- In this video I make another couple of changes to my surron light bee x build and then get into more details about the Torp TM25 Motor and JXR chain conversion kit made for the surron LBX.
I talk about more facts and figures on the motor and how it feels and performs on the bike and also look more into the set up of the chain conversion kit.
There will be more future videos on the motor and the more detailed videos on the chain conversion kit so stay tuned for more to come.

Love the content bro, your the reason I got a sur ron
Thank you bro!! I appreciate that, i’m glad I’m inspiring you to get a bike and get riding🙌🏻🔋⚡️
Was watching your old videos and said to myself "when's his next upload?"
Boom! He replies to my comment and then uploads 😂
That little wooden hut you rode into, gave me RUST vibes, if you know you know.
Haha I couldn’t time it any better could I😂
I will try and keep uploading on the same days from now on, Wednesday or Sunday or both!! Trying to push out as many videos as possible this year🙌🏻.
Thanks for watching man. I appreciate you💯
Lmao i definitely know and now you say it i know exactly what you mean😂😂🔋⚡️
this build keeps getting better and better mate..great stuff keep on pumping
Thank you man, still more upgrades coming😁 definitely more content to come as well! Thanks for watching and supporting. I appreciate it🙌🏻🔋⚡️
@mattfrancisofficial I plan to do a full torp system, the same as you and primarily have the stock battery till I have enough money for a 72v40ah surge battery, how much range to do you get with your build?
I remember watching your video when you bought that surron brand new and slowly you upgraded it and put performance part that can help you and the bike it self now the bike looks really great.
Now you’re enjoying the bike riding it having an absolutely fantastic time with the surron.
I Know the bike it self have ups and downs but it’s just like every other bike that also have ups and down and that is the life line of everything’s
Great job Matt for making this video
Thank you my bro!! I appreciate you watching the videos and supporting my channel! It doesn’t go un-noticed. You must be an original subscriber if you remember me getting the surron brand new🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻.
These bikes definitely have ups and downs but it never gets boring and is endless fun to ride and upgrade this thing.
Once again, thanks for watching mate! Plenty more to come and still upgrades to do. Keep watching!🙌🏻🔋⚡️
Your welcome brother ❤️
the chain conversion kit is well worth getting especially if you have a 72v its louder but you won't be snapping belts every week
That is what i have been told by a few people and I will have to test this in the future when upgrading my battery. A proper in depth video on the chain kit will on my channel real soon too! Thanks for watching 🙌🏻🔋⚡️
I think you get to the starting point of jackshaft/bearings clicking. It happens after 1,5-2 years. Let us updated.
I know exactly what you mean but i had the jackshaft bearings out of the jackshaft a day or two ago and they were as good as new!! Even i was shocked at that. However, i did replace them as i had new ones all ready to be installed.
I know exactly what the problem was after some investigation and it will be in the next video on the chain kit in a week or two!! Keep your eyes peeled🙌🏻🔋⚡️
Get prickly bearings or even their new jackshaft you’ll be cherry
Love how the color scheme looks. Nice job!
Thank you! Its coming along nicely.
@@mattfrancisofficial im jealous trying to get one for my channel love your setup
🔥Clean video from a clean guy🌟
just in case has not been written down in comment form yet, even if it obvious for everyone watching I volunteer to have it on the record:
Your color matching and subtle stealth dark bike and cloths style need to be pointed out.
🤔Perfect balance between minimal but the right amount of orange to not cross the "over-the-top" line 🔥 .
As a fellow stealth-ride-enjoyer,
keep up the 🔥content and the swag, it will not go unnoticed sir!
Haha thank you my man!! I’m glad you said it out of all people💯. Colour matching is a big thing to me and like you say its best to keep it at a standard thats not too much!!
I appreciate you my bro. Ride safe 🙌🏻💯🔋⚡️
Surron aftermarket exists because: more torque, speed, range and less voltage sag. People started upgrading after Surronster introduced the BAC4000/72v combo a couple years ago which is still more impressive than a TC500 with any 72v battery I tested. It's really hard to beat the BAC performance, and Torp themselves are recommending their new TC1000 to everybody who gets this motor because they know that people at this level want more performance which is a no-brainer without upgrading the battery first to see what you're actually comparing it to
You’re absolutely correct about the after market. I’ve heard mixed reviews about the BAC controllers and i know so many people convert from BAC to the Torp controllers. I met gbear literally yesterday and he said he prefers the torp over the BAC8000.
Obviously torp are going to recommend the tc1000 over the tc500 because they make more money from it and it makes their annual sales prices look more impressive on paper.
I’m more than happy with my tc500 especially on the stock battery. 🔋⚡️
@@mattfrancisofficial The point is that you can’t compare these things without really testing them so reviewing an aftermarket motor with a stock battery is like doing half a review
Another point I was trying to make is that the TC500 feels kinda weak even against a BAC4000. I’m gonna guess that GBEAR had his 8000 set on 550 phase amps (or less) instead of 700 which is the limit of his TC1000 and BAC8000? There shouldn’t be a huge difference in performance from what I know but yeah there’s also other reasons to like either one
Not knocking BAC but BAC is kinda a thing of the past, Ebmx and Torp are way better than BAC if we’re talking about Power and tunability and Plug n Play which is everything to someone upgrading, and having a review with a upgraded motor and controller Ona stock battery is still a viable review because there aren’t people everywhere buying batteries due to how expensive they are there’s definitely a good amount doing it but most are just getting controllers and calling it a day until they hit range issues or the range issues don’t bother them, I’ve got a fully modded ultra bee, Talaria Sting and a LBX, I had BAC but Torp & Ebmx tunability and features just out perform a BAC Anyday
@@joem8601 I ain’t knocking bac a couple riders ik use them but if you’re apart of any surron,talaria online group and go on huge meet ups hella ppl say they would rather go ebmx or torp, but not soon since money can be an issue for higher end controllers Bac is more of a budget build brotha you can find them anywhere, I’ve had a bac and x9000 before the x9000 has excess wiring but it’s not hard at all to install but if you want real power like you said torque high speed and acceleration and are going 72v and want that buttery throttle response x9000 v2 or torp1000, those controllers can push way more phase amps than a bac8k I hate KO but even a whole KO controller and motor setup is still one of the fastest but lacks throttle configuration, ebmx controller and motor is one of the fastest too, and the main thing all of those controller I mentioned have a Fully WaterProof construction and the Bac doesn’t like at all, so to future proof yourself any of those controllers would be better, and once again not hating on BAC but it lacks in a lot of aspects if we’re talking power and acceleration and even features they come with when the x9000,Torptc1000,KoPro all out perform Bac8k, you won’t find many ppl with Real builds that push power running a bac8k and winning races, but in the end I hope you enjoy your Bac controller man it was fun to use when I had mine🤙
@@StingOnSteds Nah you’re bugging bro lol
In one review, people tested the KO’s, BAC8000, and x9000, and found that the BAC provided the best experience. Newer gadgets may look good on paper, but that doesn't mean they're the best. The x9000 had issues in its first year, and even the v2 still has that excessive wire harness which is the biggest drawback when installing these things on the bike. Tuning isn’t really tuning with an Eggrider or an app if all it takes is changing a number (changing settings isn’t really tuning), and most BACs have apps for adjusting the same settings that every other controller labels the same way. If you don't have access to a custom BAC app, you can use the Kilowatt app, which is even better and simple to use for tuning different motors and changing any setting.
I connected to it for the first time to tune a new (aftermarket) motor and it took me only 2 minutes.
Pretty much everything else is the same or similar, and making adjustments nowadays is easy with every aftermarket surron controller
Hey mate next time you need grips try these: PROTAPER NEON MX GRIPS - HALF WAFFLE. A lot cheaper than the pillow tops and I find them to be a lot more comfy! Thanks for the content from a fellow Sur Ron rider
Thanks man i’ll look into those grips in the future! I do love the pillow grips though!! Glad to see another rider watching and commenting on the videos! Thanks my bro🙌🏻🔋⚡️
@@mattfrancisofficial I was super close to getting the Torp controller but got a TV instead lol. I've had my sur ron about a year now and falling in love with it again haha. I had my setup super awkward (tall bars and seat riser kit) I guess and my bros put her back to stock. Feels like a new bike that I can throw around and am comfy on. Now I just want to ride all the time lol!!
What are those circle things for that you put on the grips
I believe they are called grip donuts, they make it a bit softer on the thumb and finger that rubs up against the rubber, especially on the throttle side! 🔋⚡️
bro we have daylight savings time in the US also.. spring forward, fall back.. 💯
I know US did! I’m jealous of all the countries that don’t though. I mentioned the bit about LA because either way they get much nicer weather than the UK. We get about 2 months of decent sunshine and temperatures then the rest is wet, cold and miserable 😂😂🔋⚡️
My thing is why not just get an ultra bee which already comes with 74.volt 55ah instead of spending money upgrading light bee
Good question, all depends of preference and I got my surron like 2 or 3 months before the ultra bee came out so I may as well upgrade the one I got and when/if I get bored of the light bee the ultra bee is always an option🙌🏻🔋⚡️
i have got a talaria sting r and got kicked of eveywhere i have went i went deep into forest and police drove deep into the forest and kicked me3off , that place is sick where abouts is it ?
That’s crazy!! Especially if you are making an effort to stay out the way of the public eye. I can’t disclose exact location unfortunately bro but there are many locations like this, just a case of finding them 🙌🏻🔋⚡️
new here love the look of this also what’s the name of your light ur using on the front ?
Thank you man!! Good to see a new viewer getting involved 🙌🏻 It’s just a surron bar light, plenty of them available from different places. Although this is my third one as they are only cheap lights and tend to give up after a few months. They dont like getting very wet and on my last one the cables were so short they got ripped out the back of the light from turning the handlebars and it constantly pulling the cables. They look much better and are much brighter than the stock lights though🙌🏻🔋⚡️
@@mattfrancisofficial i see no worries thank u
Are the real protaper grips better than the knockoff ones?
The real pro taper grips are a lot better than the fake ones I got. They feel way nicer and last ten times longer than the knock off ones!🔋⚡️
What about the tropical country, you like it?
I could happily live in a tropical country 🙌🏻🔋⚡️
Do you have a link for the store your buying from?

@@mattfrancisofficial I have an orange/black MX4 build going too. Thanks for the link to those pegs. They are fire!
Nice one
My bro!💯🔋⚡️
Standard ron or xxx m8 ?
If keeping it standard then xxx isn’t a bad option but if upgrading it then got to be a surron bro🙌🏻🔋⚡️
We need. New vid 😂
😂🙌🏻 i’ll keep them coming my bro💯🔋⚡️
