Talaria sting R mx4 Two weeks of ownership |Galvanic ep. 1|

Here I talk a little bit about my thoughts on the new 2023 talaria sting R mx4. This is the first episode of a new vlog series. This bike has been an absolute dream to own and I couldn’t have been more pleased with this purchase. Like I said in the video this in no way could replace a dirt bike but it is great in its own unique ways. Let me know what you would want to see more of in the next video!

“Your friends will want one, but won’t buy one” so true! Story of my life! 🤣😂😂

[@franklinwill22]

It's a financial liability....😅😂

[@jimboinvt]

Thanks for your report!! I’m on the edge of buying one!

[@bikelifeforever5806]

Dude.. I didn’t expect to get to the end of the video to see a brand new channel, your content is great and the location for more video opportunity is endless. keep up the good work looking foward to more👌🏼

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Haha thank you! I really appreciate that! I’ll be dropping another video tomorrow, not my typical video but after that one we will be back to moto-vlog style!

[@ubroberts5541]

Thanks for the video. I’m picking mine up tomorrow.

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

That’s awesome I’m stoked for you!

[@sirashley2355]

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Haha thank you! The next upload is going to be a non typical video about an issue I had with the bike but after that we’ll be back to motovlog style videos!

[@michaelramirez8036]

[@JohnSmith-sj2dk]

[@baphisto]

Dope video

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Thank you 🙏

[@brandonwilliam5684]

Nice review, right to the chase and no bs. Keep going!

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Thank you I really appreciate it🙏

[@jensenbell4429]

Nice video!

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@fwainkey1355]

Just wanted to know how long you think it lasts cruising on eco vs wheelie and ripping it. Getting one soon and my friend has one and it lasts a while

[@woodtickgreg6926]

Nice video, great scenery. And really clear audio. What mic setup are you using?

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

It’s a GoPro hero 8 with a media mod and I’m using the saramonic mic from Best Buy! And thank you! The PNW is too gorgeous 😅🌲

[@JohnjaesonManalocobilla]

hey man . just want an opinion bro. in my weight 214lb at 94 kilos . isnt its not going to be a hard . to drive and ride talaria sting .. im going to buy one this month .. just wanna know cause you have already one of talaria sting and you have experience on it . thanks bro . peace !

[@willywiggly2385]

Everyone says once I get on I'm gonna wanna buy a whole bunch of aftermarket parts. Honestly (other than a bigger rear sprocket and the limiter cut) I'm probably gonna be just fine with it being stock.

[@bakin9896]

Hey could you do a How to on how you cleaned up all the wires on the handlebar?

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Yeah I’ll have to put some thought into that! Thanks for the video idea!!!

[@JoshuaCussins]

Yo it looks like a nice place where is this.

[@ubroberts5541]

The only thing I might do is put 19” rim on front and a 17” one the rear, along with new tires and a bigger rear sprocket. That’s it.

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

That would be sick! Gotta love a good mullet setup! And it comes factory with 19’s

[@cxxx54]

Is there no way to deactivate the break sensors programming them out ?

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Not that I am aware of without possibly upgrading the controller?! Everyone seems to just unplug them and tuck them in near the battery!

[@raphaeld8623]

Quick one: what's your size and weight ? Would you recommend it for a guy ove r200pounds ?

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Absolutely haha I’m like 5foot 7in and weigh about 206 pounds. And I’m honestly super comfy on the bike. I might get razor handlebars just because I like to stand a lot and if you’re tall are, you would definitely want risers but other than that I fit great and the bike still hauls ass with me being over 200 pounds.

[@josephgermain2003]

What's your height/weight? I'm 6'3" 220 and was leaning towards the sting r myself as I'm a bigger boy. There's so many trails around Houston, I think I'd never be home exploring them all >

[@mrjamessweeney1]

I’m 6’1, 220 and I’d also like to know wonder if there’s a weight limit

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

I’m actually pretty short and bulky! I weigh 206 pounds and I am 5’7 and this bike feels great for me! However, I would definitely recommend a set of riser bars for either of you! I’m considering some myself, and both of you are much taller than me! But other than that the bike rips even with me, weighing as much as I do!

[@GameFanaTICK386]

Had mine for 2 weeks. I upload it on my "E-Ride Fanatick" channel. Maybe I should do a 2 week review myself? My tires aren't as worn as yours, and I pretty much street ride. Question, have you cut the brown wire or not? If not? Cutting it will unlock your top speed and torque. It didn’t look like you were getting as much power.

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

I also have almost 200 miles on my bike and have a background in downhill mountain biking, I ride this bike hard 😅 and yeah the wire is clipped. I kinda thought the same thing I was honestly expecting it to be quicker but it may also be the difference in our weight.

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

And you absolutely should do that! I love making these videos!!!!

[@GameFanaTICK386]

@EmptyEyeMedia Oh, cool, you did snip the wire, i just couldn't tell, lol. What upgraded tires are you considering?

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Sorry just now seeing this! I’m thinking about doing a direct mount stem and some riser bars I just did upgraded break pads and the Shinko 244 tires!

[@brandonreagh8771]

I’m lookin to buy one and I’m wondering if it would support my height and weight: 6’1 and 215?

[@bakin9896]

I’m have one and I’m 6’0 240 the bike is awesome it does need a little bit of modifications to make it more comfortable like but not much I’ll say it’s worth it! Lol

[@brandonreagh8771]

@@bakin9896 thanks man!

[@liambowers9489]

Had mine for a week and a half. I’ve hit the horn on accident every time I’ve rode.

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Hahaha dude same here I’m honestly considering taking it off cuz I never use it anyways 😅

[@Dimsum8822]

Nice. Where do u live?

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

I’m in the great Pacific Northwest!

[@brokenmolly6061]

Nice vid

[@wheels.3239]

Did you unlock it or cut the wire yet?

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Yessir! This bike is unlocked! I rode it limited the first day to get used to it then clipped the wire the next day!

[@wheels.3239]

@@EmptyEyeMedia 🙃😄😄 Also awesome first vid mate, From Australia.

[@user-up7yn2kn6u]

this is an electric e bike or an electric dirt bike? I cant tell the difference

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Lol I can’t tell either 😅

[@ChefBased888]

What state are you in ?

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

I’m in Washington the PNW! 🌲🏔️🌧️

[@user-up7yn2kn6u]

is this at least street legal?

[@dhc8guru]

it’s kind of a grey area. Most cities/states don’t have any laws in place. It not a motorcycle and it’s not an e-bike. If you’re not riding around like an a-hole, the police aren’t going to bother you.

[@user-up7yn2kn6u]

@@dhc8guru ok thank you,

[@franklinwill22]

Developers simply killed the river...sad, future kids can't experience same joys you did.

[@realkidcarter]

Im not tryna make fun but the gopro makes you sound like the nerd emoji 🤓🤓🤓

[@jackjack4412]

It's the vibrations in the road

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

It’s because the microphone is super close to my mouth since it’s in the helmet. Also how do you know what the nerd emoji sounds like….

[@travis7860]

200 miles thats like 100 sets of tires after 25,000 mile lol

[@EmptyEyeMedia]

Yeahhh haha it’s just crappy factory tires 😅 and my hard riding. I just ordered a nice set! Will be making an install video soon!
