    I've done about 32 or 33 miles on this charge.

    It's definitely exhilarating and very fast. At least for what I'm used to. you know, ebikes. A 50 milei ebike is fun, but this is a whole another level considering how how fast it accelerates.

    I would recommend to start with one get used to the torque and speed B learn how to balance your body take day or two move up to two then three and then four because this thing has crazy torque which essentially mean you can easily get hurt if not less then you can get it balance and you can topple the scooter

In Motion Rs Lite Issue

  • Speed, Power & Hills-1 pts

    I have to double tap on the thumb throttle to gain speed (increases by 5mph every tap) it’s not a linear power.

  • Maintenance, Support & Value-1 pts

    So I have a Inmotion rs lite and ever since I bought it I have to double tap on the thumb throttle to gain speed (increases by 5mph every tap) it’s not a linear power. Not torquey at all. I’ve contacted Inmotion and sent all the screenshots and videos of the issue. They said to buy another throttle which I did, but same issue. They said they are looking into it and will get back to me. I was hoping someone had any knowledge of this happening.

Inmotion Rs Lite Midnight Is Such A Good Scooter

  • Battery & Range+1 pts

    I also tend to take it out daily for trips that are at least 50km, sometimes more like 80km if I'm putting around on paths/trails.

  • Speed, Power & Hills-1 pts

    using 3'rd or 4'th just makes the throttle touchier and harder to maintain ~60 kph

    after nearly putting 3,000 mi on it, uh, after a few months of owning it, things went south so fast. It completely broke on me. Went kaput. Error codes galore.

    I had to literally fight tooth and nail, pull so many empathy cards and and just go ham on this company just to get a replacement. Even though I was still well within warranty.
