Please reply to this comment to let me know what kind of content you would like to see! I am thinking about making some vlogs where I talk about other stuff while scooting. I'm in med school and feel like I could share a lot of useful things if you're interested!
Wow, I did not expect to see you ride less than a block from my house! Palo Alto is a great place to ride!
Wow, small world! Yes it’s great, can’t imagine a better place to ride!
San Diego is better.. OB, pb.. mission Beach etc
Awesome video dude!! I really want to buy the GT2 scooter 😎
Thanks so much! So glad you liked the video:) I’ll be making more content, looking forward to seeing you around! And yes, you won’t regret it, it’s great!
With the turn signals, you can just hold the button down (left or right) and it will keep the turns signals on until you let go.
Very true! I guess this is the way to go!
❤️🧡💛💚💙 DAAANNGGGG……
Very adventurous.
thank you kind sir :D
First time I've ever seen a roundabout (what we call them here in the UK) in the US. Although the American lady on my work sat nav calls them circles.😀
Roundabouts, traffic circles, I call them both! They’re plentiful in the Bay Area it seems 😁 and my sat nav is Australian :P
Lived in my city in California for 35 years and they just built two of these roundabouts not long ago
@Dr. Bernie Babylon Nice video! Very curious how one can use these high performance escooters on a daily commute. Btw, what kind of gloves do you use, if you don't mind me asking and can you send me a link where you bought them. Anyway, thanks for video. Cheers!
Hi Friend! glad you enjoyed the video! the gloves i bought were from an outlet that sells discontinued stuff, so i cant link those, but i dont use them anyway, instead i use these, better wrist protection amzn.to/3OngB0p
@@DrBernieBabylon Thank you for the reply. Btw, what do you think about the GT2? Is it way too overpowered for a daily commute, or would you rather go for a lesser name but with higher long range?
@@MrSpeedyduck that’s a personal question! I take mine on the street and I don’t have to bring it on a bus or anything so the size hardly bothers me. Sucks I can’t really get it into my car easily though. But I love it! I wouldn’t feel as comfortable riding on rough roads with any other scooter.
nice guy i liked it a lot i'm following you from brazil big hug
Thank you! I really appreciate that, looking forward to seeing you around :) much love sir
i really want this scooter, but the price is to much for me right now. maybe next year! :)
Nice FPV (1st person view) of the GT2 without any bg music. How's the performance of the GT2? Have you tried out Race mode +Boost mode for serious acceleration?
Thanks, I really appreciate seeing you here again! I did use that mode in the video for a bit, but maybe you'd like a video where I ride the crap out of it exclusively in boost mode? Happy to make any content you'd like to see!
@@DrBernieBabylon Haha sure 🛴
is that a reserve batery on your top tube?
no its the engine speaker!
BIKE LANE DUDE..BIKE LANE!!!
do you have any problem in breaking system? an gt2 user in korea is experiencing front break error. the fromt brake sometimes doesnt work
I’ve never had the brakes not work before, if anything I find that I have trouble with braking too hard and skidding 😅
Actually... yes i am. will be making a video about it
speaker is balls
do you ever get to where you're going, but decide on not taking the turn and keep riding, simply because you don't want the fun to end?
Hehehe yes :P usually when going home!
@@DrBernieBabylon i'd imagine so. It would take a will power of iron _not_ to!
Hello what is the name of the bluetooth music box?
It’s this: amzn.to/3FmIUpR
Hello sir! I am thinking about getting this. I wanna ask you what do you think about it so far? Any problems, is it good? :)
I love it! But I am having issues with the brakes currently. I think it’s a fantastic scooter despite the issues, I don’t think there’s another scooter that has the overall quality of this one! See if you can get it from a shop that also has a warranty besides the Segway one, using the warranty seems to be a bit tricky for some. I’ll be making update videos soon :)
@@DrBernieBabylon The sell it 3,1k where i am from. looks like a good price to me. I know the sell it about 1k more on the usa for some reason. Yes the quality is the number 1 reason i am looking into this also its very pretty i think. :) only think i am scared of is finding parts if anything brakes cuz i dont have a credit card i only shop from shops lol i am old school that way i know :P
@@billgangsta539 wouldn’t that be an issue for any scooter? :D glad you can get it for a good price! Good luck with your decision :)
@@DrBernieBabylon thank you very much! drive safe. :)
Hi from Queensland Australia where you from looks awesome?
Hey friend! It’s the California Bay Area, definitely a special place :)
Nice man Where can I buy one for best price? Thanks!
I got mine here and I’m confident this will be the cheapest you’ll be able to find!

@@DrBernieBabylon alibaba? its not a scam right?
@@raginginferno868 this is where I got it from, and my experience was overall good, but I can’t really say much more than that! I personally don’t think it’s a scam but ultimately you should trust your gut if you don’t think it’s legitimate
@@DrBernieBabylon thanks for the advice
As someone who fixes these kinds of scooters for a living... Stop dropping your throttle so much.. If the gloves are making it harder to properly move your throttle and use the controls then DONT wear them.. This is not a motorcycle where you have vibrations and higher speeds to need such thick gloves. So stop abusing your throttle by just letting it spring back every time. You want it to last don't you? Segway is not known for good repair support. Sorry to come off as a bit mean but its very expensive and hard to watch when it looks like the owner doesn't care that much. Ride safe!
I appreciate the heads up! A firmware update just dropped that makes the throttle less jumpy, hope that helps! I’ll be more mindful of this. It’s more the fact that I’m always holding the front brakes that makes using the throttle a bit tricky 😅
@@DrBernieBabylon I have a Wolf King GT, does dropping the throttle also affect that type That type of scooter? Just curious because I never heard anyone mentioned that it's bad for the Scooter.
@@jaycarl1562 the throttle on the king gt is a 5 dollar generic aliexpress throttle. Don't worry too much about it.
interesting scooter
I agree! ive had people stop me and ask what it is, its got serious presence
Y do u keep popping the throttle? 😄
i was trying too hard to always keep my hands on the brakes, i don't do it anymore!
Has the gt2 gave you any problems at all jw because I'm wanting to bye one just so much but looks worth it
@@rikoher8176 its hard for me to 100% recommend it because I have some issues with the brakes and maybe some battery degradation, but I think it is still one of the best options. the high speed stability is amazing
How long have you hade it for? I just bought one I have about 30 miles on it now
Hey I like the speaker…. For music. The engine noises are just tacky. I don’t even like them when cars pump that sound threw the speakers
I was the type of person who bought heelys in undergrad bc I thought it would be funny lol.... size 14 adult heelys are not easy to find either hahaha. I agree, the speaker is totally cheeky and the engine noises are totally ridiculous... but I find that funny, I kinda like that its so quirky :D and it really does help people get out the way. maybe I can just play music instead and they will hear that coming...
@@DrBernieBabylon that was my plan to use the speaker with music and the horn to let people know I’m coming up. Does that speaker make the horn louder or it’s the same?
Right now I only have the speaker. I hope the scooter shows soon.
Also I’m interested to know is the Acceleration the same in eco and sport and the difference is only the speed limit or is the power cut back. And what about hill tests in both eco and sport
@@mike4food The horn and speaker are totally separate, but the horn is good enough as is for getting pedestrians to hear you! cars, maybe not so much....
Careful not to run stop signs mate lol
asleep at the handlebars lol... never again hahaha
whyr they so hazerdus
Hello
Hi there :D thanks for watching!
Why you didn't get off and walk it thru the tunnel like everyone else......Who do you think you are!!??
Nobody is perfect 🤷♂️
Why don't you mind your fucking business and let the. Guy have some fun
Watching this video I understand how this will be soon restricted to ridiculous level.
I rode super bikes for many years and I’ve just ordered P60 for commute because of ridiculous parking price in Miami.
So let me explain something.
1. Many European countries already restricted and even forbid use of electric scooters on public roads.
2. I have no idea why you are ignoring designated bicycle lane and using full traveling lane, oh… I got it. You are big boy now. When you’ll hit a car - you’ll damage it tremendously.
3. I don’t understand why you need going 40mph on the road in California, NY or South Florida on this cheesy thing (even beefy GT2 is nothing compare to anything that using public roads weigh wise and safety wise) where drivers are notorious for disregarding bikes, bicycles, etc.
Don’t get me wrong. I will unlock maximum speed on my scooter. For some situations when it might be needed. But not for every minute ride. It’s just stupid to expose yourself to such a danger.
4. You don’t need a racing gloves. I understand you think that $3,500 scooter needs $250 -$400 gloves. It’s not. Yes, it’s OK to wear protection. But when you start looking like a dirt bike enduro racing star - people who see you think that you are operating a rocket. Dangerous rocket. And that’s got to be regulated. Restricted. Forbidden.
It’s just the way majority of people think.
In conclusion I think that because of clueless people this e-scooter thing in US will go drone path. They will limit it to 15mph ( like already done in Europe ). They will make you go pay for license to operate. And some states will let you use only parks or private roads ( like some countries in Europe already did).
My apologies for negative reaction. I just want to be able to commute to my work with 20-25mph speed and no restrictions from the government. And when I want my adrenaline rush - I’ll hope on Ducati and lean it in the turns so there is no chicken stripes on my tires.
Do you. Not have anything better to do.. why do you gotta take the piss outta everyone's fun
Stop embarrassing those cyclists
