Razor MX400 Dirt Rocket Electric Motocross Bike Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)You would expect the MX400 to be an improvement over the MX350 but having seen my son on both it was clear the old MX350 had a much better design.
The biggest problem with the new bike is that the front and rear suspensions have now been removed and the frame is rigid. So unless your child is only riding on the street, it's a very harsh ride to say the least. You can air down the tire to give you a little more chushion but it's a poor compromise.
The second problem is that the twist throttle is no longer variable speed. The throttle is now a twist version of a light switch. Again this provides very jerky movement of the bike and detracts from the fun a child has while using it.
My recommendation is to buy an older MX350 (if you can find one) or to move up to the MX500 until Razor get these items changed on their latest design. C'mon Razor, I know you can do better than this.

Currie Technologies e-Zip E750 Electric Scooter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wanted a scooter to take around town instead of using my gas guzzling car. I had a 49cc scooter, but I sold it and got this instead. Even though it goes half of the speed of the gas scooter, it's much much quieter (not that it doesn't make a sound, it does). It was pretty easy to get together and I zipping around in no time. I'm never going back to a gas scooter or bike again.
Advantages:
No pollution
The handlebars fold up and seat comes off very easily, like a Dahon folding bike, for easy storage
Smooth ride
Disadvantages:
Not really powerful. This is for moving around town, not going on long rides.
Range. It goes 12 miles. Which means, going at a constant maximum speed, you'd get almost 50 minutes of use of it.

Razor Pocket Mod Miniature Euro Electric Scooter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When my 11-year old started begging for an electric scooter, we were very hesitant. A neighbor has one and it's the stand-up kind with a VERY loud motor that drives us nuts on the weekends. We gave in, and went shopping. While we were reviewing the standing scooter, we noticed the Razor Pocket Mod and it was the SAME PRICE! I, of course, thought it was adorable and my daughter was easily swayed.
It was easy to put together and charge, however pumping the tires was a wee bit difficult just because of the angle required. The tires are nice and fat/sturdy, too, so riding offroad or over small rocks wasn't an issue. The biggest thing we noticed though, was that it is AMAZINGLY QUIET! What a blessing compared to the neighbor's noisy scooter! It practically 'purrs' and you don't even hear it until you are right next to it.
Seeing her ride it is incredible! It is VERY easy for any child that can balance and ride a bike. The handle brakes/gas takes a bit of getting used to, but after a few days she was a pro! Her papa rides a motorcycle, so he was dying to check it out. Weighing in about 180lbs, he was able to ride it as well! My daughter got a big kick out of that.
The battery lasts quite a while! An hour may not sound like a lot of time, but if it's not continuous (kids stop/start chat/ride/play) it can last hours. It charges quickly and easily, and it's small and fits well in the side of the garage. Though she's 11, we were told by the salesman that younger kids who are responsible can definitely ride it.
It IS fast, though, which was a bit unnerving at first. It doesn't sound like 15 MPH is that fast (I think that's what it is), but when you see your child going down a hill that fast - it seems quite scary! It doesn't turn quite as sharply as a bike or standing scooter can, so they have to learn it's limitations. Definitely get a helmet and kneepads!
This is the BEST ITEM we have purchased for her in YEARS! Highly recommended!

Razor E300 Electric Scooter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Like some reviews, my 8-year-old son's first E300 only ran about ten minutes per charge and 13mph max speed (yes, I have a radar gun). Troubleshooting sent us toward a dragging brake, but the brake adjustment was fine. The chain, however, was super tight (I'm an old motorcycle racer, so I know a lot about chain tension). I loosened the chain tension, but no improvement, and returned the entire unit. (I suspect either a bad battery or the overly tight chain tension damaged the motor armature.) When the next E300 showed up, I checked the chain immediately out of the box. Again, super tight. I loosened the chain (extra loose for the first run, maybe 3/4" play) and completed the rest of the setup. The unit performed flawlessly. Speed was consistently 17mph and still running strong after 35 minutes (we've only done two test runs so far). Slightly tightened chain tension to about 1/2" after first run. Also, as noted by another reader, we looked everywhere for the rear tire inflater extension, only to find it inside the right handlebar grip cap. Good luck figuring that out when it isn't in the directions. The E300 is sturdily built - a lot more than I would expect for the money. I weigh 210 lbs and the structure doesn't flinch when I climb aboard (although the motor is clearly not intended for any hills or probably heavy riders). My son is about 60 lbs and we live in Florida (no hills), so this thing will hopefully last a long time. If you live where there are hills or you weigh more than 150 lbs, I recommend you look for another scooter. Happy riding.Razor E300 Electric Scooter
Update: 10-01-2007 I took the E300 out for a test run myself after dropping my son off at school (I want to test the unit thoroughly inside the 30-day return policy). I cruised the entire neighborhood, local park and all around. It is a very blustery day (threatening rain and lots of wind), so I encountered lots of headwinds. Through the ride I was up and down small hills too. I did this entire drive without any stopping, and the E300 finally gave out at 25 minutes on the button (the motor was moderately hot to the touch). Because of my weight (210 lbs), I can tell the motor is small and not designed for any hills or adults, so I was very impressed by this performance, especially considering the occasional stiff headwinds that I could tell strained the motor (you have no choice but to stand straight up like a sail forcing against the motor). My 8-year-old son is about 65 lbs and has never seen the "low power" light yet during his two 35 minute runs. I still think we have winner!

Razor Ground Force Drifter Kart Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just got this for my kids, who are 5, 7, and 14. They love it! The 180 degree turns are fun, but it can also be controlled at slower speeds. My 5 year old isn't ready to go all out yet, and he uses the throttle lightly for a slower ride. It seems very safe as long as it's used away from traffic and obstacles. Definitely for paved areas, not grass.
Charge time is 12 hours, so it can only be used once a day in general. It was 40 degrees F today (about 4 degrees C) and we had it out for an hour. With downtime for changing riders, I'm guessing it lasted for about 40 minutes of ride time. Maybe it'll last longer in warmer weather.
It went noticeably slower with the 140 lb. 14 year old riding, but was still fun for him. Razor tends to give age recommendations that seem high. This is probably good for ages 5 - 12. Teens will want something more powerful.

From fun zones to pro tracks, go-kart racing is a stable of American entertainment. Now you can bring the fun home with you like never before with the Ground Force Drifter kart. Based on the original Ground Force, the Drifter offers such features as low-profile cast-aluminum wheels, a sturdy steel frame, and an upgraded rear axle for increased maneuverability. The kart's variable-speed, chain-driven motor, meanwhile, travels at speeds of up to 12 miles per hour, making the Drifter a force to be reckoned with.
The features that really set the Drifter apart, however, are the race-tuned chassis and super-slick rear wheels, which let you power slide through corners, throw fish tales, or perform fast 180s. Add in a thumb-trigger acceleration control and hand-operated rear brake and you're ready for a serious go-kart adventure. Other features include a pair of 12-volt batteries, which deliver approximately 45 minutes of drive time per charge; molded aluminum wheels and solid rubber tires; such safety features as a safety flag and durable bucket seat with a shoulder strap; and all the necessary tools for assembly.
The Ground Force Drifter supports drivers weighing up to 140 pounds and is backed by a 90-day warranty. It is designed for controlled environments free of potential traffic hazards and not public streets.

Razor E100/125/150 Electric Scooter battery Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered a part that was listed as the replacement part needed for the E100 Razor Scooter, but when it arrived it was not the correct part. When I ordered this part I actually trusted that this would be the part needed. Once I received the part I took apart the scooter and discovered the single battery should have been a dual battery with buit-in wires (sealed wires). When I contacted the company for a refund, I was told that I would have to pay the return shipping. The return shipping would cost more then the part itself and I had already paid that amount in the beginning... I would have actually spent about 3 times what the cost should have been, so needless to say that cost would not be very wise. Like I explained, that was the part the company SAID I needed form the scooter. During conversations I was told that was the "exact" part that I had ordered and they would not pay for my return shipping. My last contact from them stated, "I am very unfamiliar with the harnesses, it is something that we have never sold before. The only ones I have seen they are clipped on. Let me know what you deceide to do." The only option they ever gave me was to pay for the return shipping or order a second one at half price. Thanks but no thanks... My wife found the CORRECT part at another company and it was listed correctly...

Razor Pocket Rocket Miniature Electric Bike Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought this for our 9 year old son for christmas last year. He loves it. All the kids from the block come over and ride on it. He is big for his age and fits on fine. My husband even rides this thing. My son has had a few crashes(nothing major/not fast enough) and the razor pocket rocket held up fine. The age guide line could start at 8 or 9 because its so little. We feel this is a great toy and so far worth the money.

Razor E200 Electric Scooter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The scooter is good, works fine, good battery life and stable but with someone even close to the rated load it has inadequate clearance between the ground and the motor. I got this one for my wife the 100 for my child (she loves it) and the 300 for me. Just driving around the neighborhood and hitting little dips in the road on the 200 will cause the motor to hit the street very hard. The 100 has a solid wheel so even though the clearance is low it does not suffer the same fate. If you are going to get a bigger scooter than the 100 then go for the 300, the clearance issue is much improved for that model.

Cruise around the neighborhood in style with the Razor E200 electric scooter. An ultra-quiet chain-driven motor, and a handy twist-grip throttle accelerator, the E200 is the perfect device for teens and adults wanting to speed over to a friend's house or head to the park. Unlike Razor's E300S and E500S scooters--which offers a seated ride--the E200 requires you to stand while zipping through town.
But standing in the E200 isn't a problem thanks to the full-size deck and frame, which are custom designed for ages 13 and up. Once you're on the move, the variable-speed motor ramps up to 12 miles per hour--fast enough to have fun, but not fast enough to be a menace on the street or sidewalk.
The long-life rechargeable battery, meanwhile, lasts for up to 45 minutes of continuous use per charge (with an eight-hour charge time), so you can easily cruise to the grocery store and back without running out of juice. Other details include 8-inch pneumatic tires for a smooth ride, a hand-operated rear brake, and such accessories as a pair of 12-volt batteries, a charger, and tools. The E200, which offers a maximum weight limit of 220 pounds, is backed by a 90-day warranty.
The buyer and rider of the E200 scooter are responsible for knowing and obeying all local, state, and federal regulations regarding the riding and use of scooters.
