EUC Custom Power-Pads Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) Can't help so much, but 3 bar is really to high. I have 1.4 - 1.6 bar on my 16X with 78kg and offroad use. If I would ride only on nice flat pavement, than I would increase it to 1.8 - 2 bar. I guess you can use WheelLog for most settings, except calibration and Ambient Light settings.

MBIKER_SURFER Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 On the CST tire is written: Min/max 2,4 to 3,1 bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EUC Custom Power-Pads Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Yes, I know, but who cares? Do you think the Chinese take technical data seriously? They probably saw this on a Continental tire, which is given such information there, and then they put also some information on it. Surely you don't plan on riding several 100 kilometres without a break and at maximum speed, do you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBIKER_SURFER Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) No answers? One more question: How can I get rid of the beeping alarm? I thought turning off in the app is the solution. But it won't do it. It says, turned off (all alarms are light grey) - but it beeps all the way long...... Android app 3.1.0 Edited October 8, 2019 by MBIKER_SURFER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrelwood Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Quote How can I get rid of the beeping alarm? By riding slower. Try setting the alarms in the Gotway app. Choose option ”Disable second alarm”. Edited October 8, 2019 by mrelwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBIKER_SURFER Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) After I found 'the wiping hint' on wheellog, I could get rid of this bloody alarm - disabled second Alarm - wonderful quiet Also set the wheel for 84 V on wheellog - everything looks fine now. The motor noise is o.k. - more or less like V10 F. That is fine. Riding turns - 100% better than on the V10F, because of no front tilt of the wheel. A bit, on changing to soft mode - but far less than on the V10F. Now I will have to try the differnet modes with different tire pressure to see, what's best for me!

neurokinetik Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Yesterday I took what may be my last long ride for the year on the Nikola. The weather has been the usual "fall trifecta of misery" (cold, windy and rainy) for the past couple of weeks so I haven't been riding at all. What I found interesting was that jumping on the Nikola felt great, and natural. The usual "I can't get this thing to lean" response wasn't there, and it's because I didn't just get off the KS-18L a few minutes prior. It's the riding on the KS-18L that messes me up for riding the Nikola, as they could not be more different in the way they ride. If I ride the KS-18L just before getting on the Nikola, it takes me about 3-4 miles to adjust. Going the other way (Nikola to KS-18L) the adjustment period is maybe 100 feet. I do have over 1500 miles on the KS-18L, and a bit over 500 miles on the Nikola, so maybe as the experience evens out, the adjustment period will decrease.

I get the same results with the same wheels as you. When I was reading this, it felt like I wrote it word per word. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MBIKER_SURFER Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) This is the great thing in this forum: you get help from nearly all over the world - fantastic. The Nikola will tilt forward a bit in turns, if you are setting it to soft mode. So actually I'm riding in medium. But due to rain, storm and so on, only few riding possible Edited October 13, 2019 by MBIKER_SURFER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had the led strips go bad on both my V8 and my Nikola. Replaced them both pretty easily with a new strip provided under warranty. I don’t think the led strips used in these wherlscare tge highest quality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBIKER_SURFER Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Nikola 84 V - battery question. Is it normal, that after full load - 84,1 V - 2 hours later it shows up with 83,5 V? Not even powered on. My V10 shows this 84,1 V the next day. Next problem is, that voltage drops quite fast - after 9,85 km it showed 79,8 V - meaning 84 %. Calculating that means a consumption of over 26 Wh/km. Avg. speed was 28 km/h. 15° C and about 4 bft wind. I'm using wheellog as app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrelwood Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 It is normal for the battery voltage to slowly drop a bit after the charge. Just like it slowly bounces back up after a ride. If you leave the charger on for a few hours after the light turns green, the drop should be smaller or even disappear. That will also balance the cell voltages, which you should do every now and then anyway. But really, there is nothing wrong with that behaviour.

MBIKER_SURFER Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 And what are your values in terms of Wh per km? Avg Speed below 28 km/h! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinra Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 @Mono and @Sketch: Thanks for the responses, I'm going to have to go to my dealer then. An expensive purchase, the LED lights are a highlight on the Gotway Nikola (for me), but after a few months one side doesn't work anymore.

Shinra Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Charged my Gotway Nikola yesterday, it charged to 80V, then the light turned green, and it wouldn't charge to more. Does somebody know why? I hate having problems with euc's, especially because I can't fix anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
