    Worst decision of my life was knowing about surrons when they where 3k and not buying one. Good video tho and thanks for the advice.

      Yes pretty insane eh.. I started looking on facebook, saw a few around 1.5k mark so spent a week scouring forums getting myself real hyped & when I've come to look to view, the only legit bikes that aren't death traps are circa 3k & 2020/2021 models.. 🤔🤔🤔 found a brand new one 2023 model from a store 5miles from mine @ 4.5k allegedly cheapest available....wish I had the spare cash to snap it up. Good luck on hunt brother any tips?

    just got one, 2000$ for one with 700 miles and some cnc mods and a bad controler ended up buying a used bac 4000 for 400$ on the way to get the bike and installed it at the sellers place to test it, worked great!

    i was looking on creagslist and someone posted a "sur ron 2023" they had DNM breaks and no upgrades and was listed for 5.3k i contacted owner and he confirmed he was firm on price and was telling truth. I cant anymore finding a good priced sur ron is frickin hard bru. :/

  • @joshuam6828
    @joshuam6828 Před rokem

    I paid 3700 USD for a Sur ron X Black Edition. They all list for $4k near me.
    Pros-JFG Racing Peg brackets, Warp 9 pegs, Prickly Performance Linkage, Shimano SLX Brake levers, pro taper grips, new screen, new seat.
    Cons- dropped for sure but not bad, horn doesn’t work, headlight didn’t work, already cut the wire, 6 pin connector is broken on both battery and harness side, Atleast 400miles on the bike, stock tires are almost out, stock brake pads are out, chain and sprocket are worn out, missing bolts
    The wire repairs were horrid. Just electric tape and wires that kept touching each other. But the chain and sprocket is worn to the point where I have slack no matter what. Thankfully working on this bike is like working on a Walmart bike. To be honest i think it’s a good deal for me just because all the cons I can easily fix and make better.

    Look for them on sale in other countries. Took me five minutes to find a 2021 for 3200$ in Canada with maybe another 2-300 for shipping. Also worth keeping an eye out for parts. If you can find a used chassis/motor in working condition the rest can be pieced out pretty cheap from people doing upgrades.

    I just got a Surron and the person that sold it to me told me that it’s a 60v battery, I looked all over the battery and it says nothing. How would I know which battery they put on my bike? Btw, I love your videos! Subscribed!

    The Talaria has a battery charge counter. You could estimate mileage from that too.

      At a certain point, the savings might be worth it. The sellers that want top dollar and wont budge on price, pass for sure, the its definitely not worth it, no matter how 'clean' and 'low miles' is claimed.

      Sounds like a good deal. Only thing with the x160’s is the motor is a different wind from the sur ron x and x260. Heard you can burn out those motors if you go above the 60v
