    Default ISO Info on Rawrrr Electric Motocyclyes

    A short time ago, a member was selling his Rawrrr e-motorcycle here. It peaked my interest and now I?m curious.
    I forgot who was selling it, but was hoping he is still here or if anyone else could chime in on their e-bike or e-moto experiences. Cheers!

    Not the guy but a friend of mine in Arizona bought a Mantis. He ended up going back to his Honda 250. He said it was fine but felt the performance/comfort/durability of his old Honda was better. Don't know if that helps but wanted to offer it up.

    All input is good input! Thanks
    Not looking to replace anything in the current stable, just supplementing and possibly adding a toy.

    Cool! That’s how my pal in Tucson looked at it. He is also getting a Super 73 to play with in the desert-yeah he’s done well for himself lol. He owns 2 of my old bikes and a few guns I sold off when I moved to the Denver area in ‘84.

    Sold my bike when I left CO. Didn't ride when I left the mountains.

    Getting the itch for a small bike for the mountains and dirt roads. A Suzuki TU250X or a Honda XR400 keeps popping up.

    Haven't looked into electric bikes, so not much help.

    I'd like to have one of these to keep in my truck. Probably have to air tag it to keep it from being stolen.

    That seat looks uncomfortable as hell. Would either have to replace it or add on a gel cushion to make it bearable.

    From my limited research. They are fast and fun but you will be limited by range. For around town they are great and bigger models have plenty of range. When you hit hills it takes a lot of energy to get up a hill and maintain high speed. So plan accordingly. Also battery is a wear item, but should last a while.

    That and if it can charge off the truck that would be an added plus. I already added a 109 gallon diesel tank that gives approx. 1900 mile range. Being prepared almost always pays off.

    Saw a small group of kids doing wheelies down main street in Parker on them (or something similar) the other day and then on the way home a couple kids were hauling ass down the shoulder of 36 between the flatirons mall entrance and the Louisville exit. They were keeping up with traffic pretty well.
