What should we do with the Spira? Also anyone have a better KZfaq video title? struggling with that on this video

the drift into perfectly framed segue at 4:17 was impressive

Just when you think you've seen everything on KZfaq - Matt Spears says, "Hold my beer" and does something utterly mind blowing. 🤯

Matt you've got Balls Of Steel ... You're a Legend Bro!! 👊

Owned it for less than a day and you are already missing a fender and float tested it. This new ride suits you. I am excited for what the future holds.

Uncle Matt's turkey call is on point. Glubllllugblug awesome

Dude first the Busa, then the goldwing and now Sister Nancy man I love this channel!!

It needs a smile painted on it between those headlights that look like eyes

Been loving the content lately! Keep it up bro

This is prime material for a Matt Spears / Aging Wheels crossover

Super futuristic!! Im stoke where this is gonna go!

I can’t believe it still worked after you flooded it!!!

I can see the hayabusa swap already happening in your brain and i love it

The offroad capabilities is directly correlated to hip thrust strength

We need to watch it cross the country

2 58 something flys behind matt from another dimension

Lift it, put some tread on it (it’s a mini tank) and then paint it gold- as nod to the Goldwing and your ability to transform anything with a motor into gold-you’re an alchemist!!!

The pool noodle steering column is as innovative as it is sick.

This is freaking amazing!

You could put two two stroke racing scooter engines in that with steering brakes for when it wheelies! Off road will trash it quick though.

Just when we think you’re gonna zig, you Zag. Great content!

Nailed the turkey call bud!

Dude, you make me smile the entire videos!!! Congrats from Uruguay

I'm not a motorcycle guy but your energy is awesome dude. Finally KZfaq algorithm works and suggest correctly second time first one is pole barn garage second one is you

That was wild, tiny ev car from snowy off-road to the lake, looks like you guys had a blast!

How fun! You sir are just a bit crazy.

I'm hella surprised you got it up Nettleton Gulch alone

Effin' hilarious! Matt, your unbridled childish joy is infectious and made my day. Thank you! 🤣

What a great proof of concept for a new kind of vehicle. Something like this, priced right, massaged a bit in terms of design (or hell, even as-is), could definitely change the world. If only they were manufactured and sold at scale. What a world we might live in.

Introducing, the hot air mobile balloon car. A true triple threat

Put the Goldwing engine in it

You pull everything through your arse 😂😂😂 Mat Enjoyed

Love it. Cool adventure.

Awesome dude!

Build project idea: a trike with two QS motor hubs at the * front * and fly-by-wire arduino-controlled proportional power to each motor to provide steering input instead of a traditional rack and pinion system.

Needs wings and a small jet engine. A flying, driving, amphibious adventure vehicle. Suits you perfectly sir!

I'm pretty sure the power going to the one wheel is due to a differential or diff for short. The diff gives power based on what can use the most of it, this is useful for having 1 wheel spin faster around a corner to save tire wear. The problem with diffs is that when offroading if 1 side has significantly less grip its going to give all of the motors thrust to that wheel, due to this technologies such as diff-locks and limited slip diffs exist for offroad vehicles. A diff lock locks the diff making both wheels rotate at the same speed no matter what and a limited slip diff limits the ratio of how much 1 wheel can spin faster than the other. In your case 1 side has ice and the other gravel, the icy wheel is going to start slipping an take all of the engines power to only that wheel.

loved seein it drift the mounain roads

The background music makes the video epic!

Damn that looks fun!

Matt is slowly becoming whistlindiesel and I love it

Iv always wanted to see a electric vehicle that's directly powerd by some kind of motorcycle engine hooked up to a generator. No battery. I was going to suggest just plain gas swapping it. But with hub motors it would be quite difficult and would probably compromise the whole floating thing with driveshafts and such. But say a bussa engine driveing a generator that directly powers the hub motors would probably rip and you'll have all the range you desire.

The Cars and Cameras hovercraft crossover episode needs to happen! Think it’ll make it to the Carolinas 😂

Nice to hear sister Nancy

Dude. Best video yet. 😂

definitely need to put some dirt bike tyres on it

Add front wheel drive. Up grade shocks and some dirt tires. It would be cool. 👍 Keep up the good videos.

Awesome dude

Hmmm, atv tire on the front and paddles on the rear? Should work in the dunes and help in the water? Fill the bottom with foam to plug the holes

Love it mate 🤣🤣

Some kind of overlanding involving water crossings would be great

Oh no my boy is working his way up until he gonna strap a million balloons to a house and make it fly

A long range mod test would be dope...see how far it can go, normal driving as is. Then, with as many mods as you can imagine (aux fuel / generator / charger), aero, etc...see how far you can get it to go on one fill up!

That’s crazzzzy!!! 🤣🤙🏼

Whatever item you fall in love with is doomed for immediate destruction

Damn good one , 🤘🏻 🌟 🤘

Kind of mad that you beat it up so bad so fast. That thing is actually super cool 😎

That was fun! Where did your buddy find this thing?

Hey Matt, you should do a 100 miles challenge! Great work on the videos! :D

You absolutely can charge the battery and drive at the same time.

Theres things are about to be selling everywhere. With double the power and some tires that thing would be a death trap of fun

I think a fun idea would be to cross lake tahoe in it after you get a paramotor or something like that, or maybe find some strong water jets and make sure it doesn't sink. "We put a paramotor on a floating car and crossed Lake Tahoe" or something. Maybe to prevent it from sinking get an emergency CO2 or Nitrogen that fills some ballasts or something quickly incase it does start to go down or have a chase boat that can attach a rope quickly or something. Or hayabusa swap...

Obscene Distance Challenge - Pull a small trailer with a couple of Generators running and drive out on a quintessential American Road Trip lol que the 70's soundtrack

pretty sure you can rent these on the gold coast queensland australia and in Bali

I'm still surprised by the low subscriber count. You deserver way more

Grind hard plumbing has done some cool stuff with e-vehicles

1 minute in. already a W im in love with it XD

MATT SPEARS...INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN ON THE MICROPHONE

Hell yeah!!

This is some quality content hahahaha

And I got to say your choice in music is fucin RPIC I'm 52 so HUGE Cooper fan good shit kid!

we need a collab between whistlin diesel and matt spears

Need to put some Pirelli Scorpions on that thang.

Someone plays Skate 3 with that music choice.

You need a roof rack that's long enough for you to use as a sleeping platform. Go on a camping adventure!! lol

The motors on that thing are qs 273 based,, good motors, plenty of room to upgrade,,, find the controller see what amps its running

Crazy

Was it advertised as being able to float?

Absolutely love the vibe mate and you his crew give out loving life to the max.Thank you so much Matt you and your boys are living the dream keep it coming One love peace out from Weston super mare south west of the UK

Two snowmobile tracks on the back and a ski on the front, then hit the pow...

Probably can through a generator in there, but you're probably pulling more current from thr battery than the generator is putting in, but all depends how fast you drive it. The motor controller probably has a charger interlock signal, to prevent you driving away with the thing plugged into the wall. Youll have to bypass that signal.

just needs a regular steering wheel and that's the bomb!

Please add suspension offroad tyres and high ground clearance

Fix the electrical, put some off-roading tires on it, and then send it again.

Do a BDR trip! Dirt tires and an onboard generator.

I´d fix the steering first for sure, that should be easily doable, either a dirtbike handlebar in there or just a regular steering wheel. Second i´d look into bigger tires, not much but it needs nobbies for sure. Third i´d try and take off absolutely everything that is styrofoam and build an outer cage around it for obvious reasons if or when you roll down one of those mountains. Fourth, bigger controller, bigger engine, bigger batteries:p

70 mph in a three wheeler!? Fuck that, that's a death trap. No, no, no.

This is an unoriginal and not very creative idea, but it would be awesome to see that thing built up to be a beast like Grind Hard is doing to their ChangLi. Some proper offroad tires on it would be sick, but I guess finding some that fit without having to mod the car would be hard. Making it properly amphibious would be sweet as well.

buys a floating car proceeds to take it off roading then wonders why it sinks

So good ahahahgahaa

9:07 .. me, me!! 😹

Get some bigger wheels and better suspension. If you want more power get higher wattage motors for more power. Also would be cool if you put a ski on the front and paddles on the rear wheels

Yes, you can. And wouldn't be hard to do. That's what they call a hybrid before. High bread's where I thing I seen one that was a small electric car towing a trailer for the generator that's how they got large distance between towns. In the way the steering is set up. That's The very first. golf carts used to be many years ago.

I’m surprised that it doesn’t have regen braking. That would be the best way to charge it while your driving it.

Put some little knobbly tyres on the rear wheels

OVERLANDING BUILD!!

You guys should pun off road tires on it

i bet you could find lighter weight and more energy dense battery cells for it. improving the range alone could do you alot.

Where do i get info or whats the web site

I don’t know why you would make a floating car like this if it’s not mobile in the water as well but I guess with a little creative ingenuity you could make it a a little more mobile in the water🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏼
