I like the 25 MPH speed limit sign, right before you punch it!

Thanks for the video(s), man. Very informative. Really looking forward to your suspension video. I just got mine assembled a few hours ago, haven't even unlocked it yet but took it for a test spin. :) I struggled with the front axle for a few mins because depending on your setup it can kind of be a handful for one person if you have to lift the bike at all. I ended up getting my bike stand out instead of using the included cardboard and got it on pretty easily, though. It kinda made me wish I had done an unboxing/assembly video as I think it would be helpful for people who've never messed with having to partially assemble bikes. There are just little tips and tricks you learn along the way like choosing to re-route certain cables, the easiest way to get the wheel on, etc. Funny moment from earlier - in all my excitement I forgot that the display readout is in km/h by default and after I got up to around 44-46 in Sport mode I thought "Man, this isn't any faster than my 2022 Sting!" 😆 Definitely did not feel like an 8KW bike, lol. I had tried the button sequence unlock that worked on my first Sting and it obviously doesn't work on the R (or at least mine), so looks like I will be cutting the wire tomorrow. I just read it's a night and day difference from someone who left a review over at Luna. Can't wait!

I got my bike 3 days after your unboxing so having you actively uploading videos on the sting is fantastic. Every few days I'm learning about something, or you suggest an upgrade relevant to my current setup. Plus you answered 3 of my questions in the comments.

Great video bro, glad you are teaching people like me who dont know how to do everything, I cant afford one right now but i really hope to be able to get one soon

Yo Brotatorchip! Thanks for the Mind Juice! I let it sink in and decided to order that chain before Ill even receive my w4 Talaria. I just ordered one Today! well on 4/20 at 12:04

Subscribed. Great Video man

Great video. I installed a Renthal non o-ring chain right out of the box on mine. Top speed is about 55 MPH. Super fun bike!

Quick answer no. Keep up the upgrade videos. Just got my bike two days ago. Love the content.

That's actually pretty good. At those speeds wind resistance is strong and it takes a bit of power for each mph gained.

I'll replace my chain with a roller chain when it needs one but I'll hold off for now. My bike indicated 56 on flat ground at 68% battery and I'm 215 lbs, I really think I could have gotten 57 indicated because I was running out of room, I'm guessing it'll actually run the stated 52mph as advertised which I'm pleased with. I'll probably go up some teeth on the rear for better low end but I'm VERY impressed with it bone stock! Thanks for a great vid!!

Have you seen the Talaria Boys video on this? They tested it but got a different result, quite an interesting watch! Great video.

Benefits at the top end, but you gotta imagine that there are incriments benifits to overall torque and also battery life from freeing up the drivetrain. Just makes sense to me.

Need to try this out. Talaria boys stated no difference were made with non o ring chain

My MX3 currently has a 40t rear sprocket and a non O-ring chain. Gained 2mph from 47 to 49. Less then I planned on but it's still pretty snappy though. Gearing seems to affect E-motos differently than gas motos in my experience.

By my quick math, comparing the relative drag forces of the two GPS speeds (51 vs 54 mph), swapping the chain allowed 12% more force/power to get to the wheels. I'm curious if this increased efficiency would be reflected in a range test. I would imagine you wouldn't get much increased range at max speed, like what Luna recently did on pavement, but I wonder if this chain swap would increase range by 10% or so on a trail ride where the average speed isn't much different between chains.

I bought this bike for tight canyon trails. Mostly at night due to not passing people off. And I mostly ride in eco. I got 56mph yesterday and I have the oring chain on.

Seems like a worthy upgrade to me. 👍

What size chain would I use for my 40tooth sprocket ? Right now I’m getting 56mph max with a o ring chain for Luna cycles

Since you won’t be using the OEM chain, why not try boiling the chain in a pot so that the oil releases from the chain and then add line to see if it loosens the stock chain links better.

nice!

Started hot waxing my road/MTB bike chains. Any thoughts on whether that'd work on such a non o-ring chain for Sting?

which size chain for stock mx4? thank you for the vids very helpful

Hi man, nice ride) How do you feel yourself on this tires on a hoghway? no desire to change to road tires?

do some more wheelies, i want to know if im gonna be able to wheelie this being stock down the whole street

hey, doesnt the stock sting r go like 45 mph? just wondering what upgrades you made before the chain since the first speed test was like 51 mph

Will this work on any ebike or would there be other limiting factors that would stop you from realizing the top end speed gain?

Hi man I heard you say in the video that if you changed to a different sprocet it would go 60mph what sprocet are you talking about possibly leave a link😊

From the time I’ve spent building bikes, the oring chains effect is negligible once the chain has heated up. Plus the oring chain will last SOOO much long and makes the sprockets last longer.

Still 8mph faster than the first gen. Was this speed run with no regen too? I’m quiet jealous of the quick connectors to disable sensors.

Supermoto setup for the street ?...Sprocket how to video for the R?

Do you think it makes the bike more efficient? Better low end power? Is it louder?

Are you planning on doing a range test⚡

In theory would the new chain improve efficiency/range?

😎💯🔥🙌

Can never go wrong with a gold DID

Hey sunshine why don't you do a 0 to 50 race? How much time it takes not top speed

I just ordered one

I wonder what the range difference would be

Did it help in acceleration tho?

Race bikes not running o ring chains has nothing to do with robbing horsepower. It has everything to do with cost and longevity. Cheap and can it last the race or maybe a couple of races? That's what you get. O-ring chains are like 20 or 30% more expensive.

The bike actually nailed it. GPS is lag

I just ordered the sting. Never rode a dirtbike in my life. Is it going to be to much for a newbie? I'm older then Jesus so responsibility isn't the issue I'm concerned about the torque.

Is the first time u ride stock speed

Is that the talaria r?

So if it’s 40 USD, why does title say 30 USD?

Did it only change top speed or did it add more torque?

should have tested top speed both directions on same street.

And prob gained some battery life with less resistance!

WD-40 is not a good chain lubricant. Gear lube will make a chain last forever.

Put a 14t front sprocket and a 40t rear sprocket you'll gain even more speed

I don't ride electric, hell, I don't ride anything anymore due to a neck injury which causes migraines (helmets weight will exacerbate), but I've ridden my entire life, from 4yrs old with minibikes and my dope ass Yamaha DT50 I bought myself when I was 11, my CR250R I bought when I was 14, my 500cc stroked Banshee, ATC250R, ATX200X, countless other old 2 stroke enduros and street bikes, dirt bikes, CR125M and 250M Elsinore's, Odyssey and a Pilot, Suzuki GSX-R 1000's, Quadzilla LT500R, 1972 Kawasaki H2 IV 750 triple, tons of bikes, quads, trikes, a bunch of CB750's...but after my injury at 38, I had to let go of my three last bikes, my baby, my CBR1100XX Super Blackbird that I spent thousands on rare Japanese performance and upgrade parts on, and my similarly kitted out 75 CB750K5 and my 79 CB750F, both had a ton of work, ond had a full Yoshi(the CBR had a full titanium TSR), the 79 had a Moriwaki exhaust, all three were running Keihin FCR's, they all had big bore kits (1195cc and 836cc's)....oh yeah, rambling lol.... anyway, everyone knows a good, non o-ring chain(I'm an EK guy) and especially, a drop in thickness (530 to 520 pitch ) will give you a good boost, something you definitely won't feel on a larger bike, but you definitely end up putting down more power to the ground.. and of course, you should be buying a chain and sprockets together, it's your cheapest and most efficient way to change the behavior of your bike. I've been looking at these electric bikes, don't think I'll get one, might see if I can get another CB though and just put around and forego that helmet..... I need to ride again 😅 maybe a smaller capacity CB or CL Scrambler, just something small and upright...ehhh
