It really is beautiful and atrocious at the same time. This year I learned that its easier to be on the road with traffic than it is to be on foot with the tourist pedestrians. WILD!

[@eyebahnrides]

yeaaaa mannnn.... it's absolutely wild out there. You're right, I'd rather be on the road with the ability to duck and weave through traffic vs in that mess of pedestrians lol. It's crazy when I get into work and its batsht crazy when I get out!

[@JohnnyPrimeCC]

@eyebahnrides this time of year I try to start work early so I can dio out before dark haha

[@jorgeluisvazquez1975]

3 weeks ago I left my house at 2:30 pm in the Bronx at 23 st and 6 av in Mathattan the quietest until I pass through time square the traffic is crazy there is no respect for those who travel. It's been a long time since I went down to the city to return. They get up at 8:00 pm, it's the same as rush hour, but I took it as a long scooter ride, one hour and 20 minutes back to my home.

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for coming along for this ride Jorge. That's crazy that you passed through those parts of the city during those times lol. It's freaking crazy and you're absolutely right. There's a complete disregard for the safety of others by all the drivers, delivery folks, and the pedicabs. Time Square, Fifth Avenue, and 34th Street is sheer chaos during this time of year lol

[@MisfitOutfit]

Sounds like you outgrew new York. We all do at some point. I'm in south Florida and haven't been to the beach in a few years.

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for joining us for this ride and welcome to the channel! I hate to admit it but I think you're right. There comes a point that the cost of living just doesn't match what we're getting out of the city. A little bit of nature and quiet would really do us some good but I've said that a few times in the past and always end up returning to NYC lol. I'm so jealous of your access to the beach! That would be a dream to be able to ride a PEV there and relax while taking in the sights. Maybe Florida will be in the cards for us one day but I hear from my friends down there that it's insanely expensive now.

[@Steven-qm1xo]

Crazy amount of people. 🎅

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for watching Steven, I appreciate it! This is the most people I've seen in NYC since prepandemic. The crazy thing is, its only gonna get worse until January lol. Every week we get closer to xmas and New Year, more and more people will be here!

[@Steven-qm1xo]

[@unloveableandre]

Night rides are the best. Great video as always

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for coming along for this ride Andrew! Night rides are awesome and I can make more of them now that I'm slowly dialing in the settings on the camera. Hopefully, I can upgrade my camera in the future when one of the companies releases a action cam with a 1+ inch sensor and a wide FOV for my type of content!

[@Scream4Cheese]

This is the best night ride video. All the other videos from other KZbin channels are all dark.

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for joining me on this ride! I'm glad you enjoyed the night footage and thank you for the positive feedback! It took a long time to dial in the night settings because I don't have a film background. So tuning the manual settings to be able to keep up with the range of lighting in NYC was pretty tough lol. I actually cant ride with these settings through Time Square at night because it gets completely blown out as if I were riding in daylight with night settings!

[@george26664]

Thank you I'm going for it

[@eyebahnrides]

you're very welcome! Glad I could help. Just remember to always gear up when riding these things. At the end of the day, a crash at any speed with out any protection can be life changing. Make sure you get a full faced helmet. Body armor is highly recommended but not necessary. Once you have that, enjoy the heck out of it! It's an incredibly freeing experience to be able to zip around at those speeds on a high spec scooter!

[@Sean74218]

Thanks, this is the perfect time! I am thinking of getting a Klima sometime around Christmas!

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for joining us on this ride and welcome to the channel Sean! I'm not biased at all but great choice on the Klima lol. Are you thinking of getting the base or the max version?

[@Sean74218]

@@eyebahnrides I was mostly looking at the 28ah version because of the price. What are the differences between the 25ah and the 30ah? If it's worth it, I'll choose the 30ah.

[@eyebahnrides]

@@Sean74218 it depends on use case. The 25ah is made of generic battery cells while the 30ah is made of LG21700 M50 cells. As far as capacity, its not much of a difference but the quality of the LG cells are a big difference. I like having the higher top speed and being able to maintain it for a few miles longer because of the higher quality cells. It's a bonus that I get a few more miles of range out of the 30ah pack. In my opinion, it's always worth going with quality cells and the larger capacity when given that option. I get that it's nice to have the lower price point but I would prefer they didn't give us the option and just give all the customers the higher quality cells. From there just charge a price in the middle of the two options since you can forward the savings of not paying to manufacture the generic pack. I hope this helps!

[@Trott_Rider_Quebec]

Nice ride again. Winter here in Quebec city, its over for many rider the season is end. I store mine, but I continue to upgrade for more lighter parts by swap many to carbon fiber, alluminium air suspension etc...

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for joining me for the ride! Oh no, I hope y'all can still ride as long as the roads are clear of snow/ ice. I ride all year round but Im sure it's not as cold here as it is up there. I think the coldest temperature I rode in last winter was 9 degrees F (-12 degrees C) during some "polar vortex". For the most part our temperature in NYC stays around 15-30 degrees F in the winters and we've had little to now snow the last 4 years. Thats a good idea if you're storing for the winter! You can knock out all your upgrades with out having to worry about how long its going to take since riding season is months away.

[@ItsTonyAldo]

Born and raised in Astoria Queens, moved 50 miles away from the city and I've never regretted it. I park in front of my house, the Metro North is 10 minutes away, super markets are within walking distance, and riding my Nami is a blast with the open roads. Any time I go into the city now, I question how I made it there for 30+ years. The congestion and traffic just gets worse and worse. NYC has this fuck all attitude and I just got tired of it. Idk food for thought. But man, that Klima is a great looking scooter. I went to Fluid in BK the other day and checked it out, it's a sick looking scooter. People say it's smaller. Lol, it's definitely less wide but it is NOT smaller. But shout out to you for going through 5th ave! and another great vid! love it.

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for coming along on this ride Tony, glad you enjoyed it! I grew up in Astoria near PS166 too and spent most of my life in and out of Queens. Every time I see videos of places out of NYC and read things like this, it makes me want to move. I always cracked jokes about Staten Island growing up, but now I'm like - that place is real nice especially by the ferry and down by Father Cap. It's close enough to the city so I can still get to work but far enough away where we can finally have the space we we want! I know what you mean about being sick of the IDGAF attitude that's now taken over the city. I know everyone has always called NYC cold and calloused but NYers were always pretty caring. I agree with you. The scooter isn't actually that much smaller but its a noticeable difference the way people view it in my building. The Klima's form factor and design allows it to blend in much more than the Burn e did lol. I do notice the difference in weight and size ducking and weaving through the city.

[@ItsTonyAldo]

@@eyebahnrides No way! That’s awesome. My sister still works around that school. That area was the hang out spot, especially Mad Donkey on 36th lol.. fun spot. But yea I agree people are caring. It’s the cars and drivers that aren’t. If you do happen to move, I hope you get to enjoy it to the fullest! Have you missed your Burn E? Ever thought about switching back? As far as the weight is it a big difference when riding?

[@eyebahnrides]

@@ItsTonyAldo lol yea man, that area was the place growing up. Everything from movies to bars to loungers we had it all lol! I miss the Burn E out mostly out of nostalgia. I had it for quite a while. I also miss how soft the suspension was but I don't miss the performance at all. The pros of not having to deal with the stupidity of people in my building far outweigh the nostalgia and missing the suspension!

[@FargoTownie]

I like the long commute videos the best

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for joining me for the ride and thank you for the input! In the New Year, I may test out having the long videos twice a month. I really enjoy this style of content because I like that I can enjoy the ride and have a "real talk" with yall instead of sticking to a script I planned ahead of time.

[@koolsometimes]

Great video. You can always tell who takes the time in post production. Some folks in this community are lazy with their vids but you sir are never that. Well done. I like good production. You should move here. It's a great place for families. DC is 30 mins away Baltimore is 45 mins away. Great places to ride and a community that looks out for you. If your into sales man DC is your remote way.

[@unloveableandre]

And scooters everywhere

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for watching the video and thank you for the kind words. I try to keep my edits simple to give a more seamless experience but most people don't notice that it takes much more work to do that then just overly manipulating the footage. Even color matching the two cameras takes a while for an amateur! Since this type of content is also "one take", you can't really make mistakes with your delivery when recording lol. hahaha Since I've lived in Silver Spring, Crystal City, and Woodbridge before, I told my wife I'd be open to moving back down there. The company I work for now, asked me before if I'd be interested in helping them with a DC office in the future and I said yes. So my wife and I agreed that we'll seriously revisit the discussion if the opportunity actually comes up. Everything changes if I can pursue KZbin full time in the future. At that point, where ever I go is where the content will be! East Coast probably still makes the most sense since I can still make it to the NYC events which is still a HUB for PEVs You're right Andrew. Scooters and PEVs were everywhere when we visited DC last year.

[@Bob_Sacamano]

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for coming along on the ride Bob! It's beautiful and crazy all at the same time lol. This city will definitely test your patience lol

[@TheCrucibleOfNYC]

Yo what's up Ivan! Wow, speechless, great footage and lovin the Klima now. Glad that you are able to get the feel of the scooter and enjoying it. Sorry for the late response, been caught up and hoping that you enjoy your holidays man! Stay safe 🙏🏽

[@eyebahnrides]

Welcome back to the comments section Domingo! It's all good homie, it's all good. I know life is crazy for all of us so keeping up with youtube is almost a luxury! Now that you're a creator as well, it becomes much more challenging to consume content since you're making your own👊🏼

Wishing you nothing but the best man and hope to maybe get together one of these and have some of that yummy Phillipino food you and Johnny Prime had! Take care man and stay safe!

[@taisan7928]

Awesome content. Cant wait to get back to NYC for a night ride

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for watching bossing! Night rides in NYC are always incredible. I think a after midnight ride would be fun as heck since the city tends to clear out by then

[@Vmaxfodder]

Looks wonderful, but cold enough to freeze the motazza balls off the tree 😂

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for watching! hahaha it's cold (35 degrees) but not matzo ball freezing yet. I think January or February, will start to get brutally cold. They're "forecasting" that its going to be one of the coldest winters we've had in a while because we're "overdue"

[@NicStride]

Wow, NYC at night! Haven't been jealous whilst watching one of your vids before, but this looked cool! Until 3:48... :P I hate being wedged between cars and big vechicles like buses and a hard place, because the drivers really generally aren't looking for what's besides them. NYC December seems like a total disaster! (Well, atleast to live there, I'm sure it's fun as a tourist) I haven't ridden to La Rochelle since the summer and am starting to miss city riding... Glad it's not anywhere near as pop dense as NYC!

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for coming along on this ride Nic! Holidays in NYC is beautiful and intense at the same time! The crazy thing is, it's only going to get worse as we get closer to the New Year. After that, we're back to normal levels of tomfoolery lol. It's definitely an experience for tourists. A client of mine told me that she was having such an amazing time in the city but the "romantic image" she had of the holidays here was shattered by the sheer volume of people at all the tourist places (ice skating at rockefeller under the tree, strolling through central park, shopping on fifth etc lol). It was a bad decision on my part to try and get around the bus like that, but I was just kind of following the guy in front of me 😅. He definitely saw me because we made eye contact in his side mirror. That's kind of why I got a bit mad at that point because he sped up the moment we made eye contact. Wait, you're in France?

[@Tenki65]

Just did my first ride with my new Klima Max an hour ago... I was so impatient I left with 30% battery and barely had time to enjoy it! The thing is an absolute beast - and honestly I keep hearing it's smaller than the Burn-E but it's still huge! What I wouldn't give to blast around NYC like you do... Brussels sure doesn't have the same charm (and disregard for scooters)!

[@eyebahnrides]

congrats on the first ride! Wait till you get it to 100% battery, you're really going to get a feel for how powerful it is for a smaller scooter. hahaha I totally understand what you mean by the size. I was so spoiled by the Burn E that this looks tiny next to it in comparison, but that's probably why the crazy people were so afraid of the Burn E compared to the Klima. If you think it's huge, imagine a non PEV person seeing the Burn E for the first time lol. I'm sure Brussels has its own charm when riding through it! I remember when my wife and I were in Sicily earlier this year, I just kept imagining how epic it would be to ride a highpowered scooter or ebike through those tight streets while seeing all the beautiful architecture. I just googled Brussels and it totally gave me that vibe and your city is stunning! Are they heavily regulated there like the rest of the EU/ UK?

[@Tenki65]

No cruise control, top speed hard locked to 25km/h... I finally managed to keep my hands off it long enough for it to charge to 100% and I can honestly say coming from a Max G2 this thing is intimidating! X full send (without turbo mind you) is out of this world! I don't feel self conscious about the full face motorcycle helmet anymore - this is is a real vehicle in every sense of the word. I did find some oddities like the battery % dropping a lot at once to come back up quickly afterwards when doing a heavy pull.Battery sag perhaps ? Managed to do 45km with 41% battery remaining at the end so I guess the battery is fine. You're right, Brussels does have its charms!

[@basket4u92]

Nice video man! You won me as a subscriber. Anyways, I can see you are wearing heating gloves. Can you recommend a brand or just tell where did you get it from? I guess in your area they pretty needed in the mornings. In my area even with ski gloves on 0 degrees and 50km/h my fingers are dying...

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for coming along for the ride and welcome to the channel! It was 35 degrees F (1.5 degrees C) in this video and you definitely need the heated gloves when riding. For a long time, I tried to just wear ski gloves/ insulated mits but they don't work when you're moving this fast. These gloves are a brand called Wasoto and I purchased them on Amazon. I've had them for one year that they're great so far. The battery doesn't last as long as last year but they're enough for commuting. The coldest temperature I've ridden with these on is 9 degrees F (-12 degrees C). My hand was still pretty comfortable despite the cold but after 30 minutes of riding my hands started to get cold.

[@naeemahmed6494]

Hey Eyebahn, epic video, what rear view mirrors do you have on your klima?

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for coming along for the ride Naeem, glad you enjoyed this video as well. These mirrors are from Amazon and I have a link for the in the description. I used to use the Kemimoto Mirrors but I saw this on a buddy's Surron at the last meetup and I liked how sleek it was. The quality isnt as good but they do the job!

[@DaiverZambrano-ed6vy]

Hey Eyebahn! If you don’t mind. Can you show what camera and mount you are using for selfie footage? I would highly appreciate my friend! Like your videos!

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for joining us on this ride and welcome to the channel Davier. Glad you've been enjoying your time on the channel! The mounts that I'm using for the cameras were part of the Motorcycle Bundle on the Insta360 website. I generally only use OEM accessories because the random Amazon ones don't last very long and don't work as well!

[@Dissentient]

I was thinking that NYC would be covered in snow by now. It's such a lovely looking city at night. Where would you like to move to if you do end up leaving the city?

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for coming along for this ride! I'm sure the snow is coming because they're predicting that it's going to be the coldest and snowiest winters we've had in a decade because we're long overdue for a blizzard! Honestly, I'm not even sure. My wife and I have the conversation when it comes up but it doesn't lead to anything since its all "theoretical". Our careers, home, family, friends, and everything we know is here in NYC. My job has asked me if I'd be interested in helping them expand into DC in the future, so that might be something that we explore once it actually comes up. However, everything changes if I'm blessed enough to become a full-time content creator here on KZbin. At that point, I can make videos from anywhere and the businesses that I'm involved in will likely determine where we end up then! I know there will be more pressure to create multiple videos per week and I'll likely be taking on more companies as partners and for reviews, but I'm ready for the challenge (I'm currently turning away alot of companies that ask for reviews/ partnerships because I don't want to put my name behind a product that's just a rebranded clone with poor quality battery cells. I've also had to turn away certain companies that have really high demands for content even though the opportunity is great because I work 50-60 hours a week outside of KZbin). I might even be open to leaving the US in the future but we'll see where all this takes us lol

[@reubenbridges]

Excellent video, twice a is cool.

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for joining me on this ride Reuben and thanks for the input! I may try out the multiple releases per month of the longer format in the new year!

[@reubenbridges]

You’re welcome, I mean watch your videos to help me navigate traffic better. I’m new to riding electric scooters, but when you buy a machine that can do 25+ an hour, it’s best to learn from others who ride daily. When first got my e-bike in August of this year, I wanted learn how travel in NYC traffic and your videos were the first videos that came up.

[@eyebahnrides]

@@reubenbridges thanks man I appreciate that and I’m glad the videos could help! Navigating NYC is a beast of a task in itself 😅

thanks for sharing man. does the wife not ride e-scooters/bikes? maybe a date night escooter/bike style? idk, just spit-ballin' here.....my wife will ride my escooter, but only on the 1st setting...still tryin' to get her a lower wattage one to put around on.

[@eyebahnrides]

You're welcome! I wish that my wife was a bit more willing to join me in this hobby. I think it would be epic to for her to join me on a more relaxing cruise around some trails outside NYC or even around our neighborhood. I can't think of anything more enjoyable than having the wind in my hair, spending time with her, and being able to talk over a voice comm in our helmet! My wife is a really active person but in CLASSIC NYC fashion, she's100% reliant on public transportation and taxis. She doesn't really ride a bike or scooter or drive anything with wheels. I'm the sole driver in this relationship lol. That's pretty awesome, that your wife will do that! I'm so jealous of watching videos of my buddy @johnnyprime riding 2-up with his wife on his Zooz. Maybe if you get her something like the Fluid Vista or a Inokim ultra light, she might be mroe into it

[@limparattila2142]

Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel Anders! I have the Carbon Revo kiddy bar on the stem and the Gemini Titan 4000 oled on it. I lost the wireless remote for it so I have to manually operate it now lol It’s expensive but a great headlight because it’s really bright and projects quite far. Perfect for high speed riding

[@carmelorosario7914]

i got the burn e 2 max for about 2 months now, i love it but it is a hassle to get in and out of apartment building and feels like im driving a truck sometimes with the heaviness. i was thinking of getting the klima since its smaller. i wanted to ask if you think its worth the switch, i also ride in nyc

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for joining us for this ride and welcome to the channel Carmelo. I totally understand about moving the Burn E around. If you got a chance, check out my 100 Mile Ownership Review here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3zbdXlrfsSlnrM That should answer alot of the questions since I was a Burn E owner that downsized to the Klima. If you have additional questions after that, feel free to ask!

I love EUCs and thoroughly enjoyed my time on it. After my accident where I had metacarpal fractures, I couldn't get comfortable on it again. My riding became too conservative to be safe because I was a bit more apprehensive after the crash. So I sold my EUC and got the S73 after

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for watching the video and welcome to the channel George! The Nami Klima/ Klima Max is an incredible scooter and is perfect for a newer rider. The settings (D and S modes) are very controllable while the higher modes (C and X modes) provide enough power to make the scooter enjoyable to use for a long time. I hope this helps!

[@canguvenc6099]

I'm watching your videos regularly. currently my budget is $1500 and looking for a new beast. my options narrowed down to vsett10+ and kaboo mantis v2. I'm open for any other options too, any opinions for me?

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for watching the videos and welcome to the comments section Can! I love the Mantis but I hear the v2 had a few issues with reliability (just keep in mind that I didn't confirm if this is true but its just stuff I see and hear in the shop/ community). I've never really heard anything bad about the vsett10+, in fact, I've only heard great things from its owners. The only other thing I could think of with in that price point is a used Nami or used Wolf Warrior X. As you know, I love the scooters that Nami creates because its water resistant, comfortable, and have great power. If you don't need the water resistance then you can't really go wrong with any of those options. Also, the emove roadrunner was quite fun when I tried it. I think those range between 1500- 2000. Sorry, I couldn't provide more insight. I hope this helps!

[@evangelosemanueltsarnas6465]

Hey so I am getting bored of my Klima, nothing gets the aderlaine junkie out of me until I have the Kabbo King gt pro. I want to upgrade to that scooter and sell the Klima do you think driving in and out of Manhattan traffic on streets on GT Pro is much more dangerous than the Klima because of the turning and weight or would you say if your already going in nyc streets with your Klima, the GT Pro safety wise isn't a whole lot more dangerous than this

[@eyebahnrides]

The thing with large heavy high powered scooters in NYC is its tough in general to get around. I believe the GT Pro has a more "instant power delivery" compared to the controllers on the GT, GTR and the Burn E so it makes it tougher to control in low speed situations. So navigating highly dense areas and trying to control that front end when the road conditions aren't perfect is going to be tougher. Honestly, it's all pretty dangerous but its the best way to get around. Other thing to consider is how your building will perceive the GT pro. Unless you live in a home or with have a landlord/neighbors that don't care, the larger scooters are a bit tougher to live with. But, if you're ok with learning how to ride it and you're ok with storage, the GT pro will be a great scooter for the rough roads

[@evangelosemanueltsarnas6465]

thank you for that, I agree!@@eyebahnrides

[@allentituspaz3241]

I gotta ask, and curious. Why E-scooter drivers doesnt have a removable seats? and Isn't it tiring to drive while standing too long?

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for coming along on this ride Allen! Most of us don't use the seats on these scooters mostly because it's ugly lol. Also, NYC regulations states that "stand up scooters" are legal and the you may run the risk of getting stopped if your scooter looks like a moped that needs to be registered. I've done some pretty long rides with a stand up scooter and its not bad as long as you can change your stance!

[@munkee1]

Have you thought about a smaller city like Phoenix that is still a melting pot of cultures. Even having a small yard and garage is great when you're over 30 and slowing down. Thanks for sharing your interesting rides.

[@eyebahnrides]

thanks for coming along for the ride and welcome to the channel John! Honestly, I've never really thought about it because I always said that I'm a NYer through and through so there's no place for me but NYC. However, things are changing now that my wife and I are a bit more mature. I've never really thought about Phoenix before but I'll definitely look into it. My clients have told me to go to Austin, DC, Vegas, Denver, and Nashville so I've only really looked into those cities. The place I mentioned in the video that disappointed me was DC actually lol. I lived there for 3 years when I opened and ran sales offices for my old job back in 2006. We went there recently with my sister/brother in law and we had a blast.

u perfer riding on x/or turbo or C mode?

[@eyebahnrides]

Thanks for coming along on this ride Evangelos! My C mode is completely custom, so I actually prefer riding in it 75% of the time. I turned my C mode into "Commute" so I have the acceleration turned down while keeping the motor output high. It's just more comfortable to ride on a daily basis. I had the scooter on X Mode in this video because I thought the roads were going to be a bit more open sine it was later in the day lol

[@evangelosemanueltsarnas6465]

thats great dude! I think C is more comfortable than X but tried turbo 90% of time. I lived in Hells Kitchen for three years. I was on the Kabbo Matins I got on frost street with Chuck, im In Houston Texas for the year. I upgrated to the Klima just this month but man I miss with a passion zipping around in nyc.

You know bro got money when all his gripes about New York are based in crowding. Idgaf about the people, I can deal with that. He wasn't even in any real danger in this video. What most New Yorkers complain about the city is the MONEY.. It is insanely expensive to live here and is getting worse. Not a problem for Eyebahn tho, he's more concerned about seasonal foot traffic lol

🤔 I spent a good quarter of the video talking about how expensive the cost of living is and how we want to leave NYC. We all have our struggles, some of us just don't air our dirty laundry and drama on KZbin for views and likes. But to each their own

I didn’t know complaining about traffic and crowds made you rich. I also complain about that. I guess we are rich now 🫡

@@khanrides I wish I knew that we had it like that. If I did, I wouldn't be working 50-60 hours/ week on top of trying to grow the channel =(.
