I have the street version with the higher gearing and it’s super fun! I keep it in mode 4 pretty much at all times and launch at stop lights and stop signs just about every time as well lol can’t help it

[@TroyOneOn]

If you’re a mode 4 guy all of the time I saw a video where they show the app and that you can lock it into a preferred mode i.e. mode 4 for max torque and top speed. That said I’ve seen a lot of videos with slightly conflicting information so I don’t know if this is still the case. If true though it would be nice to not have to constantly change modes all of the time and just leave it in the mode you prefer.

[@ColbyLamb15]

@@TroyOneOnyes you can lock it in whatever mode you want it to stay in. I personally don’t mind switching through them because I’m the morning when I am going down my street for work I’ll ride it in 2 then put it in 4 after. You can just tap the mode button quickly and it goes up so it’s not like it takes much time to flick through them like you can go from life 1 tap it real fast and with in like a second or two your in mode 4 so 🤷🏻‍♂️ not that bad

I used to own a Zero FXS 7.2K and visited the LAND factory in Cleveland to look at their bikes. They are solid! I'd say they are about 80% the speed, price, and weight of a Zero FX/FXS.

Under $9k! It shouldn't cost more than the Honda Shadow Phantom or Honda Rebel 1100. For an accessory it should also include a holder for a HT/Mobile Ham Radio and a Mic and a HT antenna mount for the rear and a place for a cellphone too. Extra storage and drink holders as well. Left Handed operation would be nice as well... (Not everyone is right handed or have one!!!)

The Land district bike or Ryvid anthem?? How would you compare them being someone that has ridden both?.. Great video!

[@Area13ebikes]

Both fun! Ryvid does not pull nearly as hard on acceleration. It's quick but not the same "wow" factor or adrenaline rush. Handling was smooth on the ryvid, build quality excellent as well. More creature comforts (adjustable saddle height, trigger regen, etc) much wider rear tire. I view them more as options for different styles or preferences and less of which one is better. Both great, Land was the more "exciting" bike to ride due to power delivery.

[@TroyOneOn]

I haven’t ridden either bike but they both look like they’d be fun. I’ve seen videos of both on removing the battery for charging and the District is much simpler hands down.

Interesting idea! I like the simplicity of the current gearing but a wider range would be cool.

[@choppergirl]

From 20 years of motorcycling experience... there needs to be cargo carrying capacity. It needs to have a pickup truck bed in the back. That's the first thing I add to all my motorcycle, to carry a huge dufflebag on top. Here's the deal you find out fast when riding motorcycles exclusively. You've got to eat. Every trip you make, you need to be bringing groceries home. If you haven't set up your bike to carry cargo, it's pretty much useless. Sport bikes... ninja bikes... useless, don't even consider them. Without a rear seat or luggage rack to put cargo over or weighted on, this bike is going to be problematic in that regard. It could be fixed, but as it is, your cargo is going to be hanging way out back there. Maybe a tall sissy bar with a duffle bag stood vertically behind you? Can it support it? Covering up rear lights? Problematic. Otherwise, I like it, except for the chain drive and the fenders that are way too short. Dirt and mud and grease and sand... everywhere. And once you go shaft (or hub) drive, you never want to go back to chain. And it needs to be under 2K. Not joking, that's what I paid for all my motorcycles, under 2K... some of them, well under 2K. And I prefer mine were made by Honda actually, or Nissan or Toyota, but that's beside the point, it's irrelevant. Most of the parts on this bike are going to be sourced from China anyway, no matter where it's assembled or what final stamp you put on it.

What version would you recommend of the District if you wanted one of these for commuting but did want to take if off road on the weekends. Would the scrambler with its different gear ration and lower top speed feel to limited for daily driving? For daily use though would probably only hit the highways for brief stints.

[@Area13ebikes]

55mph highway or 65mph roads? If 55 you really would be happy with the lower gearing. Good thing is you can always change it later. I had a ton of fun on the 55mph setup. The torque was almost too much at times with the street tires.

[@waynerhea6649]

What about this vs the javlin from sparks ebike or the brute obviously less capacity but for 4-5k may be better value

[@daniellongley5667]

These look a lot cleaner tbh. And I’m patiently awaiting my javelin (ordered 5 weeks ago and looking like it will be 5 more unfortunately). Also the first people to receive the javelin are claiming a top speed of only 48mph…. So 20mph less than what they have been claiming. Honestly am pretty frustrated as someone that ordered both a javelin and brute and kinda wishing I would have just shelled out the money for one of these instead..

Rarely, if ever, do I expect to hit the highway, but nice to know I can in a pinch for a few miles.

Different bikes, not sure if "better" is the right term. The Ryvid has some nice creature comforts like the adjustable ride height of the saddle, trigger activated regen, and batteries also removable but on wheels. Build quality in both excellent. The Land has noticeably more torque and faster acceleration. The ryvid had a much wider rear tire and felt very stable at highway speeds. Both very fun to ride! Ryvid was quieter of the two, no audible motor noise past 30mph or so. You'd be happy with either. I'd go Land if you want the adrenaline rush of the acceleration or the scrambler off road capability. Ryvid if you're sticking more to street and want it's looks or things mentioned above.
