Knight Rider Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I'm planning a road trip 38.1 miles and back again which is another 38.1 miles coming back, and I'm doing it on my V11 brand spanking new. Can I get away with doing this or will I run out of power before making journey to destination? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post dycus Posted May 22, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted May 22, 2023 Before doing a trip like this, I would highly recommend getting some experience on your V11, with how you ride it, to see what kind of mileage you get! If you can't answer the question of how far your wheel goes (which can be very individual based on weight and riding style), you can get yourself in trouble (or at least inconvenience yourself). 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerbera Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 If this was a ride through consistently urban areas, where you can't really get into much trouble that a taxi couldn't easily rescue you from, then I would be less cautious, but if your journey is more cross country, or takes you on wild, remote trails that are hard for anyone to access, or that would be a nightmare for you to push an unpowered wheel out of, then I'd want to be very certain I knew what the viable range of my machine was before attempting such things... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Rider Posted May 23, 2023 Author Share Posted May 23, 2023 What's the farthest anyone's ever gone on a V11? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhpr262 Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Make sure you take the strength and the direction of the wind on the day of your trip into account too. I once didnt do that and as a result had to push my wheel two miles and still missed my train and had to wait two hours for the next one, on the bleakest and most desolate train station in Germany. Also my EUC trips always take way, way longer than planned. I am usually pretty good at estimating speed and time but I consistently fail at that with my EUC trips and I have no idea why.

Probably, the inmotion's own test procedure, 120km, at the temperature of 25 Celcius, about 20km/h, the payload of 70kg and flat pavement. Your mileage will vary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
