New subscriber here from Springfield Missouri.glad i found you here I got all i need to upgrade my Z1 thank you for the hardwork sir 🙂

thanks so much for doing this! I know it is a pain to take apart all of your work and redoing it for us. can’t wait to see speed limiter mod

Thanks for taking the time to share this! Ordered my Z1 yesterday and it’s scheduled to arrive Wednesday. Will definitely look into doing this

Brian, very much appreciate you taking time to film this mod.

IT WORKS FLAWLESS! Bought a battery directly from Brian and everything it came with made it super simple. Plug and play that’s it. Thanks so much bro!

This is so simple. Thank you. I just ordered an RX and I was looking into getting a Z1 for my daughter for her Bday to replace her Razor electric dirt bike. This will allow her to go farther with me.

Hey Brian, well done again incredible video ☝️👌 You are such a natural especially in terms of demonstrating and showing these incredible eBike hacks and modifications 👏...it’s just so inspiring. What a wonderful S1 batt modification using the cupholder brackets and that simple plug and play extra battery setup getting a dual battery system .. with extra range, keep up the great work Brian absolutely brilliant .... hey :) I know the story about your foot and I’ll my gosh !!!! anyone reading this stay tuned it is mind blowing !!!! Awesome stuff ;) cheers Andrew Penman EBoard Reviews⚔️

Super73 needs to have a quick release seat. I'd much rather through an extra battery in a back pack.

Thanks for this! I just got my Z1 this week and I’m not concerned for the battery life yet. When I do, this is what I’ll do!

Great mod Brian!, thx for the tips. Hope you get well soon. Keep riding 😉🤙

Hey Brian! Thanks for making the informative video. It is greatly appreciated. Okay on my way to Amazon to buy the ext battery! Lol

A lot of helpful information, thank you. I would be a bit concerned with water infiltration using this method.

I dont own one yet but I'm preparing! Thank you for video. Very educational.

The Z1 is really the og with a tail

great video man! personally i think there is no worry about being out of battery since unlike a motorbike, the bike has pedals so you can always make it home by just sweating!

nice video . to the point as always!

Added 36v 20ah battery and still kept my mudflap in the front by just using longer screws. It has been magical. I barely use the original battery anymore and can average about 35 miles at consistent speeds of 20-25mph without worrying about “Will this drain my battery too much”....and that’s just with the “backup battery”. (Did a speed hack too, following Brian.) Also, I pulled the original battery Anderson connector through the small opening at the bottom of the controller under the seat, zip-tied them to side of frame and voila...:no hanging wires on side or unsightly wires just dangling, keeping the aesthetics of the Super73. It’s a tight fit and takes time to get right but if you are like me and don’t won’t wires hanging everywhere...well worth the effort and end result👌🏾 Anyone looking to upgrade to dual battery and you have a Z1 - invest the extra money and purchase a 36v 20ah battery (~ $346 USD)....you’ll thank yourself later. Increasing your amp-hours is key to “how long can I ride?”, so if u can afford it go with the max amp-hours which is 20ah. Z1 comes stock with a 36v 11.4ah. The difference is night and day!!! Maxing your amp-hours to 20ah, you will definitely notice increase in takeoff, speed duration, mileage range....and more importantly you will increase peace of mind. Ebike are supposed to be all fun!!! Hope this helps someone who was stuck like me. /Bklyn👑

This is a really good idea. I've been looking into getting a Z1 so I can have a bike for the lady to ride but am hesitant due to the estimated range. Great video per usual my dude. Hope your stayin clear of the Rona!

Hi Brian, great channel! Love your videos. Can you make a video on how to change the tires on this Super73 Z1? Thanks.

Can’t wait to see the next video!

Can you make a video how to install a headlight on the Super73-Z1 Please!!! It would be much appreciated, I just recently bought one.

just add a splitter to make the 2 batteries in parallel, same 36 voltage, so no need to switch plugs. The 2 batteries must be at the same voltage.

Thanks for this Video and Workshop 👍👍

Hi again , Can you send me the link where to buy the same battery to over double ranger with that anderson connection? i checked the link you have here but doesn't work anymore and all i see is a charger.. Thank you!

Hella Clean! I like your style big dog.

Hey Brian, Cool Video !!! I use Anderson Connectors for my solar panels they are pretty much bullet proof.

What about if you connect both batteries in parallel, but leave the battery switch OFF and then when one runs out of juice switch it OFF and the other one ON, could it work?

Remember when we hooked up that 52 v 20 amp/hr battery to my rose ave, it wouldn't work at full charge but once it ran down a bit it makes the bike fast. oh and the display wouldn't work most of the time with the 52 v

Thx great video help me a lot

It is a great idea and tutorial. Thank you so much for the video. I wish there was a like button 👍

Would love to see a pedal assist on a regular z1... people are doing 48v but I would love to see a 36v oem controller pedal assist mod. Thanks!

super job! best for You!

great installation

Hey man, Great Video! Im really curious about the second link in the description for the battery that doubles the range. The link listed takes me to a battery charger listing. Any way you can send a link to that battery ? Thanks man.

Put a wye cable so both batteries are being used at once, it’ll keep the temperatures down and you won’t have to switch later because you are already running them in parallel 👍🏾

Great idea indeed... Super73 should have included a second battery for the price. Like yours, second battery as backup to get home safely with.

new sub thanks for the video man

Thank you, awesome video. What are the amp hours on the battery you sell and how much is it?

What lighting system do you use for the Z1? AFAIK, there isn't a connector for it. . just curious.

id like the over double range battery but it seems that that link you put isn't the battery anymore its a charger now, can you link me to that same battery maybe from a different website?or what spec was it was it 36v 15ah??

You mentioned the extra wire for an aftermarket headlight. Any tips or demos? I’d like to add a light and run it thru the system.

Thanks for Upload.Good Work 👍👍 fantastic 👍👍

Hi! Interested in getting a second battery pack for my son's Z1 - please let me know if can get one by xmas to do this upgrade with him!

Thanks for the great step by step info. You mentioned buying the battery from you? How do I do that?

Niiiiiiiice👍😎 subscribed

This video is super informative. I have bought a 36v 15ah battery and I will be fitting the same sort of setup to my orange73 zg (eu spec version).... I will be posting video on it when i do. Thanks already for your help with this... How is your foot now? ;)

What link in the description is to the battery used in the video

I was thinking of doing something similar but with a 3 position switch so it's all self-contained.

great video.

Gracias x tu vídeo amigo.

AWESOME we are going riding when this covid crap is over

Hi! one question i checked the amazon link to buy a new battery... Can you put a 48v battery to the z1? or only 36v? I'm just wondering if the z1 motor support 48v battery... Thank you!! and great channel.

I can’t understand why 73 didn’t do a swap battery for this bike, the default range is so inpractical, I mean yes sell complete bike is better for the company, instead of selling batts, but overall I think they could get more customers. I was thinking to get this bike, but I came from esk8 scene where we have 45-50km ranges and 20-25km it seems like a joke for actual ebike.

Brian, there are two types of Anderson cables on Amazon. There's a Big Anderson and regular. Which one did you purchase?

Hello. Just have a question about the charging of the battery. In order to charge need that the power button is on. But me my button is broken. So do you know how I can fix that ?

Could you use a splitter cable to have them both connected even if one battery is off?

Can you run these in series so you don’t have to disconnect / connect to switch over to another battery?

Great mod. Video was a bit long for something that simple but thanks for making it.

isn't there a way to connect both the batteries at the same time to the controller? So you don't have to switch between them, and they also both charge at the same time.....

Hi dude great video, would this work with pedal assist super 73 zg?

Is there any way to install a switch? Can someone show a diagram? Thank you!

Love this mod! Looking to buy this bike but the range I wasn’t sold on. I went to the amazon link but it’s no longer available. Could you update the link?! Would love this please!

I want to know how to get light connect using the battery on this Z1 model.

Hello, I got my new super 73 z1 and i love it.. I will try this soon... One quick question... did you leave the same seat or you mod the seat too to make it more confortable? because i noticed the seat is super hard!! my butt hurt after few minutes riding lol.... that's my only complain lol...

Great idea 👍

Hey wondering if an anderson cable splitter would work so if needed while on a trip you didn't have to take seat off and all that.

Repost: Hey brian, do you know of a replacement battery for the S1. Been looking for an extra battery to take on longer rides. Just can't see paying the super73 price at the moment. Not looking to rewire it, just looking to throw an extra battery in a back pack or mount it to the bike. Thx again dude.

can you do a video on how to setup and install the light on the front of the z1

I’m trying to get battery replacement

there is got to be a better way to switch between dual battery system, like a switch that u just flick and the second pack kicks in...

Great video I live in nyc so this 73 is perfect for my transportation. One quick question: Can you change the throttle like motorcycle throttle instead of the stock ?

Your link us misleading. I bought a battery from your link and found there's no charger. The pic shows there's a charger and other peoeple received a charger. The connection head is not even there. its not returnable. you need to remove that link.

Hey Brian I ordered my 36v battery from the link you posted on your video. My problem is Mines didn't come with the anderson connectors at the end to connect them together. Where can I get this at?

How do I order the battery you sell? I’d like to do dual battery’s and help support your channel too. Thanks

Any information on how to dual battery an S2 , would love to double my range on my bike.

Hi soz, is it possible to get a link for battery? Pretty please

make a switch between the two batteries.. much easier and cleaner look

Will this work for the 73 Z Miami also?

What if water hits it

Do you live in Jersey I would love to put another battery on my Z 1 when I get it I just ordered it today

You still charge it in the same port?

Is that typically how you hook up 2 batteries? I was wondering if you nedd a stronger battery for a bigger motor would you do it like this or is there anyway to run the power together

And when it is raining? It's not really a waterproof safe connection🤔

Can you put shocks on the front?

Will the battery you have in the description as “double range” work with the stock controller?

Hi I got my z1 and want to add that extra range can you provide info on how much that costs?

What is your favorite ebike.

Would it work for the s1.

What type of headlight do you use on you Z1.

I got my battery but it didn’t come with the Anderson Connectors. So now I have to buy the tools and the connectors and do all EXTRA work myself 😑

Hi Brian, I’ve recently bought a Z1, called a ZG over here in the UK. Enjoyed your video for extending the range. One question; is there a technical reason why you didn’t connect the two batteries in parallel so you don’t need to unplug one and then plug the other in. If they are the same voltage I can’t see why you wouldn’t do that.

Do you think this would still work fine if I put a 30ah 36volt battery ?? Instead of the 12ah

Does dual battery make it faster?

Anyone know if the whole battery can be removed and relocated? Or just use the strapped one? I live in intense heat. need something quick for the summer.

Nice,how can I order a battery from you and how much

Could this work for the zx?

I’ve been looking at the Z1, but sitting on the battery, quite literally, is giving me pause. If the pack malfunctions, it doesn’t seem like a super safe spot to be, no? Not trying to go from Mike to Michelle.

Can I recharge 2nd battery through the built in charging port if that battery is connected to the control module through the Anderson Plug.

how do you get the anderson connector from the stock controller to be so long mine can't reach the new battery
