I actually don't mind the throttle delay. It allows me to choose whether I wanna creep at a low speed (smoothly, without jerking), or just take off. The stock X-Class is pretty versatile.
Hi Jack, I met you and Raj about 2 years ago. I purchased the identical X52 and love the work your doing. Please put me on the waiting list when you’re ready to release the product. I’m local and happy to provide real time feedback.. tmoney
Excellent. I hope it continues to work out and a package is offered soon. My 52V is ready and waiting. I wonder how it would perform with a higher watt motor added into the mix. Those stock tires are so noisy and I wonder how more street oriented tires would work for top speed and range. Keep up the great work
I'd rather have pedals with pedal assist on mine in case i don't pay attention to battery usage and it dies, i can still pedal it home instead of walking it. i already wanted one of these so bad before when it went up to 30mph...now i want it even more! lol I'd be pretty unsure whether i should even ride it on trails at all though at that point since it's capable of going that fast. yes it's still a class 2, but it can go almost 40mph. that's passing vehicles unless you're on main/busier roads, out in the country and highways. i hardly get to 20mph (top speed of my current bike) unless I'm going downhill or riding in late evening when there's hardly any traffic to look for. that and I'm used to the twist throttle on the ebike i have now, I've heard a lot of people say thumb throttles are easier. I'm yet to try out an ebike with that. also the one i have now folds and i can barely lift it at 45 pounds. i sure as heck won't be able to lift an ebike around 60? pounds like this one. it probably wouldn't fit in the backseat or trunk of my car so...a lot of pros and cons for me.
Really nice job with your machine! I've got a bike from China with a 2000W rear hub motor. It's pretty fast, but only a 48V battery. I wish I could up that V, but I do not have the skills to do it.
@@johnwilson7809 Used the bikes software to accept the higher voltage battery, changed the pedal position and added pegs so I can take another rider. It's perfect for me.
Did you mention the ah size of the battery? Is that battery the same case size as the original.. Or is it taller? I'm not sure I can get over 15 ah on the Kepler step through. The top frame is right over the stock 20 ah now 1 inch space on top of the battery left. Of course a wider battery case is no problem up to a point.
Jack, I keep coming back to this video and reading the comments as well. This has to be one of my favorite X-Class videos on RUclips. I like the thumb throttle as well. I had a thumb throttle on my Super73 and liked it so much I put the thumb adapter over the twist throttle on my X-Class. What are you plans for replacement tires on your bike? I went for the Shinko 244 as they are lighter than the 241's. The 244 weighs 5.89 pounds and the 241 comes in at 6.29 pounds. I looked at the Shinko 567 street tires and I really love them but they weigh 8.4 pounds each. The flimsy original tires that I pulled off my bike only weighed 2.5 pounds each. I've read that one pound of rotational weight is equal to about 8.4 pounds of static weight. So my Shinko's have added about 28 pounds of static weight per tire. Luckily for me, I'm finally on a strict diet and have lost 28 pounds in the last month. I've got two more Static tire weights to go and get to my goal of 195 pounds! LOL My stock X-Class would still go 31 mph even with the heavy Shinkos and my fat 280 pound ass sitting atop it. Of course acceleration was slowed a little and it cut battery travel range by 30%.
Yea I'm not sure yet of which tire but finding the lightest is my aim. Thanks for sharing your findings on weight. I was wondering what the stock tires weigh. I would love to try some speedster tires but not if they increase rolling mass.
Is your thumb throttle mostly an on/off or more able to modulate your speed. Really seems to me ebikes take a lot more power to go faster than 20 mph or so. Above 30 mph it takes way more amps and watts to get to 40.
anything over 20mph is less efficent the faster you go and the high surge adds up but people love taking a good thing and ruining it. There will be more stupid people, more who think they dont have to follow certain rules, and more who get into acidents. The point of ebikes is that you don't have register them but most want more speed yet dont want to deal with a motorcycle.
Was it a mistake to remove the pedals? Now you need a license plate, motorcycle driver's license, insurance, and can't ride on most bike paths. Because now you DO have a motorcycle.
Hey Jack does the battery have a 50amp capable bms? If not your controller will only ever see what the battery bms can deliver. My calculations say that bms is still delivering 30amps. With a full 50amps at 67v you should see close to 3400w.
Yes, the controller has a 50a limit and the screen displays amperage. In these runs the controller is hitting 47-48a and at top speed settles in at 25-28a as the motor reaches its peak speed.
You have any Sur-Rons left Jack? I’m looking to buy one, preferably used. I collect and restore vintage YZ80/100/125s, and I’m really interested in trying an EV next to see how it compares to the little 2 strokes.
im dieing for this upgrade gor my kepler, just wanna know how many amps from 52v20ah? thx again sorry but that was epic. i could pdeal easy 46-50mph with 56t chainring from 52t
I bet there would be huge gains (acceleration) even with a 52v system with programming like this one has. Get them to make a 52v version as well, with high start current. I'll be the first customer 😎
Are you not required to have the “bike” registered, thus requiring annual state inspections, since there are no pedals? I prefer pedals as well as a grip throttle versus the thumb throttle.
How can I reserve your kit 60 volt battery, display, 50 amp controller ? I have a x class 52 midstep and want to go 40-45 to ride on the streets of Las Vegas .
im hoping i can use but have to see plugs? i bought a mini 500c from a guy ar modded and i saw several people buy for xclass and said same as kepler but the display turns on gets right voltage but speedo or nothing else works and like stuck in locked, pas 2 position. but i switch to 52v 28rim and boosted speed but nothing and never heard again. i PRAY IT WORKS ON A KEPLER. i have two batteries 58.8v20h each i want to swicth to 60volt ahs?
HEY BROTHER PLEASE hit me up im trying to find someone to make 60volt battery in my stock case on my AR KEPLER, CANT YOU TELL ME WERE YOU got a pluginplay controller /display too ? without rewiring? thx for any help. and how many amps ing new battery from old like 52v ah to 60volt ah ? thx again looks pissa, i want speed and range run.
Jack, I really wish you would wear some better shoes along with some gloves, shin, knee and elbow pads man. Some animal or some person is gonna jump out in front of you and you’re gonna land on your joints and hands.
Hmm.. My Kepler shows 46.4 mph with only 72% battery when I lift the rear wheel off the ground. I see no reason you couldn't add a second battery and even vent that controller box. Maybe I can do this with the Kepler to get another 5 mph or so? Nice!
Hey Jack whatever happened to the car videos the dino testing stuff like that cars are a lot better than ebikes in my opinion and whatever happened to Roberto I don't think you've ever told us
He did tell what happend with scumberto. you missed a couple of videos if you dont know. also jack does tons of stuff not just cars [its always been like that]
I made tons of car videos and want to add other stuff to diversify my channel for a wider audience. As for Roberto, he left in 2020 to pursue his own dreams.

A lot of custom mods can look messy but the cable management and everything else is so clean
looks great, can you send the link where you got the kit from?
I actually don't mind the throttle delay. It allows me to choose whether I wanna creep at a low speed (smoothly, without jerking), or just take off. The stock X-Class is pretty versatile.
Bravo! Bravo! I can't wait for this upgrade.
When he talked about the hesitation with the acceleration all I can think about is older Chevys 😂😂😂 trust me Jack we get it
Make a tray under the seat and install an additional battery with a battery blender. That should be your next upgrade.
Nr.One… Huge Support from Denmark
Man, I would love to be able to buy that upgrade once you guys get the bugs worked out. I wanna keep my pedals though.
Same here!
Do u have links for the upgrades ? Would love to tinker with my bike at my own risks. But this would be a great start.
Wow! Very cool! Looks really clean.
What made you do a 60V upgrade and not the 72V upgrade 3000W motor? I’ve seen videos of the 72V x class going 59 mph
I think the bike is too light to go 60 . At 35 sometimes seems a bit sketch. Not enough weight. I wouldn't want to go over 40 on it
Hi Jack, I met you and Raj about 2 years ago. I purchased the identical X52 and love the work your doing. Please put me on the waiting list when you’re ready to release the product. I’m local and happy to provide real time feedback.. tmoney
Preorder is up on the website.
@@JackCecil I didnt see the details on the website. Can you shoot over the link?
What I meant... For the entire kit. I want the battery upgrade too.
I love this bike, looks soo good
I need moped videos in my life 😍

Those stock tires are so noisy and I wonder how more street oriented tires would work for top speed and range. Keep up the great work
I currently have a 52v x class with additional battery running parallel with a blender. If I changed to this controller would I get better top speed.
the acceleration difference is insane, cant wait for this to be ready to rock in time for the next season, much love from NY
It's really nice! This thing can do a wheelie now!
The throttle response on my stock x class is quite quick. I suppose there is a tiny bit of lag but it is much quicker than most ebikes
I'd rather have pedals with pedal assist on mine in case i don't pay attention to battery usage and it dies, i can still pedal it home instead of walking it. i already wanted one of these so bad before when it went up to 30mph...now i want it even more! lol I'd be pretty unsure whether i should even ride it on trails at all though at that point since it's capable of going that fast. yes it's still a class 2, but it can go almost 40mph. that's passing vehicles unless you're on main/busier roads, out in the country and highways. i hardly get to 20mph (top speed of my current bike) unless I'm going downhill or riding in late evening when there's hardly any traffic to look for. that and I'm used to the twist throttle on the ebike i have now, I've heard a lot of people say thumb throttles are easier.

Where did you purchase the 60volt battery and controler
I’d like to see you do a razor mx650 or rsf650 build. But do one after I buy one used so it doesn’t skyrocket the prices lol
Really nice job with your machine! I've got a bike from China with a 2000W rear hub motor. It's pretty fast, but only a 48V battery. I wish I could up that V, but I do not have the skills to do it.
I've now upgraded the battery to 52V. Now it's even faster. Close to 40mph. It's faster than my friends Grizzly v2 easily.
@@Docinaplane So you just changed the battery from 48V to 52V. And nothing else?
@@johnwilson7809 Used the bikes software to accept the higher voltage battery, changed the pedal position and added pegs so I can take another rider. It's perfect for me.
@@Docinaplane But same motor, same controller. Just changed the battery, correct?
@@johnwilson7809 I believe I answered you. Tell me, why do you care what I did? What's the point?
Wonder is something like this can be done with a zooz 1100
This is really cool. Do you plan to share the details on the parts you bought?
Like the upgrade setup. After looking to purchase I think this is going to be it
Did you mention the ah size of the battery? Is that battery the same case size as the original.. Or is it taller? I'm not sure I can get over 15 ah on the Kepler step through. The top frame is right over the stock 20 ah now 1 inch space on top of the battery left. Of course a wider battery case is no problem up to a point.
cool! would like to preorder the kit - any discount for another youtube ebike vlogger :)?
Hook a 3000 watt 80 amp controller to it and run the 72 volt battery and see what happens

It's very sensitive. I might try a full twist but i do like the thumb

Can you do this on the kepler

Hi its this ble to reach same speeds od grizzly? If the answer is yes ,,whats the diference of the grizzly with 2 batteries? Thanks man great video
Hi there! May I get info on where to get the upgrades?
Is the peddle option obsolete with the 60 v's?
Hey Jack does the battery have a 50amp capable bms? If not your controller will only ever see what the battery bms can deliver. My calculations say that bms is still delivering 30amps. With a full 50amps at 67v you should see close to 3400w.

Nice, I'm looking forward to seeing the field orientated control for extra juice. Is your new controller pure sine? And if so what branding?
How much does this setup cost?
Would this work on the New Version of the X class ?
What ever happened to this project? There's nothing on ya'll website. Did you abandon the project?
Can you make a video on how you eliminated the pedels and gears system ?
BADASH! New Sub. Great Video. How much money did you spend on the 7 MPH gain?
I'm not sure on my costs but the kit aims to be around 1k when finished and gains will be around 10mph with huge acceleration.
You have any Sur-Rons left Jack? I’m looking to buy one, preferably used. I collect and restore vintage YZ80/100/125s, and I’m really interested in trying an EV next to see how it compares to the little 2 strokes.
No sorry. They sold very quickly and are $5k now.
Please make list the links for part?
Battery??
time to get some kevlar gear
im dieing for this upgrade gor my kepler, just wanna know how many amps from 52v20ah? thx again sorry but that was epic. i could pdeal easy 46-50mph with 56t chainring from 52t
Are you planning on making one for the newest version of the xclass?
ya but where do you buy it? how much faster ?
How much did the total upgrade cost?
I bet there would be huge gains (acceleration) even with a 52v system with programming like this one has. Get them to make a 52v version as well, with high start current. I'll be the first customer 😎
The controller works with 52v as well. You can select voltage in the menu.
@@JackCecil good news!
Hi jack I own a 48v- class is there some kind of plug and play kit so I can do this to my bike?
Where did you get this kit to buy
sigh i wish i could do this on my ripracer :(
How can you call it a bike? its a motorcycle now!
just kidding i want one!!! this thing is cool
I need this like yesterday
Where can I buy this set up ? Battery controller and display All of it lol I need it
Where would I get the 60v battery? What is the lenght of the battery? Where can I get the exact 1 that you have please? Thank you.
Will this setup be available for Christmas so I can buy it for myself?
Really cool

Thanks for the video what size motor is that 750 or the 1000?
Wheel diameter of 20 fat tire is 26 not 22...
Where did you get that and how much?
Its explained in the video.
Where do I get the parts
Where can I buy this controller and battery??
Hi were can I get this set up.
Jack, what do you think of the super73?
Cool looking but I've never had one so I'm not sure.
Who has it ! For God sake this thing is harder to find then Sasquatch! Only place I ever see it is on You tube , and nobody has a link to it.
Hi great review 👍
That's a good upgrade from stock
🐍Extra drag from those hairy knees and arms, it's not really fair for those batteries and controllers 🖖🤙
