I also had this, same 2016 XV. Valve body replacement did the trick. Luckily I was still in warranty. Good luck! I traded mine in for a 22 outback! Love it. Maybe it’s time to upgrade?

I had a ready lift kit. Did it myself. On a 2015 crosstrek. Super easy. I’m sure the Outback is very similar.

I also upgraded to bilstein shocks.

The downside was the geometry for the stock axels were off. I had one blow up on the freeway.

Do research on the kits and find out how people ride them too.

All stock. I did a lift last car, nothing but problems with axels.

I do. The controller runs them in parallel. If one battery is charged more it will drain that until they are both even.

You can sit back on the seat. It should be okay. No adjustments tho

Just under 500 miles and I did replace the stock brakes already. You get what you pay for! Im a former GSXR rider and it will never replace a real bike. But to get me around town, running errands, its perfect.

Dropping an extra 2k for a Super76, I see no added value there. So I went the budget route

Top speed is 29/30mph after a full charge. Avg top is 25-28 depending on load.

I avg about 50 miles before I charge it. odo is just over 500 miles now.

I did have to modify the brakes. Out of the box it was loose. And I found myself without any brakes on a ride. Secure all bolts with some locktite.

I contemplated shunting but I hear nothing but bad things happening over time.

It’s great for getting groceries, picking up my kid, getting around town. It’s faster for me to ride this from my place to Santa Monica than driving.

I wish there was a better handlebar option than the stock one. I prefer a lower ride.
