  • Today I show you exactly how to buy an electric sportbike from Alibaba.com.! Alibaba is basically the Chinese Amazon where you can source vehicles and tons of other products from manufacturers. While you can get things for very cheap on there, it is a little more work on your end. But if you're a real man, you can do it, and get a decent electric motorcycle for the absolute cheapest price.

    Seems like you could have a good business getting the Bikes, putting on all the good mods, and selling to all of us that would buy them from you.

    As a Chinese electric motorcycle manufacturer and seller (we also based in Wuxi, Wuxi city is one of the biggest ebike production base in China), I am very happy to see your video. Let me understand this industry from an American buyer's perspective. I have watched your videos several times. so detailed and perfect, but now the shipping cost is much more expensive than the times before covid. Can I use this video as training material for our company? I'm considering making a video from a manufacturer's perspective to post on CZcams in the future.

    Now you're helping people get it the right way and save time and money.

    I really enjoyed this series. I have so many ideas for my own electric bike once the warranty has run out. A bigger battery and speed controller are the way to go. My Evo3 Moonster thing, is actually registered as a MORAKOT but it did come with a Certificate of Conformity to register it in the UK. That means the manufacturer just prints a certificate without the machine really complying the uk safety rules, but whatever the scam, it is a straight forward process to register it for use on the road.

      You can get a higher power charger to significantly improve charge times. I'd have to ask lord Curt about fast charging, but I'm pretty sure the Li Ion cells wouldn't like it. But you could probably get a full charge time down to like 6-8 hours with a beefier charger

    An easy way to get these registered might be to buy a wrecked Kawasaka Ninja 250 frame with a title and use that. However, lately it is very difficult to get anything from China. There are still a lot of sellers offering items for sale but after you send them the money they just keep stalling and saying it's shipping but never actually ship anything.

    So I'm curious... when I ordered the nice sales lady (Grace) sent me an option list including upgrade to the 8000w motor and upgraded battery. Although the Alibaba site said 8000w looking at the specs of the 1500$ bike it was only 3000w. Once I ordered she sent me a purchase order that listed the 3000w motor and then another line item with the 8000w selection and, again, the upgraded battery. This totaled 2500 including shipping to my door. We'll see what I actually get, it has been built and she sent me a video of the bike. It is set to leave Shanghai in the next few days. I will let you know what I actually get!! Lets hope it is actually the right one. Also I suspect there is only one manufacturer of these particular bikes and a variety of resellers.

    Many factories have the same owner. It's not just a China thing. It's wherever there are regulations. For example: owner has 3 factories...2 are sweatshops with suicides and inhumane conditions. They have 1 factory which follows all the regulations. The products manufactured at the factories not following regulations get driven to the 1 good factory through the back. They then pretend everything is made at the 1 good factory. I know people that have to travel to China to inspect the factories. Everyone (the customers of the manufacturers) pretend they don't know what's going on but they all really do. Another example is Italy and luxury leather goods...same setup but in many cases they work the immigrants from Africa almost to death then refuse to pay them. When they ask to be paid the owner has people beat them up.

    ok, i watched the series. it was sad seeing the rip off side. now i am watching the "condensed" how to get it.
    it came to me, why not buy that ninja 250, used or bad engine for the frame and brakes etc?
    you upgraded and basicly bought all new electric parts, right?
    the ninja has a title. easy to register.
    how am i doing? can a capable person assemble what you have this way?

    Do you need a motorcycle license in the state of California to actually register the thing?

      Yes. Anything above 50 or 70cc, you need a license. Electric I don’t know bout that bro.
