"Fatha Capadano" haha gotta love it. Awesome footage Ivan and glad you were able to experience the ride out here with us. We'll definitely have a couple more during the summer!
Hey JB360, thanks for watching this video! Lol you know it had to be said that way because any other way of saying it is wrong! I'm looking forward to it more rides with ya'll. I really enjoyed that we could all have a good time and we were quite respectful of everyone around us despite our speed hooliganry on the blvd! I'll be sure to have the shop swap me out to large offroad tires next time we go, I aint gonna get caught by that Johnny route again hahaha. By the way, we need to figure out who that guy that tipped over in the sand was!
Thanks for watching this ride! This ride was one of the most fun ones last riding season. I'm so sad that I missed their "end of season ride" hosted by JB360. Riding in SI is such a nice change of pace compared to riding in the city all the time
Ivan! That was spectacular! Looks like we all went with you there and you are right, feeling like a tourist here 😅great ride but you dusted your fellow scooter homie in the apollo! Cudos to him! He kept up with you guys all the way until the end. Nice mean machines but Sir, you have balls of steel going that fast there not to mention the off reading part was a gotcha! Great video bro and stay safe. Glad that you enjoyed it too.🎉
Hey Domingo, thanks for watching the video! I'm glad you enjoyed it because I feel like I'm finally starting to get a hang of filming/ editing montages along with how to edit the ride footage so it's a bit more immersive while telling the story. Lol, I felt like such a tourist on that ride. That's why I was so like "ohhhhhhh ahhhhhhh wowwwwww"😅. Kenneth and his Apollo always kill it. He kept up with the crazy group ride we did earlier this year in Manhattan! From what I hear he's upgrading soon so I'm looking forward to seeing what he gets! Hahaha going that kind of speed just takes practice and level of comfort with the scooter. People got to try it during the ride and they were TERRIFIED of the power in ECO mode. Next time I go on a SI group ride, I'm sacrificing my speed so that i can install offroad tires lol. I'm not falling for that again🤣
@eyebahnrides Keep up the good work as the cinematic life suits you. Great ideas always pays off sooner or later. Yeah, I could have imagined seeing the sites too. That speed you are right about getting used to it because when I was on the Mantis, I thought I was the man going 40mph but damn, you almost hit 60mph! On a Nami! Lol 😆 awesome but stay safe bro and don't leave your fellow scooters behind lol 😆. Props to the guy in the apollo as you got my respect for keeping up. Question, was that a phantom he was riding?
@@domingoc9721 From what I remember it was a stock Phantom he was riding. Kenneth (the phantom rider) is actually planning on upgrading soon but he was able to keep up with a quick 1 hour charge halfway through! That whole ride was about 35+miles with some pretty aggressive riding at times and really steep inclines at times! I know!! I wish I had turbo on the whole time because we could've gone over 60 lol. By the time I turned on the turbo, I was already at 60% battery =(. To be fair, 40 on the mantis felt like 60 on the Nami! That smaller frame and tires makes you feel the speed much more. Thanks man, I appreciate the vote of confidence. I'm spending alot of time learning about editing and filming so I'm glad it's paying off lol.
Hey Nerd's World NYC👊🏼! I have to show my face sometime lol. I think the first video I did with the camera pointed at my face was the first group ride video
Thanks for watching the video Erock and we missed you on this one. Would've loved to race the CTY2 and would've loved to see you get more time on the scooter lol. I've seen seats for the Nami, but it looks pretty lame and kills the whole vibe. Yeaaaaa mannn..... those speed runs were no joke. I'm glad my little scooter could keep up with all the beasts that were there. That custom AR and JB360's RR were absolutely bonkers. BTW that guy from the Goons with the 8kw motor was flying with just the stock controller so I can't wait to see how crazy that gets when it gets its custom ones!
Absolutely beautiful ride, bro! Feeling the backpack view. I just get nervous about the branches breaking something. Loved the ride and nice ripper at the end!!! Man.... when you started talking about all of that delightful food..... I got hungry. Gotta eat, I can't wait for the next one, and that distance with the juice runs bro Ride That Tasty Wave
Thanks for watching the video and I'm glad you liked this one! This was alot of fun to record and all the new scenery was a welcome change of pace. Yea, my camera actually kept getting caught on branches in the beginning. That's why @JB360 kept laughing at me lol. After the offroading debacle, I ended up lowering it a little bit. Though I did try to maintain the same angle while i was editing the 360 footage. I'm glad we had the opportunity to let the performance of our machines shine at the end, IMHO i think we were going that fast because we were all starving lol.
Nice vid n place to ride. When would be the next outing would love to go on my first group ride this year and also would to show you my Nami set-up. It can really take you off your feet as if one has a seat, it can be explained better once you see it.
Hey Favour, thanks for watching the video! Since my work schedule has mandatory Saturdays and occasional Sundays off, its hard for me to know when my next group ride is going to be. I announce it on my IG if you want to give me a follow on there. I'd love to see your Nami set up because I'm always interested in seeing other builds! I also stop by the Electric Wednesdays at The House of Machines if I have no work events so you could go there as well. If you go to the Community Tab of my channel, the address and information is in the latest post. I generally follow these accounts to know the PEV Group Ride Schedule for NYC: Richmond_Riders_NYC S3CrewNYC She_Wolves_NYC GothamEbikes Also, follow ErockRodz (for NJ information) Hope to see you soon!
You definitely can! All you need is a selfie stick with the adapter at the end for the Max. If these aluminum ones can hold up the heavy ass insta360 cams it can do the max. Worst case you can always get a carbon fiber stick. Then you jerryrig it on to a back pack lol. What I do is I wedge it in the laptop sleeve and prop it up using the folding top of the bag. If I weren’t so cheap, I’d buy the proper backpack mount from Insta360 😅
Thanks for watching this video as well! It was definitely a great time and I really appreciated all the new scenery. One of these days you gotta come out to one of the group rides or stop by the Wednesday Meet, if you're available!
He Esk8 NYC, thanks for watching it and welcome to the channel! That was the most fun I've had at a group ride, so thank ya'll for showing us around your backyard! I'm looking forward to the next one!
Great group ride! Loved the offroad part (I agree I don't either like offroading on my max) thought is was pretty funny 😂 and that last speed run was insane!😮 next to all those bikes! I have one question, the Max is one of the best scooters on the market and obviously keeps up with those big bikes while also beeing one of the most waterresistant scooter. So when it started to rain, were you worried about the max getting wet? Or just yourself getting wet? Or just worried about riding conditions in the rain? Just wondering because I ride my Max here in the forever changing Icelandic weather system alot of the times in wet conditions and its no problem for the Nami especially since I had the motors completely sealed then everything is well isolated. One of my favourite channels these days, keep it up my friend ❤
Hey Snorri, thanks for watching the video! I think the off road portion wouldve been more manageable with proper off road tires but it was a nightmare with the PMT Stradales lol. Yeaaaaa... those speed runs were insane. Everyone was quite surprised by how quick the Burn E was! I was worried about the riding conditions and my camera equipment getting wet. As you saw, there was quite a number of trees in the area we were riding in when the rain started coming down. We all know that water + leaves is basically like riding on ice and I was afraid of crashing. As for my camera equipment, it's rated for some water exposure. However, I don't have any water resistance because I'm running a microphone mod that leaves my camera exposed. On a side note, there were a few PEV's there that weren't as water resistant as the Nami so we had to pull over and seek shelter for them. It wasn't that big of a deal at the end because we were able to charge and get awesome icecream! Thank you for your kind words and I'm grateful for your support!
thanks for joining us on the ride! It was definitely a lot of fun. I believe your bike could've kept up, we always waited at the checkpoints because we had a few stock Super73s and Ariel Grizzlies in he mix and they go up to 31 mph. We just took advantage of the more open roads in Staten Island to get some speed runs in!
Thanks for watching the video and I'm glad that I'm not the only one lol. Everyone keeps telling me things like "OMG, wait till you try off roading... its crazy fun...". Every time that I've tried it on a PEV, I thought it was a miserable experience lol. MTB is a different story, I had fun on some tracks and downhill trails in the past.
Congrats on your new Super73 Ruben and welcome to the channel! There's a few sources for group rides/ events in NYC. You can go to the community portion of my channel and I post event's that I plan to attend. On instagram you can follow me, Super73NewYork (NYC), RichmondRiders (for Staten Island Rides), SurronAsburyPark (for AP, NJ Rides), NYCZOOZClub (NYC), and ErockRodz (North Jersey/NYC). If you go to the community tab on my channel, the details for the S73 group ride for this Sunday is on there! You should join us if you can!
Thanks for watching the video and welcome back to the comments section lol! We we're blasting it pretty hard when we were on the roads but that one section in particular really allowed all of us to open up the bikes/ scooters! I actually had a photo of the battery left after the 36 miles (I lost 6 miles because I forgot to "unpause" the relive app lol). 71.9 volts or 34% left. I have another 15-25 miles of hard riding left before it goes into the forced eco mode.
@@ssoffshore5111 I know right? It's crazy for a 72v 35ah battery! If I can confirm that we can have scooters in the apartment, I may upgrade them at Powerful Lithium in NJ. I would love to have them build a custom 72v battery for my Nami!
Thats a good range for the Nami. Do you have the first gen then, since its 35 ah? I have the second gen 32ah and I can only get around 64 km range in X mode. Keep in mind my area is pretty hilly and I weigh 94 kg. Those factors weigh in (pun intended hoho) pretty hard 😮
Going to get my Burn-e soon, would love to do one of these, would be cool to be with other riders, especially in NYC. How did your battery hold up? And how sore were your feet?
Thanks for watching @jackrobhp28 and congrats on your new scooter! If you want to attend some of the local rides, heres a list of accounts I recommend following on IG: Super73NewYork NYCZoozClub Revv1Club RichmondRiders- Staten Island/ North Jersey Rides S3CrewNYC SheWolvesNYC EyebhanRides- of course follow me lol ErockRodz - NJRides DE_Drones- Asbury Park, NJ After the whole ride, I still had about 30% battery left. Which means I could've kept going for quite a bit longer, however, I don't think my body would've held up lol. My feet were fine because the deck is wide enough where you can constantly adjust your riding posture mid position. It was mostly my leg/ knees that were giving out lol. People don't realize how involved riding a high powered scooter is. There's constant shifting of weight, squatting for stability/ braking, and bracing for acceleration. It was a hell of a work out and I was beat when I got home lol
@@eyebahnrides so funny that you actually answered this question in person before I saw your reply on here. Thanks for putting me on to those accounts, I'll definitely check them out. Once again, thank you for spending time to answer some of my questions today bro, really can't express how much I appreciated it.
Hey RedMag, thanks for watching this video! hahaha that's true but I wasn't sure how aggressive they were going to be since it was my first ride with the group. A crazy person with a high performance PEV is going to smoke us just because they're way more reckless and will take more chances lol. I ride fast, but I won't do something reckless like weaving in and out of traffic at high speed. You'll never know how these drivers and pedestrians will respond in NYC. Btw, how's your Nami treating you?
@@eyebahnrides you’re correct about the crazy riders. I value my life too much. The Nami exceeded my expectation, doesn’t even feel right when I try riding the dualtron. Thinking to sell it and get the Klima.
@@marcb2raw Agreed, I like being alive and I like being able to eat solid foods. I'm glad to hear that it's exceeded expectations! Maybe hold off for now and enjoy the difference in ride feel. If you're still not feeling the dualtron after a few weeks sell it for the Klima. Anyway's they're so backed up on Klima orders that you have time!
@@eyebahnrides I’m hoping to get it on a holiday sale. If not July 4th then maybe Labor Day. One thing for certain is it’ll be hard for me to go back to square wave controllers. The throttle control with the sinewave on the nami is unmatched.
@@marcb2raw I completely understand. I know that people are obsessed with the instant power delivery of square waves and consider it superior, however, the amount of control that these sinewave controllers give you over the the throttle is the best. If we ever get to meet up at a ride or at the Electric Wednesday Meet, I want you to try the polish trigger throttle I have on mine. It takes some getting used to, but I LOVE how much control it gives me over the scooter and the hand position. I'm sure they'll do a sale, they always do massive ones for the holidays!

I'm in the process of trying to become a proper affiliate with them and all the purchases from the channel help me make a stronger case!
Hi Anthony, thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel. I don't think I'll do a review on it but I'm hoping to do a First Impressions Video on it like I did with the Klima and Burn E2. I'm currently waiting for the Blast and the GTR to arrive at FluidFreeRide in BK so that I can do it. I like the WK series but it just doesn't work for me (size and portability).
Thanks for watching this video as well illicitkool, I appreciate ya. At that exact point in the video, it looks like I slowed down into the low 40's upper 30's because I saw some sketchy things happening in the distance and the bikes zoomed past me. I was riding around 50-57 on that major blvd. Group rides are always fun and these high speed ones can be crazy! I'm just glad that Staten Island has some nice open roads that allowed us to do it safely!
Hello Rhino selim, thanks for watching the video. Generally all the links for my build and set up are in the description of my videos. Heres the info for the mirrors: Kemimoto Oval Side Mirrors: amzn.to/3iwXKTm
I checked your description bro but where did you get the cover for the speedometer screen? Need to get one for mine haha This thing is scary fast lol I was hitting 35 and I was like dang! I need to get some pads! I got the helmet and gloves but definitely need some elbow and knee pads.
The the display protector actually came with this new display that I purchased directly from Michael Sha. If you reach out to him on FB he'll be able to get you the information. Just make sure you join the Nami FB group first. Yup! When you experience how effortlessly the scooter gets up to speed, that's when you realize it's a high performance machine and not a toy! I wear CE2 Kevlar protection and motorcycle gloves when I'm riding this aggressively. The mesh shirt that I'm wearing has the CE2 Pads in the forearm/elbow, shoulder, and back. I'm hoping to apply for a code from them in the future, but I really like their protective shirts since it doesnt make me look like a Power Ranger... The company is called Beyond Riders. If you decide to purchase one from them, just let them know you found out from my channel. Since a few subscribers purchased from them, they might agree to an affiliate code in the future!
@@eyebahnrides I just checked their site, looks like decent stuff. Are those mesh shirts actually fairly cool? Strangely, they don't really specify what the difference is between the level 1 and level 2 protection is. Also, I need to get some riding gloves, any recommendations?
@@ssoffshore5111 the mesh is amazing while you're riding and it breathes really well. It'll still get pretty hot when you're in place or just walking around with it because it's still lined with kevlar and the pads on the back and shoulders hold a bit of heat. Based on my research during my search for armored clothing, this is what i came across for the difference between CE1 and CE2: CE Level 1 joint protectors: The mean value for transmitted force must be below 35 kN CE Level 2 joint protectors: The mean value for transmitted force must be below 20 kN. I will tell you that my CE2 elbow pads definitely did their job during my EUC accident because most of my weight landed on my elbows. My helmet was trashed and so was my shirt, and I walked away with only a metacarpal fracture on my right hand but my elbows and shoulders were 100% ok (just sore). As for gloves, these are random ones I got from Revzilla in brooklyn. Padded on the palm and have light knuckle protection. I also have Revvit summer gauntlets with heavier protection but I dont like how high they come up on my forearm. On the super73 I just used padded bike gloves.
@@eyebahnrides Great info, thanks for the details! 20 kN is about 4500 lbs of force, 35 kN is almost 8000 lbs of force. Either seems like a fairly high level of protection... as long as you're wearing them! Do you always wear this protection when riding to work etc?
@@LivinginPhiladelphiaPA all 👍🏼. They have an option for a backpack mount if you want to go down the official route, however, i just went with zip ties lol
Thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel! I'm a member of the Richmond Rider's group and I found them on IG. I would follow these accounts and you'll know about 90% of the rides that are going down: Richmond_Riders_NYC S3CrewNYC She_Wolves_NYC GothamEbikes and ofcourse follow me as well! Also, follow ErockRodz (for NJ information)
Why didnt you take your dual battery super 73? I find it inconsiderate of the leaders of the group ride...taking off with high speeds and leaving the slower bikes behind. What if someone new doesnt know the way? i mean, if they want to go fast, why have a group ride? Just go ride fast by yourself. I mean, it's called a "group ride" for a reason.
Hey Grouchy Dude, thanks for watching this video and welcome back to the comments section! The organizers were actually quite considerate of the stock bikes/ scooters because we took the shortest and least battery intensive route they had planned. The other option would be brutal on stock bikes/ scooters because of the long steep ascent on some of the roads. I edited out alot of the stops in order to keep the footage more fluid, but we did maintain a great pace for most of the ride and would stop often to allow the stock setups to keep up with the pack. You'll notice the single battery s73 was next to me in quite often. The only time we really opened it up is on that last Blvd we were on and it's a literal straight away. Most of the people have been on these rides before. I was one of the few that's never been on this ride lol. I didn't take the S73 because I drove to Staten Island and the Nami is the only thing that fit in my car. I don't have a bike hitch in the back because my sedan is small and I don't want to add unnecessary weight to parts of the car when it wasn't designed to hold that kind of weight. The last thing I want is my $,$$$ bike falling off the back and causing a massive accident on the highway lol. Also, its about 2 hour ride (20+ miles) to ride form my house to the meet and I didn't want to be spent by the time I got to the ride. I hope this answers the questions and my bad that the editing made it seem like we weren't inclusive on this ride.
