So my perrents went with a razor mx350 for my little sisters birthday.. the thing isn't that bad but does any one know anything about modding them??? i want to through a bigger motor and better batterys but all i have experience in is gas engines... plz help
 
For more Go try a lithium battery.. but be expected to pay serious dollars... im not to sure what motors they run but you could look at the ESC as this may be limiting the performance.. or possibly going for a better motor..depending.

i want to through.....
Keep in mind this ISNT YOUR BIKE.. Its your SISTERS.. Let HER decide if she wants it 'butchered'/modified before doing ANYTHING!

Foolsp33d inlighten me, are theses legal for street use?
 
Hmm.. not sure would depend on the output of the motor.. im lead to believe if its under 200watt.. then it dosnt require a license to operate but normal bicycle laws apply.. ie helmet, not on footpaths etc..
the shop I used to work for sold electric scooters.. they were imported by a company called Progear, had a brushless motor in the rear wheel(18") a top speed of about 45kmh, headlights, indicators, stoplights, horn, not bad if you were 60+ and lived in a nice flat area... will edit in a pic if i can find one..

ok quick info

Have an ungoverned power output of 200 watts or less, and
A maximum speed of no more than 10km/h.
The requirements for helmet use, brakes, a bell or horn and front and rear lights when ridden still apply.

The one pictured(in this post) is apperently NOT LEGAL FOR STREET USE(as it goes over the Max speed)
So I guess Not!
Note: Illegal use of motorised scooters and miniature motorbikes can attract penalties up to $818.
