 Ffirst run today, wow,totally different experience. Lots to learn,ton of fun,easy-to-use, keeping clean probably going to be most difficult part. Got to say well worth the money. Will update in future, upgrades etc. But see no need to change a things Highly recommend!!!
 
Super fun to drive/ ride.
It was a little bit of a learning curve here as well but not too bad. I went to a big flat field the first time out to try and get a handle on it. Currently 100% out of the box stock as well. Not really in a hurry to make any changes but I do see quite the selection of upgrades available.
 
Definitely the challenge, turning....got to go real slow to turn tight on asphalt but feels like with time will be able to turn like real dirt bike , slowturn in then whack throttle to finish turn.It gets hung up in taller grass .Looking foward to some time in straight dirt runs.....weather still issue right now.....
 
Its got my intrest for sure , same here in New England with the weather..everything is definitely wet..
 
Ok, so, curiosity got the best of me and i looked on Amain and of course seems they are on sale. Could anyone tell me what the difference is between the 3 mx's. Is it just color and logos? It appears each one comes with a battery and charger, unless I'm reading it wrong.
 
Well it looks like you are correct. One has the battery charger with it and the cheaper one is naked.
When I got mine it was from my local hobby shop , It was not long after they released them and I couldn't help myself. You know how that goes!
Bought it bike only.
 
From my lack of knowledge.....2 different bikes.....one is dirt bike,the other is dirt bike with street tires.I bought a charger, spectrum smart s1100 g2 and two 50c 5000mah g2 batteries. I didn't want to mix stuff up and run into compatibility issues. Spent about $250.oo on charger and batteries, bike was close to 600. My main concern with batteries was being able to balance and storage charge. Charger works with ic2 and ic5 but only one battery at a time.Got 15-20 minutes run time at 75%power but sure that will drop at 100% power. Maybe 30 minutes charge time. Finally yes can get with cheap wall charger and battery, but probably take full day to charge........
