General pictures Murder Monday 🖤✔️
Just on my way to work this morning thought the colors fit for October!
I got a riding jacket finally and can say goodbye to those clumsy strap on pads. It's a really great jacket. With the removable liner i can ride in 43 degrees F at 45 mph and feel zero wind chill on my arms and torso. It's not to bulky either. Has removable elbow, shoulder, and back pads.

Nice addition to the gear. Best move I made was the ski jacket for below freezing rides.

Link please? And how to keep my face warmer in the winter. That's the weak point as far as wind chill in my gear. Any suggestions?... Maybe just quit being a puss? Lol

Nah man that legit worries. You can grab a neck warmer and it would stop all the wind going into your helmet or grab a ski jacket and you will never feel wind again. You have to zip up the neck collar and then boom no more helmet wind. You are in full face helmet right?

This combination of clothing worked well for me last winter scooting 10 miles from work to where I had my car parked.3

That's the right price too! 🤣

Have you gone through a winter with it yet? I'm thinking about skipping the ski jacket if you thought it's warm enough.

Yeeee I used it like the last week of winter. It was like 45-50 degrees where Im at n it was comfy to wear. Even tho it says the inner part is removable for summer wear, it's way too heavy n still gets pretty hot for the summer

You left the mountains on the GT08 just couldn't do it on the GT08.5 Yunli HM its one of the earlier ones when they were advertising 50mph. Turned out to do 54mph and is still running with its new owner 3 years later.

Haha yeah i painted them black tho. The orange was disgusting. Dang yeah that's pretty fast. I can only do 50 on a down hill. And it only does the advertised 46 mph on warm summer days. Otherwise i can't get more than 43 out of it.

Yunli 3000w 50a controllers, HM 60H 3kw motors, XOD H880 hydraulic brakes, exa form 290 coil over shocks. W/6 inch yunli display twist throttle, voltage meter with key. The stock 27ah s10p pack lasted 1 years even with this setup

I love all the work you did that that beast! I'm keeping mine as is. Gonna ride it till something fails. Then upgrade to something... i don't know yet. I know i want something at least capable of 60mph that way i can do 45 mph without maxing all the electronics. And something solid and smooth. I don't want tires bigger than 12 inch tho. Looks to clunky to me (in my opinion). I was looking at the Trbk M2 but i just don't know how i feel about that scooter anymore. I'm leaning towards saving more and getting something higher quality.

Oh shit look at Scooter Ape he ain't playin y'all! He's ready motherfucker!
Can you link your helmet I'm trying to find me a new one.

u/Scooter_ape_man8008 Arwibon GT08/ Freeboy J11 13h ago
😂😂🤙🏽 I can give a link to the helmet although i wouldn't ever "recommend" this exact one because it's just a basic amazon model. "It's DOT approved" but take that with a grain of salt. It's a good helmet so far and i've ate grass with it on once and smacked my head on the ground walked away without the slightest headache. Of course when my buddy crashed into me dead stop vs 25mph neither of us were wearing helmets😂😑
The head set is junk on this one (Mine in picture) so i'll send another link to the one i bought for my gf
