  • I've always had an interest in two wheels, hence why I got the scooter. Since I gotten rid of it, I acquired my motorcycle "M2" classification on my license and began saving. I am blessed to have this great bike that has more than enough power for any beginner!

    im actually considering buying it, i was searching through yt and found this review and im still inclusive about it.
    But i am willing to give you a sub because i saw your 50cc moped video and i bought it for my son.

    • @EvanStoneProductions

      Those are great scooters! If you take care of them, they'll take care of you. It also teaches a whole world of defensive driving that a car can't, speaking from experience!

    • @Sythorize
      @Sythorize 7 лет назад

      Yeah, this is the scooter I bought for my son, MC-N012 50cc Moped. He handles it very well, the first time I bought it for him, he was skeptical and thought he would look gay. I just told him that it costed a lot of money and his friends would be jealous that he could get places sooner. He now rides that thing down to downtown Ann Arbor almost every day. He even brings his girlfriend to top of the park once and a while. He sure loves it now and I am glad he gave it a chance.

      Me being a sophomore in high school at the time, just turning 16, which in Virginia, you need to only be 16 with a valid Gov. ID and registration to ride a scooter under 50ccs, it was cool to ride by myself while most of my peers had yet to get their driver's permit. Once I got my license, it was rather pointless to have the scooter, and even more so when I got my car, which is why my cousin now owns it. She is younger than me and doesn't have her license yet.

    • @Sythorize
      @Sythorize 7 лет назад

      This is the main reason why I plan to buy my son a cruise bike or a 125cc dirt bike. I'm still considering a sports bike with low cc.

      @EvanStoneProductions  7 лет назад +2

      Thank you! It seems whenever I am interested in purchasing something such as my motorcycle, there are a few short reviews that have little information that I can use, thus inspiring me to make this review. I would love to sometime! I have been thinking about it, I have a GoPro Hero 4 Silver that has only ever been used once in another video, so it collects a lot of dust which is unfortunate considering how much I spent on it! I will need to get a microphone and jerry-rig it into my helmet and that's even if people would watch them, but I really do hope to start one day!

    That bike doesn't sound right when idling. Idk if it's just me but I hear a screeching/whining noise and it idles too high. Mines is an 09 and I idle at 1,000 or 900 rpms. Probably has the choke a little up but that noise needs to get checked out though.

    • @christopherwiebe5084
      @christopherwiebe5084 6 лет назад +2

      Once you start to notice sputtering, switch to reserve and make a note of the Trip Mile Reader. Once you get to the amount of miles or a few before what you wrote down, you should know to get gas.
      According to the calculations, 5.3 Gallon tank, at 53 Miles per Gallon, is 280 miles per tank, assuming you hit reserve at 80 Miles left, you should travel 200 Miles before refilling, ideally.
      That could also depend on your riding habits.
      I get roughly 180 miles before I refill, because i'm a showy asshole
      Hope this helps.

    • @panosvlasiadis4900

    • @aleksandarudovicic4232
      @aleksandarudovicic4232 5 лет назад +7

      Sounds funny, but it could happen.
      When it's really hot, asphalt could soften, enough for a kick stand to sink a bit over time. Depends on the touching surface, weight of the bike and the asphalt itself. I remember roller skating in my friends neighborhood on a bad(soft) asphalt in the summer. I could feel my wheels sinking.
