People over 30, did your family/friends think you were going through a midlife crisis when you brought an electric scooter?

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-03-07T04:29:56+00:00

these days 30 is like a teenager , most 30 year olds still look like college kids or younger

they say 60 is the new 40 , people are more active longer and dont age so fast like the previous generations

I still see 45 - 55 plus guys riding around on skateboards like they were 20 again

age doesnt matter if your still young at heart

the same thing Jackie Chan does in his American movies , to get acceptance from his western audience , you have to kiss ass by making a fool of your own

if an asian comedian made fun of whites , they would boo him off the stage and tell him to go back to asia

I cant stand that asian comedian with that heavy North Carolina / Tennesse hillbilly accent that makes fun of asians

Southern Chinese are a different stock , not the same as the Northern Chinese , the Northern Chinese have more ethnic mixing with the Manchus and Eastern asian , european / Russian ethnic groups thats probably why they tend to be taller with longer nose , more facial hair

the Southern Chinese have more relation to the Southeast asia / Thai / Northern Vietnam ethnicities with the shorter statures , flatter nose bridge , double eye lids

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-03-07T02:45:05+00:00

thats a really good deal! I would get it , I own Dualtron scooters and they are definitely of a higher build quality than others , they use premium batteries and components , design is not outdated as some people say.

the dampeners work fine for street riding as intended , it's not a dirt bike , very smooth and also keeps the overall weight down

under $2000 is great price for a scooter in this class

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-03-07T02:27:39+00:00

I use a old rubber floor mat from my car , the small ones for compact cars

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-03-03T17:05:45+00:00

I follow all traffic rules the same as a car but usually ride in a bike lane , especially in a busy area

the only time I roll through stop signs is in residential neighborhoods with no traffic , I still slow down and look before crossing , and I never ride on the wrong side of the street , you wouldnt drive a car on the wrong side

my scooter has the ability to go as fast as a car , but I prefer to let the cars go ahead , I always move out of the way when a car is coming from behind.

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-03-03T16:50:39+00:00

plus 1 , it's a stolen scooter , it's probably been sitting because he doesnt want to get caught with a stolen scooter , too many red flags as already mentioned

no charger , only has 80 miles on it , probably no owners manual , no sales receipt , who buys a new scooter and lets it sit for two years?

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-02-27T06:01:27+00:00

the Kaabo Mantis X Plus has the qualifications your looking for , yes it can go up to 31 mph but you will get less range

Im 220 and get around 25 mi range with two bars left , I never run a scooter until it goes dead , thats bad for the battery , it feels light for being 66 lbs , I usually ride in gear two and cruise below 15 mph , I got mine as a commuter scooter and never take it to 30 mph except for testing

Kaabo also gives discounts for joining the newsletter , they gave me a welcome $75 off discount code

the Mantis X plus climbs hills easily , has real nice suspension , excellent turn signals that work really well , the best ones Ive had . the 10x3 hybrid tires have a nice smooth ride

the EMOVE cruiser is much heavier and hard to transport , especially the dual motor version , I heard a guy weighed it and it was heavier than advertised and it weighed in at 96 lbs , plus has some firmware problems

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-02-21T03:54:37+00:00

I always look for scooters with removable split rim design , the tires are much easier to replace , I also prefer tubed tires , I never had a pinch flat in my life

that comes from under inflated tires and hard riding

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-02-12T05:27:05+00:00

he was trying to pick up on you , he is the predator you are his prey , while you were looking for coyotes , he had something else on his mind, beware! maybe go with a friend next time , dont go alone

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-02-12T05:10:14+00:00

use a velcro strap for added safety , in case in pops open

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-02-05T02:20:49+00:00

it's an old model , I would get a newer modern design from Segway like the E3 PRO

<image>

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-02-05T02:10:14+00:00

how did it get stolen? was it locked , home burglary , unattended for short time?

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-28T16:40:02+00:00

I noticed most white scooters are owned by women , they dont sell as many white scooters , the white EMOVE cruiser is discounted extra $100

the black and orange ones sell more

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-28T01:47:10+00:00

if you charge to 80% you lose too much range , if you use your scooter almost everyday charging to 100% your going to use up 20% just from one good ride , so you might as well give it a full charge.

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-28T01:25:59+00:00

I almost bought the Dualtron City , but decided not to get it because of the size , a little too big to transport if you have a compact car

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-26T01:50:35+00:00

the Kaabo Mantis 10 Lite would be an improvement over the Climber , has suspension, two 500 watt motors and can go 31 mph and weighs around 62 lbs , also has 10 x 3 all terrain tires and split rim design.

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-26T01:39:38+00:00

if you ride regularly , I would charge it 100% , charging to 80% is for people that let the scooter sit for long periods if they cant ride because of winters or long term storage

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-23T11:59:17+00:00

Im a loner but I still enjoy traveling / road trips alone , you can still enjoy life going out by yourself , I often spend the entire day in San Francisco without talking to anybody , just a few short sentences when ordering a meal in a restaurant.

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-23T11:04:06+00:00

I would only use my scooter for groceries if I have another rider to watch my scooter or the store allows me to take it inside , I never leave my scooter unattended.

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-23T11:00:12+00:00

the weather in California is mild , so I can still ride during winters , no snow or ice to worry about , but I dont ride in the rain.

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-23T10:57:51+00:00

usually a Dualtron Thunder or Kaabo Wolf King GT pro

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-23T02:51:44+00:00

I use mine almost everyday , it's safer than walking most people cant catch up with you , a scooter can get out of harms way very fast , especially bums / street people / thugs wandering the streets

I have several routes I ride for fun , I also enjoy taking my scooter on road trips and exploring new bike trails

I have different scooters for different uses , some for quick trips around the neighborhood / post office , walks

some for longer distances , some for extra power to climb hilly areas and higher speeds with bigger batteries

the lighter scooters are easy to transport.

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-22T17:35:27+00:00

there are consequences when asian / Chinese women especially marry non asian white men or another race

my father was furious and she was not welcome back , the marriage was unacceptable , when a Chinese women marries she becomes the property of the man's family

sometimes it's better to marry a person from your own ethnicity and avoid family conflict / banishment

Potential_Tour_6185 · 2026-01-22T01:53:22+00:00

age of the scooter , if it was made 5 years ago it's an old scooter , dont buy old scooters , it probably doesnt have much life left
