I commute 30 mins into Chicago for work via train, then need to walk 5 blocks after that to my office. I’m definitely seriously considering this instead of an e-scooter due to how portable it is and I can easily transport it on the train and under my desk at the office
damn i might have to order one of these, saw everyone riding them at the American Honda show in Torrance last month! thanks for the review as always bro
Since there's additional cargo area, I would think Honda would allow plugging in an auxiliary battery for more range. 12 miles can be a little limiting...
Was wondering about this; thanks for the review. Gotta hope they work out the setup speed to go faster in a future iteration. (Would've loved to be a fly on the wall at the corporate meeting when the engineers demoed the setup/breakdown speed and confronted the Honda executives...)
@@RunPlayBack I suppose the seat post especially mystifies: they could have engineered a flip-up mechanism unfolding from storage that keeps everything attached; and no matter what it would take to accomplish, one lever action for the rear wheel feels like the maximum sensible! Promising product anyway; in downtown NYC for small apartments with walk-ups, this can become an alternative to electric CitiBikes.
If the battery range was just about 3 miles more, I'd consider it. But the range just falls short for my office commute. They won't allow ebikes inside or let them charge them for safety reasons
@@sound2loud Unless you're talking about plugging them in to a cubicle socket which is on a long circuit and not designed for multiple battery chargers drawing amperage.
Sure! I mean I was exaggerating a bit! There's a quick shot of one of my friend's whose about 6'1" or 6'2" and he was able to ride it fine. Weight capacity is about 265 lbs. It's just a super small scooter so mileage will vary on how comfortable it would be for various riders of all sizes especially on uneven terrain. Like for me, I rode it through my city in bike lanes. And without suspension and a hard seat it was pretty rough by the time I got back home. But smooth roads and short distances should be fine for most.
Are you in mode 1 or mode 2? When you first turn it on it automatically goes into mode 1. Mode one is a lower top speed and will not move unless you physically give it a push start. Mode 2 unlocks the top speed and it will go from a stop. And to change modes it’s just double press the power button
This is basically a heavier less compact stand up scooter. Nice toy but not really an improvement. Better of with a Jetson Bolt pro if you like modding your toys.
For now it looks rather useless -- as the last mile transport it takes too much effort to fold and unfold, and for something more adventurous (let's say going to the hiking route entrance which is 1-2h walk from the station) is not suitable because of the range & lack of suspension. Another question is how it handles non-flat roads... performance and safety wise... quiet common in Japan so I guess Honda thought about it?

Can't wait for mine. Was on backorder. I'm getting it this month😊
Nice! Hope you like it! 👍
Putting a “Lifetime” decal on each side would be the perfect addition to make people think you’re riding around on a folding table😂
This is the legit tutorial i needed. Thank you!
Glad it helped!
you're only going to fold that thing so many times before you just leave it unfolded.
Unless you're bringing it on a subway or bus... Or even to put in your trunk.

Love this. Going to pick one up tomorrow. What I'd really like to know is what kind of phone case you were using? Please drop a link🙏🏽😊
damn i might have to order one of these, saw everyone riding them at the American Honda show in Torrance last month! thanks for the review as always bro
Haha yeah they're pretty fun!
What cell phone mount are you using and can you fold it using it? I’m used to Ram mounts on my motorcycle and mountain bike.

@@JustinLazaro anytime! Happy to help!

Haha yeah, I mean it's like both completely ridiculous and completely sensible. Which is probably what they were going for.

@@focuspulling Yup for sure...all great points! I'm just amazed at how popular it's gotten. The Honda brand name goes a long way.
I'll have a video out in a few days. I just passed 1200 miles and have a 36mile range. The speed limit is still the same but we'll work on that next.
@@HondaFit4Adventurethats awesome! Cant wait to check it out!

Safety reasons always is an excuse. They are safe to charge so that is unfortunate.

Honda name has a great heritage! Therefore I feel this doesn’t live up to the heritage as Honda could have made something WAY BETTER
If it’s extremely dependable like all of Honda products, I feel it will slowly become a household product.
It's fun and coll this Honda device.
Please tell us what's the name of that mobile phone holder you're using. Thanks.
If it was like 15 pounds lighter i feel like more people could comfortably carry it also they should design it as a backpack not a suitcase
im.235 its Awesome!!!
I mean it's only a 300w motor, going uphill it's gonna struggle. I'm trying to buy one now to use at work
Needs a nice RPB wrap! Can't wait to ride it!
Do a wheelie!
Okay that thing is sick, I'm about 5'5" so size shouldn't be an issue then
I came here after seeing Hert’s short, then a Herz Van comes past. It’s meant to be.
You keep mentioning you can’t imagine anyone bigger than you on it. Would you mind sharing your height/weight? That would help a bunch! Thanks

@@RunPlayBack nice!!! Thanks for the feedback and reply. Definitely looking forward to trying one out.
Just got the call to pick it up and I am excited to try it. I don't need it as I have a few ICE and electric toys. Just had to have it.
Nice enjoy the ride!
Thanks!
@@JustLikeParadise please share your experience…
It fun for a last few mile stored in the trunk. Excellent build quality but it has destroyed my Buns and back. 🤪
The old one is definitely better IMO. But this is pretty cool for small around town stuff I suppose
How tall are you?
can you wheel it around closed and just guiding it with the suitcase handle?
Kinda but its a little awkward because its so low to the ground
Wouldnt it be cheaper just to buy a regular bicycle?
where do I buy
My 1st start issue,Battery was full but pull throttle the moto cant move..what the problem of my motocompacto?
Are you in mode 1 or mode 2? When you first turn it on it automatically goes into mode 1. Mode one is a lower top speed and will not move unless you physically give it a push start. Mode 2 unlocks the top speed and it will go from a stop. And to change modes it’s just double press the power button
mans is riding a credit card
Does it require the app to ride?
Nope!
It looks like a gigantic MICRO SD card adapter plus that looks like a PS5
You're better off just getting a go track scooter
It’s fuckin cool, okay?

Moto honest compacto review
This is basically a heavier less compact stand up scooter. Nice toy but not really an improvement. Better of with a Jetson Bolt pro if you like modding your toys.
I'm planning to get this. My only dislike is that the unfolding and folding process is a little more time consuming than I like.
I have 1 and after like 10 or so folds i can now open in in 30 seconds or less
I'd rather get a go tracks

Anything that isn't a smooth surface would be very uncomfortable.
I hit 25 in mine then the dash stops working

Waste of money considering you can get fast, lighter, and more distance at half that price
What do you recommend over it?
Looks like a PlayStation
This thing sucks really but glad a toddler can enjoy it 😂

Fold it and throw it in the dumpster.
Literally a scooter with a box around it. Dumbest thing ever
I hear ya. But there's a few others things I would classify as "Dumbest Thing Ever" before this though.
very silly device
Ok Dark Vador
Clever. How long did it take you to come up with that?
How tall are you?
5'5"
@@RunPlayBack thank you, I can guess the ratio of the bike and me. Thank you again.
