Big news! The first ever line of RK9 Rides apparel and merch is out! Shirts, Hoodies, Riding Jerseys and More: bit.ly/3GEC4KY

I just saw this video yesterday. I would never have thought to change out the rubber deck to skateboard grip. Did it today and it's given personalization to an otherwise bland scooter. Boy it adds a whole new level of grip. Much more in-tune with the deck, carving is next level and there's now no slip when wet. Love your vids. Cheers RK9!

Just properly inflate your tires before each ride, don’t hit huge bumps/jumps and you’ll never get a flat

*Great **Latest.Bike** Scooter ! I have had it for almost 2 years now and it is still working great so far! Brake and acceleration are really smooth!*

I bought some grip tape and end mounted mirrors for the handlebars on Amazon and then checked YT for more ideas. It seems I'm in the right frame of mind. Never considered solid or honey tires, but now it seems pretty genius.

As a new Eagle One owner this channel has been so useful! Thanks so much for these great videos

Nice short video there and informative! .. you can also go tubeless tyres if you want to stay pneumatic.. just remember the slime and take a pump with you when out riding. Only other upgrade to note that alot of people overlook is the steering damper kit.. that dials in the handling massively giving total control at high speeds with no wheel wobble or train tracking so to speak! with a scooter like the mantis pro capable of 35-40mph.. dampers are pretty much a must :)

I'm adding a comment because I appreciate your videos and I know that helps with your KZfaq channel

Really informative and well put together! Nice job RK9. 😎

This is like the third video on your channel I watched so I subscribed good stuff.

The upgrades that I have done to my scoot, is to change the handle bar to the Vsett 10+ folding handlebar and the grips to the ones found on the Varla Eagle One and the Zero 10x. Since my scoot is mainly black I'm going for a stealth black bomber look. Great video 👌

Thanks for the video grips are not cheap it all depends what would the person like to go with a good set of grips run more than 35 bucks and up. I mountain bike this experience applies to this video.

Rugged folding clamp was really great improvement for my Zero10X. I just use ergonomic bicycle handlebar grips and they feel great. But the steering damper from aliexpress was a disappointment. Now I am waiting for a twist throttle for my Emove Cruiser.

So I'm about to buy an e scooter. For downtown riding o work and simply because I love any form of speed. I think a must have is foldable motorcycle mirrors mounted a little in front of the bar. As well as makimg some sort of turn signal.

If Im going to flash some custom firmware onto my scooter what should I do with the KERS setting to keep it from automatic breaking?

Where did you attach the mirror on the handlebars? I can’t seem to get mine in the right position to see behind my left side. There’s the handbrake and the turbo/eco buttons in the way. Do you put it all the way to left of those, all the way to right of those? On the straight part of the handlebars or the curved part?

Hey i have a go Trax rivel are there any upgrades like suspension, or anything to make it a easier ride probably a stupid question but really want to get shocks and tires

can you make a video showing how to put on the grip tape if it's now precut?

like the hande bar change plus there too short just got me a camo deck grip looks so much better 👍

May I add to use graded bolts and blue lock tight to most of your hardware for strength also re tap all threads

Hi I got a question for you can you add like two sets of wheels in the front or back of a electric hover One Scooter

My blade 10 Pro/Evo is my faster crusier, incidentally my current handlebar has a lot of rise and very little backsweep. It is what I love on the Varla Eagle One (handlebar grips too). I don't really care for folding the aspect, but it's okay I guess. I am happy about the fact that it sports a 31.8m handlebar, so customization is a much welcome addition. Good video, stay safe and ride on bro.

Do you recommend any good handlebars for the hiboy s2? my main problem is that they're too short and stubby which makes it hard to take turns easily

The link you provided for the tires... Do they work for the Eagle One? Also, what spec tire do I need for the Eagle One please?

I have the kukirin g3 pro and i want to change out the handle bars.but i dnt know the size of the handle bars.and also the grips size.i will be happy to to order the site

would spray painting the swing arm suspensions affect the performance at all (the swingarms are off ofc)

What size handle bars do I need to search to fit the eagle one?

Can you tell me what size bars you put on the Titan? As I want more rise and sweep. As I am taller.

So what's the size diameter bars that we need for the varla? Is it 31.8?

You plan on adding adjustable dampening shocks?

At 7:14 the scooter with the yellow grips has turn signals on the tips of the handle bars. I have a scooter like that. How do you install the grips over the turn signals? Is there a video on that?

Do you think the solid tire affects the Varla motors? Or range?

i really want to upgrade my shocks on my hiboy titan but i dont really no how i could do that

scateboard tap where do you get them?

Hi, where did you get the grip tape? Any good shop online? I'm in Europe. Ride Safe

I have a mantis v2 need help finding a handle bar and handle bar extension

Bro awesome contain...big salute..thanks for the links..i have a hiboy titan pro and its hard to find rear light up fender to go with it..and I wanna change my deck like u did on both your scooters..u have any sites for that? i seen your video and it motivated me to custom my scooter I'm tired of this look from the factory..

Could you make a video please on how to put silicone on a scooter pls? Which areas would be best to apply the silicone to... TIA

Could you do a video on upgrading and customizing a BirdFlex scooter?

I got so much out of this video! Thank you so much!

Can you change these sort of parts on the cheaper models like ximeo? Aovo?

What's up? Where can I find the skateboard grip tape for my varla eagle ?

im looking for a website not amazon or aliexpress or any of those for accessories for my scooter,

Has anyone found 8 inch solid tires for Mantis 8? I plan on getting that scooter soon.

Just wanted to throw this info here 😉 22.2mm bars are 7/8". Huge selection of 7/8 bars 😁

thoughts on steering dampers ?

I got a new scooter and am thinking about upgrading batter!? Who can help with the specs

Hi ive only just watched your vid , have considered Renthal bar 22.5 mtx / trials bike , ive been using them for about 20 yrs on mountain bikes , theyre light & wide & come various widths , some the brace bar across + theyre 780mm wide for better handling ? Stu G.

Hello, Do you know what company I can work and order from to Customize Electric Scooter Footboard - Hiboy S2 Pro Electric Scooter, 500W Motor, 10" Solid Tires, 25 Miles Range, 19 Mph Folding Commuter Electric Scooter for Adults with the Removable Seat

For your handlebars, go to a machine shop and have them weld a chunk of 22.2mm stock in the middle of your handlebars of choice, so long as you don’t have to slide the bars into place.

Where is the mattress link

I like Race Face grips and haw one new they are going on my newe scooter

U should do a review on the cyclone 100 kph scooter it's a hyper tho idk if ur into that. Sick vids anyways I've def found comfort getting into the scooter game w ur vids

Do u sell parts for kukirin g3 pro

Very nice video thanks

CAN YOU MAKE A VIDEO ON CHANGING TO GRIPTAPE ON YOUR KUGOO G2 PRO 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Great video. New subscriber and loyal follower. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction as a new rider. Also I really like the black and white grip tape for the Varla. Mine is on the way and would love to go with the same look. Do you mind sharing where you purchased your grip tape? Thx RK9!!

Bitwell grips are the best

This might sound weird but the grips I have gone for is a hand wrap done the in the same way as a samurai swords grip style which is a hand wrap. And it looks great, works great and gives it a personal touch that haven’t seen anywhere else.

All motorcycle handlebars are 22mm, and u have a lots of hight double level 700mm wide if look for stability, i use a Honda XL200 model, it's perfect and gain space to accesories, dont need any adapter to install and forget the handlebars extensión, thats why kaabo mantis use 22mm, more options and most stronger than bike handlebars up 50km/h in casé of crash

Can you review a velocifero scooter

I find it absolutely amazing how you managed to take what amounts to about 2 paragraphs of text and stretch it out to nearly 12 minutes of video with so much goddamn bloat. Feeding the algorithm much?

If I'm using a scooter with good suspension (10x like), will I notice that I'm running solid tires? Tempted to switch to solid on my Apollo Ghost when I run out of tubes so I never get flats again but don't want to make my ride less comfortable

Any ideas how to make a deck wider? I want to ride with my feet side x side and not front 2 back

I want to put paint on mine but i havent the money

Personally all mine needed was custom grips & griptape and fender n reflector delete

hello, i really want to know if i can put a skating grip tape on my hiboy s2 regular. If yes where can i find them or how do i make one?

Have a video on switching to solid tires? Wondering how much you noticed ride quality, traction, range affected by switching?

What about upgrading to a faster scooter?

Nice video, like all of yours are haha, keep it up

How do I get customized grip tape for the Varla Eagle One?

Hey rk9 we need a page to share all our custamizations and exibit all our super scoots ! Just food for though. I heavily modified mine to have a rear luggage rack abd a few other things as well . No its not mounted to the swing arms

lets ride!

Enjoying your vids dude! Whats your opinion on steering dampeners for the Eagle one? I've been thinking about getting one, but the scooter hasn't been shipped yet.

Love it ahaha

You have installed the inner part of the gasket-like parts on the front and back of the front wheel nut incorrectly. Attention to those who will take it as an example.

Looking to get an electric scooter after seeing the fun you are having. What do you suggest for the best one that is less than $2k?

Such a shame i can't replace my grips. They are hammered in and i can't get them out.

Lord I’ve arrived into the scooter world......thanks for the videos.

You can buy a handlebar adaptor for the mantis from E-watts😄

For mantis you can get stem adapter from AliExpress

cool

22.2mm handlebar is actually (at least here in finland) a normal moped handlbar and u can find lots. Just a thought if someone havent found one out. Really nice videos, thank you

Nice video bruh. Can I buy that grip tape for my blade 10 pro? I would pay a small fortune. Lol

This is my first scooter and probably the best toy I've had in my 38 years of life ; ) kzfaq.infoUgkxvyNuxpWiHTNypxG6nyqyf7ywc7Q16PDM The assembly was easy - Took me 10-12 mins to get it set up and enjoy a quick ride before putting it on the charger for the full charge.I love the push-off feature vs. some of the other scooters that start with direct acceleration. I believe this allows a bit more of a stable start with a jerk reaction. I also like the throttle/acceleration feature that its a slow increase in speed vs. what you would get in a motorcycle. I've taken advantage of the anti-theft system when taking the scooter out to the beach and city. I like the anti-theft system as well as the need to enter a code after you turn it on before you can operate. The powerful front lights are helpful for a night ride. You can see in the picture how powerful the light is as a reflection on the garage. I'm impressed with the lightweight and how easy it was for me to get it set up and going. I would highly recommend this for someone looking for a scooter.

You know, I wonder why they call these things scooters? Because when i think of scooters, i think of rides like a Kymco Agility, Piaggio Zip, Gilera Runner etc

Im pretty sure you could of saved 80 bucks just rotating the handle bar...

Where did you get the chessboard grip tape from?

If you buy new handlebar you cant turn over those handrebars

Looks like more expensive than my car..lol

Hello, catching up and learning. As a retarded... I mean retired engineer, everything should be checked for tightness and adjusted to specification. However, if you do nothing... please balance tires. This improves riding and/or learning, improves safety and decreases cumulative mechanical wear/stress. Off to linearize my throttle... HF

Skate grip tape????for me u transfered in god mode I will do it.

I came here to put a rocket booster on my scooter

Don’t need to upgrade my scooter in any way it’s fine the way it is,guess what everyone is different height Deity must be paying you

0:25 I would rather donate to a scam charity

I have an aovoPRO ES 80 scooter. I've added a nylon 6-pack cooler to the handlebars. I've also put my name on the front bar with mailbox letters. I'm planning on putting pinstripes on it from an automotive store. 🛴

Bro could have just said grips handlebars and grip tape
