I won't be the one changing my tires. Good video Thank you.
😂😂😂
Good call lol! This definitely wasn't easy 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂 I feel you same here I'm won't be changing no tires
@@UnderiteEntertainment yep too hard lol
Bro. Can you help? I need a 125mph tire that can handle 40kw footscooter 10in to 14in will fit as long as it fits 6.5 rims. Any suggestions. ?
I know that I'm late watching this video, but I feel your pain brother. I went through the same process, but with a different scooter. I did find an easier way to do put the tubeless tire on the rim with little to no need for zip ties. You will need to use the swing arm of your scooter. If anybody has seen the tire change for dualtron rims, that's where I got the idea. The trick is to put the tire back on the rim partially, then install the motor back on the swing arms with the lock washer and nuts hand tightened, after that you will use one of your tire spoons to make a fixed point for tire to be nudged into the motor and finally with the other spoon guide the tire into place while rotating the tire by hand. You won't scratch up the paint but you will sweat a bit. Mind you I did that by myself on a Blade GT(same 11 inch tires) it is manageable solo.
Good advice, i appreciate it. 🙏😁
Jjajajjajajaja. Creí que yo era el único que sufría con las llantas. Yo uso llantas viejas y tengo una dura, de relleno duro, que utilizo para hacer presión y no dañar el eje. Pongo la llanta viejita o la de relleno duro en el piso y ahí trabajo, no sobre una mesa, que es complicado con la presión que necesitas poner. Mis hijos me ayudan con sus pies a pisarla, también.
Sí, para inflarla, la llevo a una llantera.
Me encantan tus vídeos, son reales. ¡Buen trabajo!
🤣🙏
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 you said inmotion is changing the charging ports for yellow version is that already done or they going to send a new batch out with the new ports
@TheRomabull its supposed to be the new batches moving forward. Which includes, the Midnight, The Yellow model, the Orage RS Lite and the new Blue haze color. 😎👍
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 do u know when the new batches are coming out I might get one next year lol
@TheRomabull they are already releasing now. But there is a delay in the shipping due to them coming by ship to dealers. Its like the Super Slow shipping time lol
Changing tubless tires is easier with three hands if its your first time. Yes glad you mentioned a hand pump or electric pump wont work airing up the tire. I used a compressor set at 125 psi . I will slways choose split rims and tubes over tubless. I bet you will never complain about a shop charging $80 to change a tire 😅 great information in the video.
@Alan-pk4qu thank you. Yeah i wish i had an extra pair if hands to help. Lol!
I did change my tires both the front and rear to self healing tires. This time with better equipment like a jack stand with a hole in the middle for being able to put the bolt thats on the wheel through there helped get the tire off the bead and i also ised this gel grease stuff called Bead Buster which was an even bigger help to out the new tires on the rim along with rhe ziptie method and that there was a HUGE help. My difficulty level from changing the tires this time went from a 10 which was hard to a 6 which is moderate but can be done lol.
Good job on the tire and great video, it's def 10/10. After a few practices it doesn't get much easier lol. Difficult job and it's even harder when you have to film it, well done!
Thank you very much. 🙏🙇♂️
“On a scale of one to ten, this was a fricking ten”…LOL Good job though and being honest. I always run into stuff that’s a pain in the ass like when my wife buys furniture that has to be put together… Pain in the butt! Keep the videos coming man like them a lot.
Hahahaha. I know the feeling of that too. Thank you so much for the kind words. Honesty is exactly how im going to keep this channel going. 😁👊
Good video. thank you!
🙏😁
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. 👍👍
You can use tire lube to put the tires back on. Makes it so much easier. Also you can use a ratchet strap to help inflate too.
Yep, i unfortunately found out after i did this lol. 😅
Like #6 great how to video even tho i dont own one lol one day ill keep riding my rs5 pro for now 😂
Thank you for the positive feedback. I wish this RS had that split rim deal. That would be much easier for a tire change lol 🤣
You get better the more you do it
Thanks for posting up this content Louie. Very helpful! I have put some "flat out" tire sealant in both of my RS tires. Hopefully it will do its job if I ever happen to get a puncture.
You're very welcome 🙏 😁
My brother.. Good to see you're in good spirits and feeling well. Bro I'm purchasing a "VNOM 72volt 50 Amp w/ 65amp controllers." The old Bronco
Love that escooter it would have been great if they have a Split rim version Hate changing tires like that Great review 👍thanks.
@BadmanahBadman yes definitely! I wish for that as well lol. It has gotten easier to change the tires on it. Ive changed a total of 10 pairs so far trying out different tires for another friend that has the yellow RS. I bought more tools to help with the tire changes. Makes it easier like from a scale of 1 to 10 where 1 is easy and 10 is difficult, my experience with changing rhe RS tires is now a 6. 😁👍
Man. Some tire change huh? I feel yah
Yah unfortunately that’s a downside of electric scooters...the dreaded tire replacement/fix. No wonder all the companies are preaching their self healing tires 😅. Most people would have already thrown the wheel and tire over the fence out of frustration haha. Great walkthrough though. Gives people a good idea of the tools necessary and some of the problems they can run into. Super helpful content.
🙏😁
Very nice job ...new subscriber
Thank you very much. 🙇♂️🙏
Same thing happened to me this past Saturday rear wheel had to be replaced but I couldn’t trust myself so I took it to a shop.
That was a smart choice. Shops usually have the appropriate tools to do this type of work. 😅👍
Need this vid up
Enjoyed the video 👍 Good for letting us know how long it took.
Great video carnal
I'm also in LA.
Ktown to be specific
I terrorize these streets on my HIBOY S2 pro
It broke and I'm thinking an upgrade is in order
I'm thinking a kaabo.but one of the shorter ones
Really boss..15mph😅sidewalks maybe
Ah perhaps a Kaabo Wolf Warrior X GT would be a great choice. Its closer to the ground and it has incredible speed its also like 1/2 the price of the RS i have.
That had to be a nightmare. As my girlfriend loves to say, "Man plans, and God laughs."
Yep.
I think its better to remove all the black paint on the outer part of the rim so that every time you need to change your tire it doesn't bothering you,just buffing the outer part of the rim to make it smooth and it looks additional design
That doesn't sound like a bad idea. Almost like having a chrome lip on the rim with a black wheel insert. That sounds pretty cool.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 yeah i think it's the better option rather than reattaching paint for the side that damaging the paint during removing tire
That's right get your hands dirty 💪
😅🙌👨🔧
My brother how come you don't run with the Run Flats. Don't be afraid to use two plugs at once for a tire issue. It works
I used two plugs and that didnt work. Like i mentioned in the video the only reason i didnt want to go with the run flats at the moment was because these tires are still pretty new, financially speaking it would be a waste of money to not use up the original tires first and then swap out to the run flats which are definitely a better choice. 😎👌
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 brother those run flat tires have save me so many freaking times man taking out a 2 and a half inch nail a month ago not losing a drop of air and would have left me about 2 mi from my house which is a walk of shame
Great video. @Louie question, what are you thoughts on the BlueTran Lightning by mini motors? Just order one
Ive seen it but i havent had a chance to test it out. But i have heard good things about the 72 volt 35 Amp hour battery model, the only bad thing i heard is the charge time is really slow because the company sends you a 2 amp charger which can take about 25 hours to charge the battery from 0 to 100% or you can purchase the fast charger for an extra charge and have the scoorer charge in about 7 hours. I do like the split rim idea for the tire changing. It makes it easier. It's still challenging to get the rim edge off, but nowhere near as bad as my RS 😅
I ordered it. Should ship out today. Hope to have it near end of the week. Thanks bud.@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983
@@HAPPYJACKRC awesome! 😎👊
My man... you need the put some tape on the spoon before you use it, so that way you do not scratch the rim. After that, you need the put your foot on the edge of the rim and put the spoon at 12 oclock, and the other one at 3 oclock, some zip ties at 6 and 9 and you are good to go. I recommed put the self healing tires, because the regulars are shit. Good luck my friend, good content by the way, and i what a shame the paint of that rim
I would've kept throwing more plugs into it till they stuck. We use 'em all the time with our ATVs and trucks. Hope there isn't something with those scooter tires that the plugs don't work well.
I think the issue was that these tires aren't really that thick, so that's probably why that didn't work. I was thinking another option would be those mushroom style plugs or even those screw plugs, which i did end up buying to use as a temporary fix.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 Thanks for the heads up might get some different tire plugs just in case. That was funny tho, it's always a pain putting tires back on. You almost had it with the spoons at 18:13.
@@Ammothief41 Wolf King GTR made it easy to remove the tires for repair, should be a slandered for all high end e-bikes
Great video what kind of camera do you have on there?
On the RS i have a Wolfbox G930 with a Wolfbox WDR rear camera as the one that comes with the dashcam is a pretty low quality one and not very heavy duty for Scooter use.
Split rim is so easy!
Here's a a question why do you have voro motors on your inmotion instead of inmotion original?
@Carubines oh, thats because this Midnight model is an exclusive color to VoroMotors, and they chose to customize the motor hubs with their branding. I personally would have preferred the original "Climb Hills With Ease" logo. 😁👍
i changed 3 sets of tires .it never get easyer 😂
Oh no man lol! Well thats good to know because im positive that this will not be my last time ill be fixing a flat or changing a tire. 😅
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 yes cant wait to see the next fix 😂😂😂
@dukicha lol! I know, right? Hopefully, the next part that needs fixing in the future won't be too hard to fix, lol 🤣👌
No reason for those wobbles brother.Errex damper take care of that. The guy at the shop says that the company wants you to buy pucks for the steering damper continuously
Im sure they do. I already found a mod to fix that issue. 😎👌
Thats why i go with scooter that has split rim. Very Easy tire changing process compare to this one.
I've had to replace my rear motor
On my RS but when I've put it all together the motor won't spin and is locked in place. Can u help with some advice PLEASE?
Oh, that's definitely not good. Can it spin freely while the scooter is powered off? If not, then the motor may be defective, or the caliper may have the rotor/disc locked in place or if it does spin freely when the scooter is powered off, the polarity of the wiring inside the motor may have been wired wrong at the factory and will need to be exchanged or replaced by inmotion. I just took a look at my wiring and noticed that there is only one direction it can be installed. I wish i could be of more help.
It doesn't spin freely with or without power
@DanielSmith-dz1qv oh in that case its definitely defective. Did you get your motor from VoroMotors or inmotion?
Yeah I’m disappointed they never made them split rims like Dualtron does. This is why I got rid of my Emove Cruiser
Split rim is so much easier. 👌😁
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 I am back and I got a question. Can you please link me to the patch you put under the tire and the rolling tool to press the patch and glue? I have the same thing you have and want to save my tire by trying it. Thanks
@@ElectricScooterMan i have the links in the description for everything i used in the video in order. 😁👍
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 oh thanks man!
@@ElectricScooterMan 😁👊
Hey what is that screen you have on the handle bar ? Can you give me the link is that a rear camera?
Absolutely! That is a Wolfbox G930 2 channel Mirror Dashcam that i got from amazon. The cool part about it is that it only needs a USB C cable plugged into it with a power bank battery that can do 5 volts at 2 amps or 5 volts at 3 amps. It does waste about 3 amps per hour so depending on your riding time you may want to get a battery with the amp hours needed for your use.
Here is the link for the dashcam and the upgraded higher quality rear camera i am using on this scooter.

@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 Thank you!
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 Another question and thanks for replying, do you have to get the rear camera extension cord, or the camera cord is long enough, i got this scooter just waiting for it to arrive, i think this looks cool you can look behind u. 👍🏼
@tiggy1559 not a problem glad i can help. It does indeed come with the cable for it. I didnt do a video on wiring up the scooter for the dashcam but i do have some pictures on my channel under the (Community Tab) using a smartphone that shows how i ran the cable for it as well as hiding the GPS antenna for Speedometer information on the dashcam in the RS.
Excellent tutorial and Kudos for not editing out the problems even if it's at your own expense. Thanks a bunch
Gave me issues about steering damper on RS
I got to partially solve the wobble issue under speed 3 which for me goes up to 52Mph but on my GPS ot said 49Mph. However if i try speed 4 and go above that then i do still experience speed wobble but its not as bad as before but my steering damper is tighten up all the way to MAX 😅
How are you going to balance it? You need to use equalizer.. keep the crap in it.
Unfortunately you can't on this type of motor. Usually, you can put little wheel weights on the inner part of the rim while having the scooter on a jack stand. The trick is to spin the scooter wheel slowly and see which direction the scooter tire goes and where ever it stops add a weight to the opposite side so the scooter wheel doesn't start to spin the opposite way. It's a little hard to explain, but im going by some videos i seen but it doesn't look all the great on the ones that i seen. So im hoping whenever i change the tires to the new self-healing ones, i dont have the same issue. 😅
The what not to do video 😂
Pretty much or at least what tools to buy to make the installation of a tire a bit more easier. It was easy to remove but hard to reinstall lol. But i got one of those larger size motorcycle jack stands that have that square hole in the middle which should make it easier to remove the tire off the bead. 😁👍
Was a good tutorial. I learned some very useful information. Keep them coming bud👌
How long of a wait did it take from the time you ordered your RS Midnight? I ordered one a week ago and have yet to receive any tracking information.
@humboldthunterfishfool4817 hi, since mine was a pre order so it took me like 2.5 months to receive it. Once i got a tracking number i got it within 48 hours because VoroMotors was under a lot of pressure to send the scooters out due to all the delays there was.
@humboldthunterfishfool4817 thank you very much. 🙏🙇♂️
Bullets holes in the table if you have the money invest in motocyle jack with the hole in the middle . 😆 first time always the hardest.
Hahahaha yeah man i sure did damaged that table lol. I actually bought a Motorcycle jack with that hole in the middle you are talking about. I wish i could have bought it sooner. It definitely looks like it will be super helpful. 😁👊
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 i need to get me that inmotion rs but also want Nami burn e max . Hard to decide right now lol
@TheRomabull that is definitely a tough choice because both scooters are excellent! It's too bad you can't test ride both and get a feel for each one and then get the one that feels the most comfortable to you. Its one of the reasons i chose the RS. The Deck and handlebar stem height adjustability is what one me over. Once i did more research on it, i then found pur about the Massive battery it has for long range. The Nami Burn E is also an incredible scooter what an awesome design.
@@THEAVERAGEGUY1983 that average guy song is stuck in my head . Thanks man haha . Is that midnight version charging port different or more water resistant then the yellow version
@TheRomabull 😁👊 it is i deed different than the Gen 1 yellow one. I know Inmotion is now changing all the charging ports like the one i have now. As for water proof, im not 100% sure. It does have a Silicone plug that covers the charging ports but you have to make sure its covering the ports right to give it a seal. Once the main cover is on. So i think it is. I know Ginger on wheels did a video on water proof testing the RS recently so hopefully his RS doesnt get any rust or charging port issues.
Story here is don’t do a job without the correct tools
Yep 😅
