Pauly - I’m super excited to learn more about the Storm Bee, but WAY more than that..I was really moved to see/hear a motor head on YTube actually expressing gratitude and thankfulness (3:19) for receiving such blessings and privileges. That’s a refreshing detour from the typical power-greedy entitlement. Thank you!

I enjoyed your insights. I've owned the same bike (except knobby tires) for 15 months and got about 2000km on it. I ride mainly off-road and rarely on-road because I live off-road in the mountains of Mongolia. I'd say the weight is similar to a 300cc dual-sport bike (Honda CRF and Yamaha WR) with the acceleration of a 450cc dual sport. This is on paper. If you compare it to a stripped motocross bike it is heavier by maybe 20-30kg. It doesn't bother me except when climbing sketchy, steep mountain trails on ascents. I come from adventure bikes so it's light compared to them. I love my Storm Bee. However, I'm considering adding an Ultra Bee to my stable of bikes for more technical rides where the lighter weight would help (85kg vs 130kg) on more technical terrain. More of a trials experience than enduro, I suppose. To answer your question about frame size. It's the same for all versions (supermoto, dual-sport and off-road) where just the wheel sizes, tires, and street legal accessories change. Off course, that affects seat height and ground clearance quite a lot. The 2023 version appears to have a higher voltage and amperage battery and controller: 104v/55ah (2023) vs 90v/45Ah (previously). This appears to affect range but not speed, according to Surron's specs.

Thank you for watching, and thanks for your kind words! I do love my Storm Bee as well, but the weight is an issue. It is much heavier than your average 450cc. As you mentioned you don't notice the weight very much while riding, until you get into the tighter, slower and more technical parts of the trail. Thank you for confirming my question regarding the differences in frames between the MX, Enduro and Road models. I figured they would all be the same. I also have the pre-production model which has the smaller battery which sucks, but I plan on wiring and building my own battery for the Storm Bee to unlock more power and range. Upgrading the controller would obviously help as well. We will see come spring and summer how the modifications go. Do keep in touch, I would be curious to get your insights on the Ultra Bee if you do decide to pick one up. I plan on riding my Storm Bee more come spring and summer, and comparing it to Nicot E-Beast, AdmitJet and our own custom e-bike builds.

dang still looking for on road review with all important real world range, love the concept of EV but still not keen on sitting some where for 1-4 hours to charge, with gas fill up being about 5-10 minutes tops. this bike looks awesome and along with the Stark can't wait for the future.

The EV world is growing! This bike has a lot of potential but it is not a race bike. It all depends on what a person is looking to get out of a motorcycle. Charge time on this bike is 3 hours from 0% to 100%.

Here are the questions we all have, and need to know. 1) How much does it cost. 2) How much does it cost to buy a 2nd battery. 3) How long can you ride it on 1 charge in sport mode. 4) How long does it take to charge the battery to full charge. I also think it would be a better idea to have a rear foot brake for your right foot, like all the other dirt bikes do, people are more used to that. And I would make the left side lever on the handlebars for the front brake, then your right hand would only be used for the throttle, and the left hand for using the front brake.

Thanks for your questions! 1) The bike costs $9999 USD shipped to your door. 2) I am working on finding out how much a second battery costs. 3) Length of ride time all depends on power output and terrain you are riding on. I am able to easily get 1 hour of ride time with the bike in sport mode riding trails. I am unsure how many kms/miles I am able to get on a charge, but in the spring I plan to do more real world & street testing on the Storm Bee R. 4) Charge time is 3 hours from 0% to 100%. Overall this bike has a ton of potential, but it all depends on the rider and scenario. If you are looking for a bike to take on a multi day trip into the woods, then its not for you. If you are looking to travel long distances between charging, then probably an EV is not for you. But if you want something that handles, performs and feels like a proper dirtbike and want to ride it in the city, at your local park or trails, then this bike is for you.

Well your contradicting yourself there. You say the bike should have the back brake used by the right foot cause everybodys used to that. But no one is used to having a front brake lever on the left now are they ? Cause thats where the clutch would be on a fuel bike. And if you know how to rike a bike you can twist the throttle and still always have 1 finger on the front brake lever.

Nice turbo button. But what about basics like dc fast charging at a public charging station? This is a road legal dual sport bike, right?

The turbo button is a great feature, adds extra juice to the bike. Good question about DC charging at a public charging station. I will find out more info for you. Charge time from 0%-100% is 4 hours.

@@paulyplewa Thanks! That charge time you mention could very well be around only 1 hour using a proper DC fast charger featuring a CEE-socket (favorably built in). Fast charging the battery of the Storm Bee should be entirely possible without hurting the cells, since the max. current would be (only) around 110 amps (max. ch. power of 11,4 kW) and a continous current of around 70 amps would suffice to charge the pack in less than 1 h (in a usual scenario the charge time should be under 45 minutes). Would make the bike pricier (guess approx. +1k) but on the other hand being able to fast charge at a public charging station would make the bike way more accessible for (a far wider range of) potential buyers ;-)
