Razor RSF350 In-Depth Review - WITH CRASH!!

https://www.razor.com/products/electr...

This was filmed three days after getting the bike and riding it a LOT over those three days. So while it's still relatively new to us, we've used it enough to give a thorough review. Overall, the bike is fantastic, and he absolutely loves it along with all the other kids in the neighborhood. Here are a few points I forgot to mention in the video...

Age: Razor suggests 13+ but that's ridiculous. A 13yo would barely fit on this thing. I'd say it's about perfect for a 5-8yo. The 9yo kids in our neighborhood fit on it okay, but it's little a bit tight for them so I suspect we'll be upgrading this to one of Razor's 500 or 650 series motorcycles in a couple years. If your kid is comfortable and competent on a two-wheel bike, this will be easy for them. I would never let a kid on this motorcycle who needed training wheels on a regular bike.

Battery life: Razor's website says the battery lasts 30 minutes, but we're getting over an hour of run time. To put it another way, he's ridden around town over four miles at a time, and it easily made it home with plenty of charge to spare. The battery will likely degrade over time so maybe Razor's 30 minute time frame is an average throughout the bikes lifespan, but we're getting much more than that at this point.

Charging: Razor strongly suggests (which we did) a full 12h charge prior to riding the bike for the first time to help the battery establish it's memory. That said, the charger is painfully slow. After that first 12h charge, we've just been waiting until the light on the charger turns green before riding it again, but that can take up to 6h depending on how much it was run down before plugging it in. I haven't researched a fast charger option, but that will probably be the first thing I do to improve this bike's functionality.

Assembly/Maintenance: Assembly was very simple and involved just installing the handlebars with four screws. Razor doesn't explicitly recommend any routine maintenance, but I did notice the bike was squeaking quite a bit when it was brand new so I oiled the chain, front and rear hub bearings, and just about anything else I could think of that involved metal-on-metal. If you're comfortable with simple bicycle maintenance, this is no different.

RSF350 vs MX350: The neighbors have an MX350, and it's essentially identical to this bike from a mechanical and size standpoint. The chassis, motor, battery, and brakes are all the same. The plastic body panels, the seat, and the tires are purely aesthetics that make the two look so much different in pictures and in person. The MX350 has taller, dirt-bike style handlebars, but otherwise the bikes are basically the same size and speed as each other.
