Top speed has to be 65 mph and minimum range of 100 in order for me to have any use for it. Where I live nearest town is 40 miles and the road speed limit is 55 mph.
Good series. Informative. Would have liked to know more about the company that makes it. US? China? When will they have more... I don't remember, out of three videos, you saying the name of the company. Maybe the link is in the description? Could have done without the training ride. Would have liked to know about the car you drove. But all around good video!
I have the UK version called the Moonster it was £2500 queen pounds. Another company calls them Artisan and puts another couple thou on the price, but all the same Chinese made budget electric motorcycles. Great fun around town and other short runs to work and such like. I like the total weirdness of a hooligans vehicle that is very sociable indeed 👍
I have been riding my Surron to and from work (weather permitting) without issue and loving it. Technically the X Bee should qualify as an Electric bike and i have the pedal kit on it, so no tag which is nice.
Hey I'm thinking of buying this city slicker the black version and I'm just wondering what I would need like license plates etc what would I need for it to be legal for me to drive on the roads? Edit: and do you recommend this motorcycle I have never had one before and I have never driven a motorcycle before but I want one for work and for riding round town?
Do u need regular auto insurance or can I use my accidental & medical insurance? I had a traditional motorcycle 30 years ago and don't want any full size bikes in this stage of life.
Hi, how to unleash (unbridable) for more power ? because in France the speed limit for this motorcycle is lock to 45 KMH (28 MPH) what is the operation to make ?
The Onyx brand is certainly interesting. I don't know how well they will behave in stopping quickly with much smaller disk brakes, but the range, cost, and simplicity are definitely exciting.
Put a 50cc gas motor on the bicycle for 100 bucks and go just as fast folks. 2500 i expect better. Hell another 2500, you could have a brand new Royal Enfield.
I've built a gas bike before. They usually top out around 20 mph. This bike will hold 45. I would agree the cost is somewhat high for it's range, but quality made.
If you want to go electric, it's going to cost more right now. Gas is always better for price for performance, and will be for a while. A 50cc bicycle doesn't have the frame strength, brakes, or tires that this does, nor does it have turn signals lights, speedometer, etc. As for the royal enfield, what's the point of comparing this to something double the price? For another 25K I could have a Tesla, but that's just as irrelevant.
seems useless with peg drag like this?!... I would prefer a bike I can go as deep as I want without any pegs that gonna drag or suddenly turn the bike around at high speed.. is not a safe way to learn sport bikes!
Range definitely leaves more to be desired. However, with the new controller firmware, it seems to add about 10 miles of range. Also, batteries are the most expensive part, so double range basically doubles price. In a future video, I'll be showing why I actually switched to a gas bike recently, but I already miss the CSC
I haven't ridden the eVader, but it looks like it has significantly more ground clearance than the City Slicker, which could be nice. The eVader seems to list 35 mph as top speed, and the CSC can easily do 45. Seems like a good pro/con comparison could be done.
You covered a lot of things that other's missed. I appreciate all the info! 👍
the range is actually kind of a turn off for me, but this is an informative explanation thank you.

Do you register this as a moped of a motorcycle? By far the best review I was looking for. You should do more test videos!
Thanks! We're working towards a range test video soon, but also a lot more motorcycle content. In Florida, this is registered as a motorcycle.
I loved your review thank you! Very detailed. I want one of these cool little bikes!
Thank you! I'll be doing a real range test soon as well, so subscribe and check back later!

Do you still have yours?
That's s nice looking little bike
Odd question, but can you move it while charging? (Thinking about a portable range extender)
I have been riding my Surron to and from work (weather permitting) without issue and loving it. Technically the X Bee should qualify as an Electric bike and i have the pedal kit on it, so no tag which is nice.
Yep, the tag hurts, especially in Florida, where the title transfer was $300
The Walmart bike isn't electric is it?
how to compare this now to the Talaria MX4 or XXX or the new Super Soco TSx? there is a lot now!
how do you register this thing, I would think you could register as a moped, and can you put bags on it?
In the UK bike test, the swerve has to be at 30 mph to pass! Not as easy as it sounds on a low powered bike.
Nice and clean video.produce more recording.
Thank you! Working on the range video now and posting more motorcycle content soon!
How do u lock it to keep from it being stolen? A couple guys could lift it in a van or truck 🚚 🤔
Do they make a windshield for it? How about after market?
Any update on the bike, do you still have it?
Is this specific red model available still? On the site I only see the 2020 model in black and white.
Sadly, it seems like new ones are only white/black, but you can buy the body panels separately it seems

Edit: and do you recommend this motorcycle I have never had one before and I have never driven a motorcycle before but I want one for work and for riding round town?
To my knowledge, this is a motorcycle in the eyes of most states. This requires registration and a motorcycle endorsement on your driver's license.
Do u need regular auto insurance or can I use my accidental & medical insurance? I had a traditional motorcycle 30 years ago and don't want any full size bikes in this stage of life.
Hi, how to unleash (unbridable) for more power ? because in France the speed limit for this motorcycle is lock to 45 KMH (28 MPH) what is the operation to make ?
You need a new controller installed.
Is it subject to registration & insurance like regular size motorcycle?
Insurance requirements vary state by state, but that's a yes for both in Florida.
Honda Grom electrified.
Linda está moto podia vim pro Brasil vende aqui
Could a person do trail or light off-road riding with this bike?
I would say the clearance is what would keep you from it. It sits very low to the ground.
Has it been reliable
my city slicker goes good is your's still going?
Still going strong! I sold it recently, but the next guy got the new controller firmware and it seems like it was a 20% performance boost
is it possible to have spare batteries?
CSC does sell other batteries, at a premium, however, of $1000. Much easier to just charge at your destination with a 120V outlet.
Following the maze-like course looks like it’s harder than riding the bike.
Is it manual or automatic? ❤️
It has no gearbox/clutch, so I guess you would call it automatic, but electrics commonly are
"You'll leave these guys in the dust." Wait till a bicycle dusts him at 65 mph, cause that Huck Stinger and Onyx RCR will screw em over.
The Onyx brand is certainly interesting. I don't know how well they will behave in stopping quickly with much smaller disk brakes, but the range, cost, and simplicity are definitely exciting.
Short wheel base equals Canyon Carving ;)
Thats the first time training bike ??? im gonna die on the lesson
Can it wheelie?
Only by shifting weight, it has torque, but not enough to lift the front on it's own.
Thanks for the video! But I do not care for the motorcycle school
So can I ride this with a moped license?
I think it would depend on your state. In Florida, this was registered as a motorcycle.
how tall are you????????
5 ft., 7 in.

just get get a honda ruckus for the same price.
Range is crap. Double it then it would be worth it. 25 mile range is crap. I have a scooter that I can get 70 miles out of

@@joeybrown8924 bey have you put out the new csc vid yet? Have I missed it?
45mph top speed?
This is a perfect road death machine, they run you over in a split second
Would you choose this over an evader?
