Lexmoto Cypher Overview
Join the silent revolution with the Cypher - the first electric motorcycle to be introduced to the Lexmoto range!
For those looking for an environmentally friendly and sustainable means of transport, the Cypher offers an easily accessible and cost-effective way of transforming the way you commute.
Featuring a 1500w electric motor and a range of up to 40 miles**, the Cypher gives a new way to tackle the way you travel. It features a removable lithium-ion battery that enables you to charge the motorcycle while it`s parked up and comes with extended servicing intervals and two years parts and labour warranty and a three-year warranty on the battery.
With a top speed of 30mph, the Cypher is more accessible than most other motorcycles. It can be ridden on an AM category licence, meaning that it`s available to 16-year-olds, and also those who passed their car driving test before 2001.
**This range is depending on speed/weight/braking and other factors

Not really, its selling for 500 used and even then hardly any buyers as range drops down to 12 miles after a year and parts on this tend to degrade quick and are expensive to replace. Frame has rusting issues too!

You can derestrict this bike easily and it will do about 40mph then. Obviously that would then make it illegal for you to ride as it would change the category into a 125 equivalent.

You'll probably have to swap the led headlight bulb back to halogen for the MOT, LED bulbs rarely match the position of the filaments in the halogen the reflector is designed to work with and the beam pattern gets messed up; unless of course you know a friendly MOT inspector ;)

@baconbuttties Ай бұрын

@@paulj5080 I did find this... LED lights are now legal on a motorcycle Headlamps must still comply with all other requirements of the test and headlamp aim. So, as long as the headlight beam pattern doesn't dazzle other drivers, LED light conversions can be legally done and you won't fail the MOT for the conversion.

@paulj5080 Ай бұрын

@@baconbuttties Fair enough, my experience is with cars and trucks where they used to be a grey area until the MOT manual changed retrofitting LEDs and HIDs to halogen lamps illegal in 2021; I didn't realise that they had changed the legislation in the opposite direction for bikes.

They changed it the other year, LED lights are legal now as long as the aim is correct which basically means don't buy cheap ones. On my 50cc moped the stock halogen bulb was terrible I could only go at 15mph on unlit roads so swapped them for a pair of LED bulbs from ledperf. It's about 5x brighter and the original beam is still retained.
