Hey just a quick update! 1. Nutt Quad piston brakes have 'cooling' brake pads with built in heat sinks. The metal is crap and the heat sinks don't work that well, but they do allow you to pick brake pad material; semi metallic, metallic, organic, or ceramic which is really cool. 2. The Inmotion RS Jet and Inmotion RS use two different chargers. For those of you with an RS that want a Jet, you'll need to keep both chargers as they are not interchangeable. 3. My Sherman L from Leaperkim finally dumped me after 2000 miles. The wheel is advertised to work without hall sensors if it loses signal while moving, but it doesn't work perfectly every time. My wheel started shaking violently and threw me off. Need a new motor now ... 4. After riding both scooters back to back, I think I prefer the Inmotion Jet over the RS. It's much more playful and snappy, I'd only get the RS if I needed the extra long range. 5. Lots of people buy whole new motors for minor issues, but I had a motor with a few big issues. I took the whole thing apart and soldered a new hall sensor board onto the coils, put the whole thing back together and it worked! Saved me $200. So this is a friendly reminder to stay curious and keep a tinkering mindset! 6. I sold my camper van at long last. 7. My cat Nismo is headbutting me as I type, so I'm pretty sure he says hi.
I've got a few quick videos coming out in the next 7 days so keep your seatbelts fastened and tray tables in the upright and locked position. Oh, and drop a comment if you want to see a headset/ bearing and controller /wiring closeup video for the Kaabo King GT pro, I'm trying to gauge interest on it before I commit to filming it. Ok that's all, you guys rock, ride safe, later!
