After watching a number of your videos, I just subscribed. I’m 66 years old and ordered my first scooter yesterday, and can’t wait till it gets here… a Varla Eagle One! So I’m deciding on the accessories while I wait. I like the laid back approach of your videos. Thanks and keep em coming!
Too much scoot for an oldie. Hope you're ok!
This is hilarious I did every one of these steps when I was waiting for my s2 pros I got for me and my gf. Btw love the channel I just found it about a week ago and I bought my scooter based on your review so I appreciate it man.🛴👍. Keep the great content coming
Nice!! Awesome scooter!! 😎👍
Make sure the store you bought your accessories from has a good return policy.
You don't want to be stuck with items that you have no use for if you have to return a scooter or P.E.V.. It adds up fast over time.
Hundreds of dollars for me.
If you do need to return a scooter or PEV, don't let the seller lie to you or bully you into keeping it if it is defective.
My experience:
Bought Emove Cruiser, arrived 8 days ago.
Seat does not fit (I could not install the seat on the seat post. I then took it to a local bike shop, they gave up after 10 minutes, was told and physically shown that the seat won't fit.), motor loses power after about 10+ miles of riding in mode 3.
Motor:
Was told that was normal at 1st, then they claimed that the motor just magically fix itself when it did not.
Seat:
Basically was told that there is nothing wrong with seat, they discredited every single bike shops in the country because they claimed that the scooter has not been around that long.
Even tho electric scooters have been around since 1915.
In the process of returning the scooter.
Bought a 2000 watt scooter 2 years ago.
Battery died 6 miles into a range test (30+ mile range). Battery could not even take a charge. Top speed about 18-19 mph (advertised 40+ mph), chain tensioner broke (causing chain to come off every 1-3 minutes).
12 mile trip took 2+ hours and almost had to go to the ER because of Heat Exhaustion.
Battery:
Wanted to send me out a heavy duty battery charger. Would not work because I think the battery had gotten fried because they where using 2 different types of fuses in my 2 batteries.
Chain:
Wanted to send out new chain tensioner.
Speed and other stuff:
Never addressed the other issues.
I ended up returning the scooter.
It took a while to get all of my money back.
The store lied to the BBB and Attorney General saying I stole a battery from them, without giving any proof.
I disputed the charge with my bank.
Another Emove Cruiser in 2019.
Sent me out wrong scooter. Did 2 unauthorized charges.
Returned the scooter, had to dispute the charges with bank.
Great vid as usual dude. I make sure I tell any newbie scooter riders to check out your content. Just got my knee-elbow-wrist pads. Better safe than sorry for sure. You may only fall once but when you do, JESUS do they come in handy.
What I did while I want for my scooter, watch RK9 rides about scooter's about this and that about scooter's, while I just got my zero10x last weekend 😊 finally for a month of waiting
Awesome video man. My name is Mike. I’m waiting for my Vsett 10+R to come from China. I ordered it direct. I live in South Alabama near Mobile. Hopefully I can find some other people who want to go for rides. I’ve also ordered a Kingsong S18. Addictive is an understatement. 😁
Love the video. Thanks for the info. I ordered the kaabo wolf king last week.
Nice job. I just got my first scooter last month, a dual 500W motor Kaabo Mantis 8. Love it.
Got a Gotrax XR Ultra arriving tomorrow, was pleased as punch to discover this video and subscribed right away!
THE PERFECT VIDEO TYSM
Wow mine is coming Monday. This upload was meant for me. I'm getting the "Hiboy Max"
Enjoy dude. I bet within a couple months you’ll be itching for another even faster scooter. Trust me lol
It's a great scooter. I have had it for a year and put about 1600 miles on it. The only issue I had was the rear fender. It cracked multiple times. But the warranty covered it. Also don't ride it in rain because once the charging port stopped working. And it was because of water damage. But other than that it is a freaking tank.
Got my tracking number on the 6th after 4weeks can’t wait for my varla eagle one! The wait sucks but it’s definitely worth it when it arrives!
Great vids to man been watching ur channel since I started looking in to scooters keep the content coming!
Thanks for your video def get scooter near future and e bike
just ordered a kaabo wolf king cant wait for this thing to show up!
Just ordered the varla eagle one and pre ordered the varla Pegasus which I hope too see on the channel soon!! Great video man keep em coming @rk9rides
Am waiting for my Hero S10. Should be here by next week.
Thank you so much for All your videos. They are the best on here by miles.
Currently watching this video right now while I wait for my NIU KQi2 Pro to arrive! ❤🎉
Waiting on a S2 pro. My first ever scooter. Love your video's
My guy, this is hitting to close to home lol. I'm waiting for my Warrior X from Voro to come. I've checked, and rechecked my order form so many times it's embarrassing. Keep up the great videos.
Greetings from Finland! 🇫🇮 I'm waiting for my BOGIST C1 pro 500W for 6 days already. Luckily here is bad rainy weather, so it doesn't feel so bad. :D
I'm waiting for my Apollo explore to come so this was the perfect video
Same dude! The Apollo Explore will be my first electric scooter and I can't wait for it to arrive!
@@sethedwards81 hopefully it's a good as I think it is
Ya gonna enjoy it I got the older model and love it! I could only imagine the new model is better I’m currently waiting on the Phantom LOL (keeping my Explore as a back up!)
@@Quepasaaqui718 Sweet that’s good to hear! The wait is killing me though I just want to get out and ride!
me and my Roommate both ordered a Gotrax Apex which is coming next week, can't wait to get out and explore all over town together! :D
I used to be an avid non-electric scooter user, so this will be my first time trying electric. Impatiently waiting for my NIU KQi1 Sport Electric Kick Scooter to arrive!
I have a Binged all your videos a few of them multiple times
Im waiting on my dualtron storm limited so excited 😊
Nice video, i'm waiting to purchase a Kugoo M4 because here in Italy we have a max 500W motor restriction and that scooter was the best quality-price choise.
I planning on getting a faster scooter from China, and something tells me that the weeks will fly by if I watch your videos and maybe go to Reddit. Thank you for make content that speaks to us. Good work 👍
I'm waiting on a mantis pro se. Super excited its my first quality scooter
Urban Drift Gobi S. Love it 🤘
I’m on Preorder for the Vsett 10+ with a month left to go crazy.. RUclips likes to now taunt me with all these videos to show what I’m stuck waiting for 🤣😂✌🏻💕
Yeah waiting on my Ghost now... living in Clearwater FL this is going to be my beach cruiser. Don’t have to deal with parking or as much with traffic. This month long wait is brutal
nah bro your videos are probably the best out of any electric scooter youtuber 2nd would be electric scooter guide but yours are first because you do voiceovers just like berm peak does aka sethsbikehacks and I love his videos and yours are really good to so dont say that your videos are bad because there not at all there really good.
Waiting for my Vsett 9+ to arrive and your videos have been really helpful. I need to pickup some tools to make adjustments that are a bit better than the basic alan keys. Not sure if there’s much of a standard for sizes for screws and the like on scooters
A decent set of Allen bits and a 13/16 AF socket for the axle nuts on the Vsett and your good to go👍
Just picked up a Hiboy Titan that the owner rode 3miles. He was scarred so I got it for 1/2 price. Thing is amazing and is my second scooter.
Ready to get my varla pegasus!
At 2:45 "you can also use a GPS tracking app". What do you recommend for Android/iPhone to track speed, distance, elapsed time and export it as a log file that can be used to graph results?
Your video is great information to have while waiting for my Vsett 10+.
Just got an Emove cruiser , stoked! Have you ridden an Emove cruiser before? Would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks and keep videos coming! Appreciate it
It's actually really funny, I was just about to watch this video when my electric scooter arrived 😂
Bro felt the same way waiting on mines I tracked that thing like 100 times lol
Waiting on my varla to come in. Should b here in one more week
I think I might of got ahead of myself. Got the wolf warrior 11 plus. I'm a new, never before ridden a scooter. Got some time. But not to many videos of the thing.
Varla eagle one coming in Tuesday..yay!! Super excited ,been watching your videos!!
You gotta do an unboxing video
How long was the wait? I ordered mines may 6
@@frankwhite8589 its a long wait and mine was to be here 11th but it has to stay in warehouse for a few days so mine won't get here till 17th. Super excited 😄
@@jaxsbaker2807 when did you order it?
@@frankwhite8589 march.30th.
Ive been planning on buying the kugoo g booster
Waiting on my Weped.
Any chance one of those unused P settings on my Varla Eagle One have anything to do with my power output on the USB port? When I turn my lights on, it turns off the ignition and shut the scooter down. I'm running the SolarStorm 12000LM Bike 3 x CREE XM-L T6 LED Bicycle Lamp Outdoor Headlight Kit. It will run off my 10 year old Dell SlimBook lap top but not my scooter. Sup wit dat?
Been waiting on the varla eagle one for 2 months now…ugh this scooter better be worth it because the service so far is horrible
The wait is all part of the fun😁 having said that 3 weeks for my 10+ to arrive felt like a lifetime 🤣
Currently waiting on my 10+ and it’s like torture 😭😭🥺with a month to go..
@@strive4208 it's worth the wait bro, gear up before heading out though, it's quick🤪
Have u had issues with your hiboy titan not getting up to 25mph in turbo mode but only gets up to 17mph in turbo mode on a full charge?? I'm having that issue
i own a Yume Y10 i recieved 10/28/2022. i live in oregon and its too cold to ride it and i dont want to risk the battery getting damaged. so until it gets resonable tempuratures, its in my room and i tend to hug it alot (this is just me)
lol that freaked me out a bit seeing you ride around UVU campus I go there
Damn, I've been waiting since April for scoters to restock in the UK because Brexit sucks and they can't get them into the UK. Then I found somewhere selling the Nanrobot D6+ in the UK which is a lot more pricey at 2,400 usd but probably the only option I have to be fair, gotta wait till end of this week or Monday next week for it to be delivered can't wait.
😮 This Happened to me today. But I'd Ordered Somethings for my Scooter So I Wouldn't have to wait on them. A Light, A Horn, Extender for the Handle Bar Just to get me Started. So When my Scooter arrive I'll Already have these things. So Now I'm Enjoying my New Apollo Ghost Scooter. 😀🛴🛴🛴👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Make a video about changing tires on the Varla
How good is the joyor s5 800w ?
I ride a dragon gtr v2 any tips on it
Full face helments save lives (mine multiple times) , A month ago a car going 30mph came straight at me from my right side while i was at a pedestrians crossing going 8mph, i got up before the driver got out of his car and walked to his car (everything hurting) we talked for about 15 mins and he left, i got home and the next day i got my broken left wrist plastered, getting hit by a car hurts, as well as crashing at 40mph, cant recommend either but i feel strong walking away from such things with minor injuries.
Where are you legal to drive fast on an electric scooter? Because my dream is to get the Vsett 11+ and drive 50mph (80kph) but I don't know where it is legal
Hi big fan of your videos. How is the highboy as to pro holding up since you got ? it because I was thinking of getting one for work
Still love it! Holding up well. Works great for running to the store or to go get food
Thanks appreciate the response. I just had one more question and so sorry to bother you how is the customer service for getting a battery or new tires afraid of
Brah I was doing all of those tips that’s why I searched this
Can spare keys be made for our scooters from normal keys shops? I still have my Evercross H5 I lost a key last week.
I would imagine so, but I'm no expert on that
Waiting for my Dualtron Victor
Hey just ordered the urban drift gobi s and am waiting on it now, I wanted your opinion rk9 what you think of it compared to the eagle one. Which was my first choice but saving the $600 won in the end. Do you know much about the gobi s?
Don't know much about it but it looks like a good scooter
I'm in the process of looking at banggood scooters, waiting to potentially wait for my first "serious" scooter.
1:17 how did you crash?
wow this guy know ALOT
Eh i have ordered too many things off wish and aliexpress im not even thinking about it getting here i check it when im looking at other things other than that im just living my life when it gets here it gets here + if it doesent arive then i dont get bummed out like i was waithing for only that thing last 2 monts
How about covering legalities and rules for scooter riding? I realize these are evolving quickly, but my use case is as secondary transport for van/RV travel and it’s been dizzying to decide between a scooter or a folding ebike.
If you're from the states here is what seems to be the most up-to-date info about legality: unagiscooters.com/articles/the-2021-comprehensive-guide-to-electric-scooter-laws.
To be honest, I have not heard of anyone in the US having any issues with law enforcement with regard to personal electric scooter use. I personally have flown by cops on my scooter doing 30-40 mph and the officers have never said anything or attempted to stop me despite Utah being one of the states that supposedly has an "under 15 mph" law.
My vsett 10+ will be here in 2 days, too bad it's 11°f and snowy. But I have a huge basement to poke around in
Ordered from Alien Rides 👽
I’ve been seeing a lot of buzz on an Amazon scooter called the “Evercross 800 watt” scooter. Has anyone else seen the scooter? Anyone know if it’s worth the money? Or a better option?
I'm not super familiar with it but it seems like a decent choice for the money
This is literally what I was doing right when this video was posted. I ordered the Nanrobot D6+ and I’ve been anxious for it. Thanks for the awesome convenient timing. 👍
2 more weeks to go! :)
Sweet! I have been watching your content for over a month now and have found it super helpful. I ride a Varla Eagle One if you couldn’t tell from my account name.
Waiting four weeks 3 days (who’s counting) for my varla eagle. Got a tracking number yesterday but fed ex only has label created. Driving me crazy.
Haha I feel you man
You are so lucky, I'm on my 6th week and I just got fedex tracking number too
@@jairomejia948 is it a label created notification or did you get a hard number for arrival?
Just a label created notification, because fedex haven't picked up the scooter yet
I feel the pain I really want mind to arrive sooner😭
When I ordered my blade 10 I thought nothing but riding at speed, and now that I have it normal bike riders are forced to ride behind me. I am a prepper, I buy all needed accessories for my ride beforehand. I am planning on buying telescoping Led flashlights, any thoughts on that? Good informative video 👍👌
I'm not familiar with telescoping flashlights. You are getting them for your scooter?
@@RK9Rides Yes I have 2 of them on my scooter, soon to be 4 total. It throws light I little further than I like but I can concentrate it on the road.
@@DT-Nicky if you plan on using those lights, watch out for the heat. 18650 batteries tends to make the LEDs heat up like crazy. Stay at speed with those.
I’ve been waiting for almost 2 months why are they taking so long ? I’m in usa
Lol soooo I'm waiting for my s4 pro right now, would be nice if I could order a seat for it as well... Eh em "Hiboy"
Bro, question how tight should the stem on a scooter be when turning it left to right?
They said it’s a bit out wiggle room where the wheel could remain straight at high speeds
@@frankwhite8589 thanks!! but wouldn't it damage the bearing if it's to tight because slow speed I'm kina fighting to turn smoothly
currently waiting for my ebike
Waiting for my VSett10+R 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Lol waiting for a gotrax g4
yea i don't have a helmet and my stuff goes like 50+miles
Mine is coming in one week 🥺🥺
Hahahaha this describes me exactly. First electric scooter and I'm going up to 2x600w (peak 2x1000w) scooter.
i’m even more desperate because I’m willing to buy the Kugoo M4 Pro but i’ve already watched every single video about it and I still have to find some money for it😭😭
I finally bought mine lol
I remember the southpark when cartman froze himself while he was waiting for a game system
ill probably get something basic with speeds at 12-15 mph
oh and my budget is like 350 dollars, do anyone have any suggestions:)
GoTrax and Hover-1 have some decent scooters around that price!
@@RK9Rides thanks!
oh and if i like riding scooters ill probably make a channel about it
Turbowheel phaenon
Nice! Seems like a beast of a scooter
Me with 400 dollars of motorcycle gear with no scooter yet because Amazon is always faster than scooter shipping 😑
Road runner scooters .com yall. Bought my nanrobot d6+ came from Los angelos to Baltimore Maryland! In only 6 days! Road runners the best with shipping. The hi boy says it has 2 1200 watt motors but only tops at 30mph. Wich makes no sense 2 me lol. Because my d6+ only has 2 1000 dual motors and clocked in at 41mph. I feel hi boy either lied. Or just has weak motors. That dont hit there peak power. Because 2400 volts should do an easy 40mph. And it's just about the same price as the d6+ lol
What caused your scooter to buck you off the way it did?
Cant even afford one :
Keep saving!
Just got one for 400$ yay
