MotoTec Venom High-Performance 72V/12000W Electric Dirt Bike, White (SAK70326)

Definitely recommend but now!

Ok this review likely will change. That is once I get to ride the bike.... and it has changed. Read my addendum at the end. You need to know that this bike, at least the one sent to me, comes a little less built than I was expecting. The main chassis looks to be set up. I have watched a lot of videos of unboxing similar bikes. I don't think that at all makes me an expert but I thought I would be getting into the same amount of build. Install the front tire and the handlebars, fender, hand control...... no. Install the back wheel, chain around the sprocket. Figure which axle is for the back. As there are absolutely no instructions or owners manual. Nothing to tell you what the bolts are for. Wait! You have to break the chain at its master link and thread the chain through the plastic guide. After you install the guide. I guess not that big a deal but pain nonetheless. Ok there are other issues with the rear but let's move on for now. Next thing I notice is the lack of forks sticking out the front. Really? I have to set up my own forks , handle bars are bare so complete set up. That kind of bugs me. If I wanted to build a bike I would have bought a kit. I have been so excited about this bike. Barely been able to sleep. I grew up riding dirt, deep in the woods. Been a lot of years though. I'm am still very hopeful that this is just a rocky start and I'm just sniveling. Truthfully, it probably wouldn't fit in my life, if it wasn't a battle to the starting line. I will update once I get to ride it. I'm just upset I won't get to ride it today. Must say it looks great and seems stout. Packed well, except at least an owners manual. I have found it difficult to find much info on these bikes. Regardless, I can hardly wait to throw some dirt! 3 days later... wow! WTF? WOW! This bike is a screamer, or actually is pretty quiet but it extremely fast. Be hanging on when you give it throttle. Especially when you hit the ERUPT button. Yes, there is a button that launches you like the bike just got shot out of a volcano. Venom is a good name, it strikes like a deadly snake. Really, I am a big guy. 6 foot 265lb and it whips me around very good. Some small issues. I think it needs some kind of mapping possibly and the cable throttle is junk but none of that matters when you feel the torque produced at the wheel. Really need an owner manual. There is a fluid site glass the looks like and smells like gear oil. Would be nice to know why the speedometer doesn't work. Other than that. Just ball out. Send it. It's not BRAAAAAAAP any more it's ZAAAAAAAAP!
