ, you’ve built a machine with forced induction, a competition spec cage, and long travel suspension. The next comparable factory prepped machine to that is starting 34-37k depending on whether you choose Can Am or Polaris. What kind of car were you expecting with the entry level price? My ‘24 XT-R keeps up with 180 hp turbo rzr’s just fine. The only kryptonite I’ve encountered so far is deep water crossings as the six speed transmission’s fill/dipstick is definitely not water tight.
Wear a helmet brother!
Yeah I gotta be better about that.
What app u using
For editing or thumbnails or what?
This blew my mind.
Very nice I liked it keep it up
Thank you sir!
Mistakes were made. lol
A few failures. A few successes. But overall it was a huge success. 😂
