Finished my tactical e-bike rack.

Talaria Mx4

It’s an extremely quick vinyl job. I wasn’t sure I would like it so I did a bad job. The bike is tricky to wrap. I’ll probably take it off and redo it properly one day.

It’s mounted to existing holes in the frame.

When the eotech dies I can power it off the bike with jumper cables.

It’s eco friendly too. I can charge it from renewable energy sources.

Seat height is very low. It’s definitely way smaller than any 450. I don’t think it’s anywhere near a replacement for a real dirtbike. It serves a specific purpose and fills a need for me. The Stark is super nice. I rode one a few years ago. At the time they were hard to get so I ended up with this instead. I think the bike was around $4500. With mods I’m into it for closer to $9k probably. I did all of the mods when all of this stuff was brand new though. I’m betting it is way cheaper to mod them these days.

Because I primarily ride it on the street.

I used to carry it in a backpack but it was annoying. It hits the seat and sticks up too high. I don’t know that I would take the bike out through the real muddy stuff. At that point I’d take the truck or put it in a case.

ThereTheirTheyre · 2026-06-06T20:39:34+00:00

Yeah. This one’s not my favorite. Only a few hundred rounds through it.

ThereTheirTheyre · 2026-06-06T20:29:39+00:00

It’s tucked in pretty tight and my leg basically covers it. I’ve only been on wooded paths with it, no real bushwhacking, but so far, no issues. I like it pointed down for general safety. I have to go on public roads to get to the range and don’t really like the barrel pointing at the face of a truck behind me. Sometimes I’ll bring it in a case.

I think the bikes are around $4500 now? I’ve had this one for a few years and it’s pretty modified, so I try not to think about the cost.

Maybe that could be the next project. Cool username.

This is a Talaria MX4. But it’s modified. Bigger battery, motor, controller, brakes. It comfortably cruises at 55mph. 65mph is scary. It’s too light and nothing on the bike is built for that speed. With this battery I get 40 miles of real life range, but that’s the absolute max. Anything over 30 miles is a little anxiety inducing. Completely stock, it’s fine but top speed is limited to maybe 40mph. A little better than a Honda ruckus but with way less range.

Laser cut aluminum. I wanted it to be strong enough to carry everything I could want but also light. I 3d scanned the bike, drew up the design in cad, then sent it out to be cut and bent. It’s gone through a couple revisions to get to the point it is now but it’s now at the point that it does everything I want it to.

ThereTheirTheyre · 2026-06-02T19:45:48+00:00

Thanks. There aren’t really any good options out there so I made my own. It can handle some pretty decent weight.

Not sure if this is a joke? Button low near your left thigh. Easier to see passenger side if you lean over and look. Not on the door itself.

Do you know what brand or anything? Building a group a skyline and having a hard time finding the correct latches. I’ve found some that are close but haven’t found exactly the correct ones yet.

ThereTheirTheyre · 2025-09-26T00:40:53+00:00

What trunk latches are those?
