I just got me one of these. Costs less than 3000 bucks and has performance equal to or better than the comparable Surrons for less money. I had no real knowledge of these things until about 6 months ago, I had never seen one or payed any attention to them. An ad I saw kind of caught my eye and I started checking them out and doing a little research. I have an RM 250 but there is no way I can ride it anywhere around my home without snobby neighbors either complaining or calling the cops on me due to the noise. With my emoto bike I can ride all I want on the farm lands around my house undetected. i can ride every day if I want. With my RM I have to load it up and drive for more than an hour to ride it. I used to think these things were a bunch of crap like a lot of you guys on here, but man I love this thing. It's fast and fun to ride and I can ride way more often. I'm probably gonna get another one so family or friends can ride with me too.

I struggle with the sound of E-MX bikes, but the Stark and Alta at least sound refined.  This Surron sounds horrible…. Like a bearing is going to come out of the case every time you twist the grip.  Horrible.

We have three ultra bee's.  They work very well we use them for course marshalling, setting up trail and basically a go get stuff machine around the park and tracks.  Excellent indoors during the winter months going from one spot to another.  Racing them?  Well current rules are messed up but these would be perfect bikes for the womens and girls classes specially if they are beginner types coming into the sport.

equal to a stark or alta, nope but not intended to be. The electric market is exploding and will continue do to ease of use.

take a while before they really shine but when they do the machines and new riders it will bring to all facets of the sport of dirt bikes will be great to see.  will it replace gas bikes not likely, but the key here is choice.  remember we didn't get that choice with 4 strokes lol.

Emoto bikes are ddefinitely a blast. Son still rides the 250, 85, and his 110, but he puts more time on the surron. Heplays in the yard,   hit's his bmx jumps on it, cruises the neighborhood. Theyv are so versatile, it hauls mearrive wheni do photo's. We have one electric park we haven't been to yet, and one that we go to often ( also has 2 skateparks) these types of places are popping up more, and more local to suburban kids.1000013964 010000145041000014329 01000013956.jpg?VersionId=3p1000013570 0.jpg?VersionId=NoS0b.kWfKLL rE10000142421000014058.jpg?VersionId=B9fbSH77rxPa9aWT.upZ
