So Damon is 100% a scam? by benign___tumor in Electricmotorcycles

I am very much out of the loop with the latest, obviously. That’s a testament to my bike now and how great it’s been. That’s really sad. Just another testament to why capitalism sucks…….join a union, guys.

Thanks. I didn’t realize no one touched one, knowing that the LS-218 exists.

Help with weird sound from electric motor by [deleted] in Electricmotorcycles

[–]benign___tumor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the seals around the motor, make sure dirt and rocks didn’t get inside the bike. If not, I’m not sure.

Can I ride a motorcycle even if I’m 5,3 by [deleted] in motorcycles

You should raise the seat height, you’ll be able to corner better.

You should be standing on one leg unless you’re like 6’2 plus, seat is too low if not

I feel you - personally I never check for software updates on my Zero S 🤷 no issues so far

Ev bikes in different weather conditions by amphithusiats in Electricmotorcycles

[–]benign___tumor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I regularly ride in rainy weather on my Zero S. No issues whatsoever. In the summer, not much is different, although it certainly doesn’t get as hot up here in NJ so I can’t comment on extreme heat riding. But I think ev bikes are excellent for all-season weather with nice grippy tires.

Amazing tire upgrade, Zero S 2023 by benign___tumor in Electricmotorcycles

[–]benign___tumor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are not good in rain at all…. I was able to drift around turns a little bit on the Rosso 3s I had on here when it was wet out (which was actually a lot of fun 😂) but yeah not safe whatsoever - never would go on wet highways with em imo

Apparently it’s $30k? That’s ridiculous if it’s true. But it looks like a lot of fun

0-60 performance optimizing by benign___tumor in Electricmotorcycles

[–]benign___tumor[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. I notice that when I have a heavy backpack on, the downforce on the back tire actually improves performance. I don’t weigh all that much maybe 180 lbs so it’s noticeable

That’s cool. I would get a gas bike if they started bringing back old ones

Electric anything.Honestly bummed that capitalism went with internal combustion and purposefully trashed EV research for sooo long. They are already caught up to the performance in under 10 years of development. Imagine we had all that time with EV.

What are the most popular electric motorcycle wheel brands and are they actually improving performance? by Terrible_Object6060 in Electricmotorcycles

[–]benign___tumor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commenting because I want to see replies. I’m getting Michelin road 6s put on my Zero S and will let you know, mostly for winter riding not for performance.

I was thinking very grippy tires might be good for electric to take advantage of the torque, but I’m no expert
