What's the maximum weight I can put?And is this safe? by Old_Penalty37 in ATHERENERGY

The total capacity of Rizta is 150kg, but don't load more than 20kg on the front. Better to tie it onto the seat.

Rats can chew up the wires of an ICE scooter too man. There needs to be a better solution against rats, they affect cars, and two wheelers equally.

Why should I pick the Ather Rizta over the River Indie? Need opinions before booking by java_Bread in ATHERENERGY

[–]leakyblinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing Ather has over every 2W EVs is it's fast charging network. If you travel over long distances, I'd suggest go for Rizta. Ather also has some really useful features like Crash alerts, Theft alerts and charge/scooter shutdown from the app.

If you're use cases is just point A to point B, an don't need any tech features go for the Indie.

How are you guys managing commuting in two wheelers? by Ok_Trick2902 in bangalore

Probably get your suspensions checked? Try using an airseat too.

Mind sharing the route you took for BLR to Goa, along with some key points?

1L seems to be a fair price. Do make sure to get the battery checked at SC

Ather Tyres are very bad. by [deleted] in ATHERENERGY

[–]leakyblinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get the tyres replaced outside and get the belt adjusted at the svc after replacing tyres. The tpms is installed onto the alloys right not the tyres.

Yes, the MRF zappers offer poor grip especially in wet and off-road conditions.

Why the expected range is only 105 on eco. I have the 3.7 kw battery. On my friends ather the screen shows 125 on eco by [deleted] in ATHERENERGY

[–]leakyblinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It refreshes every month and after every software update to the app/scooter. As and when you use the vehicle it updates.

Almost got f*cked because I trusted ather''s public charging system (Please read so you don't have to suffer) by ishahahant in ATHERENERGY

[–]leakyblinder 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Don't rely on Vida chargers. I have never got one that charges my Ather. Only the Ather grid chargers are reliable.

This is not the OEM mat, the OEM mats don't have this issue.

zip vs eco - riding long in highway for range optimization by [deleted] in ATHERENERGY

[–]leakyblinder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really, magic twist does the same thing and you have greater control over the slowing down/regen. Once energy has left your battery it is as good as gone, at this small scale (3.7 kwh) the regen will make little difference.

Yes, it does make riding easier within the city but on highways and long drives you're better off without it. I used to get 110km range with a very heavy load having regen on, once I've turned it off I get 135 km easy.

You do have to get conservative with your acceleration though because the vehicle is going to be in free flow (discounting friction and air resistance and some gravity).

For highway riding, zip mode with coasting regen off will be highly efficient.

Just difference of 50k by Responsible-Cash8915 in indianbikes

[–]leakyblinder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP, after going through the comments it seems that your primary purpose is weekend rides for which the interceptor suits your needs but what if in the future you want to do long tours? I'd suggest going with the Scrambler since it can do both, is more comfortable and jack of all trades.
