An electric Rad Power bike

5 levels of pedal assist or throttle only.
25-45 mile range between battery charges.
750 watt geared hub motor.
20mph top speed...that keeps it classified as a bike in CA. No special license needed.
Fat tires for off road/trails
It folds up for easy transport.

I know Hasbean will be jealous..:D

If this Bike "IS YOURS Eel" say what it it your choice. Say the price. Say why one of us would enjoy it in Hunting "State Zone or Unit"...and write more. I know you have desired such a Bike but Cost, Recharging afield, and what Db (Decibel) is it loudest at {Sound Level} + will a Deer or Elk be used to its noise vs a Diesel engine they hear all year Logging...?

By the way, did you Hunt last year..? get a Buck..?

Shall you Hunt red meat via the Bike...?
 
The bike is very quite and Eel uses it to sneak into shelter cove for squatter rights on my Cuz's property. He can also carry a gallon of kerosene on the back to build a white man's fire at shelter cove.

Yes, it is a 2018 Walt. A few upgrades over the 2017's.

RELH, you noticed the kerosene rack on the back. Good eye.

Jager, I hunted, but no deer last year. I broke a three year streak, but I was laid up for a couple weeks during the best hunting. I got an antelope in Nevada though.

I'm almost 70 and haven't been on a bicycle since about the age of 16, so it's been fun. This is the only bike I've ridden with more than one speed too. Gets kind of confusing at times. Wife made me get a helmet...ugh. :D

Very nice Eel

I see now why you got the other one because it folds up in the back of the truck. I like the fenders and rack in the back as I have ordered those for my RadRover

I have put about 100 miles on it since I got it at Christmas and have a blast on it. No hill too big and that has been an issue for me for a long time.

Once the warranty is out you can switch to a bigger battery with a 150 hour charge on it, making it easy to go hunting in it for a week without a charge.

I say silent but deadly, I crack up when someone asks how it performs at 9,000 feet altitude and the answer is simple, it does slow down as it does require a guy to still peddle it and at altitude that could be a little hard. LOL but then you just turn on the throttle and away you go. Love it

I'll race you in the cove this summer what do you say?
 
DeerHunter53, since we'll camp at overton's, we'll race from there to the boat launch (mostly all down hill....:D)

No carburetor adjustment needed at 9,000 ft. On the bike anyway.

I ended up taking the back wheel off to mount the rear fender. There's a video on how to do that.

We need a TEAM of MM'y, "FRIENDS" to support each other.

2lumpy, may I pay for a train Ride for you and your Mrs to visit Eel...? Sorry long ago the Gentleman Hunting Ducks in the Upper Sacramento Valley failed to Host you, on his tab.

Folks write about their world yet do not issue $$$$ for loyal MM'y Pals to travel and join them.

BigJontT and DW + Many readers could share more but they are wise not to. True Camp Hunting FRIENDS are earned and Rare. Loyal Mountain Men. I Miss such friends. They have all died. Hence why I ask for invites only in this group.

PS: 1911, PM me if you ever wish to. i will be Honored and Humbled.
 
That bike is so eel can raid pot grows under the cover of darkness and stealth to buy The Antelope Island tag in Utardia.
 
>Weed is legalized..
>Everyone I know has a grow
>in there closet..harvest every 90
>days..year round...
>Goose

in their closet?? You need to get out more. How much you asking for your rascal eel? I might buy it in hopes of your island dream and donate it to the convelesent home for a write off. :))).
 
Geez Eel how long did it take to do that? that back wheel is something else. Quite the undertaking.
I'll bring mine to Overton's place and you can help me put mine on before we race. LOL Your on Big Guy
 
Jagerdad yes I will do that if Eel will pull that ridiculous trailer behind him. LOL

Jager just so you know when we go to the Cove it is to fill the freezer with meat.
 
I have thought about one of those cool rides. Not legal in many wildlife areas here in Utah. Can?t even ride my mountain bike in some areas. Definitely nice and quiet. ?
 
That is a cool bike Eel. I like the model with rack and floor board thingys.

Be nice when electric utvs become common. Then maybe we can get some peace and quiet.
 
Very nice Eel, those Ebikes are getting better all the time. I haven't tried one yet. Enjoy it.

Hasbean
 
Big John you could ride these bikes all over Fish Lake area. I know the area pretty good. The steep hills you just go to all electric power and pedal the rest.
Quiet as a church mouse!

Eel and I are going to have an old man race at the cove. Should be good for a few laughs LOL

When you think of bike riders I am sure Eel and I don't fit the picture. But that is what's cool about these bikes you just hit the power button!
 
What about BUMPS and a heavy old guy on a skinny thin seat...?

I would need to have the seat Surgically Removed after each ride.

:-( Jagerdad :-(
 
Eel you can go use my place at Shelter Cove. You will have company. I leased my place to a Mexican drug lord but I'm sure he won't mind having visitors.

Hasbean, wow! That's quite the bike that I can only imagine. That is a whole different world. If I was 40 years younger......

overton, thanks for the invitation. He already offered me a job. Be sure to call me before you decide to go visit your place. I'll make sure you're safe. Do NOT come unannounced...:D

Eel,

The Guy?s at the shop were trying to get me to demo it, they said it has a high wow factor. Range is about 75 miles of trail riding, depending. They said a Guy who bought it carries a second battery and can go anywhere there is a legal trail on the Grand Mesa all day long.

Hasbean
 
Hey Eel

I saw that buck go through Overton's lot the other day, even though he has lost his horns he is a brute. I think we can get him this year. it might take some doing but between us to old fellas I think we can manage.

As far as the old guy race,

I say we start at the general store or just up the street at overton's lot and race to the marina and back up to the top.

Tell Jsvier to let no one on the lot unless they are on the list!!! and don't shoot so quick it might be you or me coming in. LOL
 
DeerHunter53, the race is off. I was riding a trail this morning and I came upon two girls pushing baby strollers hogging the whole trail. They were talking a mile a minute and I didn't want to disturb them and there was a wide spot, so I rode off into the weeds to pass them. I hit something and lost control. Over I went! Lol

The bike was fine. I was fine....except for my pride when the one girl ran over to see if I was hurt. Embarrassing.

YUP....After 70 Years you are New to Bikes and especially; Young Gals.

Face it Eel, my dry humor is no good to awaken Elk in Dah winter and your attributes are only appreciated by Us, MM'eys friends.

Even the Ferns & GRASS U plowed into had recovered. Continue The Race. DeerHunter53 might be u writing to yourself. Hence, never Banned.

Jagerdad with Hugs :)
 
It happens Eel, years ago I hit a light pole on my bike while ogling a Gal. Today I'd probably get a sex offense for that as well as the bruise I got.

Hasbean
 
Haz-Bean, you are a Smart guy. But I feel we could use some 2lumpy Sauce on this.

Maybe we will really Laugh, together if 2lumpy strolls in, maybe NVBighorn, BigJohnT and 1911 on a traffic Advertisement :)

Good thing for Happy California Humbolt Gals.... Did someone say race to the Beach (Boys)....?

Jagerdad :)
 
Eel

I'm still laughing, that's frickin hilarious, what did you say when she asked if you were OK.

I would have given anything to see that, That fact that I would be laughing all the way back to trailhead wouldn't be too good for your ego. LOL

It's a very heavy bike and I imagine that if I got into a tight space it might have the same consequences.

Now you know why Mrs Eel insisted on a helmet. Hope you didn't tell her so she could say I told you so.

While Eel was riding his e-bike, He swerved to avoid hitting a deer, lost control and landed in a ditch, severely banging his head. Dazed and confused Eel crawled out of the ditch to the edge of the road when a shiny new convertible pulled up with a very beautiful woman who asked,

"Are you okay?" As Eel looked up, He noticed she was wearing a low cut blouse with cleavage to die for...

"I'm okay, I think," Eel replied as he pulled himself up to the side of the car to get a closer look. She said,

?Get in and I'll take you home so I can clean and bandage that nasty scrape on your head.?

"That's nice of you," Eel answered, ?but I don't think my wife will like me doing that!?

"Oh, come now, I'm a nurse," she insisted. "I need to see if you have any more scrapes and then treat them properly."

Well, she was really pretty and very persuasive. Being sort of shaken and weak, Eel agreed, but repeated,

"I'm sure my wife won't like this."

Eel arrived at her place which was just few miles away in Shelter Cove, and after a couple of cold beers and the bandaging, Eel thanked her and said,

"I feel a lot better, but I know my wife is going to be really upset, so I'd better go now."

"Don't be silly!" she said with a smile, while unbuttoning her blouse exposing the most beautiful set of breasts Eel had ever seen.

"Stay for a while. She won't know anything. By the way, where is she?"

"Still in the ditch with my e-bike, I guess."

True story

Thank You Overton. I am Humbled by your reply.

I had to ask permission of the man (MM'ey Member) who sent me the email. I simply got permission and modified the email to help hug Eel.

Eel, you represent so much, to everyone.

Jagerdad :)
 
LAST EDITED ON Mar-07-18 AT 07:33AM (MST)[p]You guys do know that if my wife reads this I'll be forced to sell the bike, right? Either that or she'll hide my helmet. :D

By the way...the day I crashed. When I road back I met the two girls again. They saw me coming and gave me a wide berth this time..even more embarrassing.
