The Motopai is the sleek little electric dynamo by Easy-Watts hitting the scene with style. Slim, lightweight, and packed with good vibes, this gem from Brittany combines agility, eco-friendliness, and fun at every corner. We’re not just talking about an “electric motorcycle,” but a true tech marvel in an ultra-compact package. So grab your helmet, let’s take a tour!
A Sharp Turn in the World of Two-Wheelers
If you’ve seen the Easy-Watts electric scooters, you know they mean business. This time, the brand takes it up a notch, diving into the electric motorcycle segment. And let’s be honest, their Motopai has everyone nodding in agreement. Approved for road use, it also tackles trails, enduro tracks, and motocross adventures. With its 50cc engine, it holds its own against the big bikes. Weighing just 138.3 lbs, it’s the perfect ride for those seeking lightweight, power, and efficiency.
Battery and Range: Go the Distance
Under the tank (almost), you’ll find a 72V 34Ah LG lithium-ion battery, delivering an impressive 2.44 kWh capacity. In eco mode, you can travel up to 62 miles effortlessly, perfect for urban rides or forest jaunts. Switch to sport mode for an adrenaline rush; you’ll trade some range (37 miles), but the thrill is amplified.
Worried about charging? Relax: the battery is removable and weighs 30.8 lbs, making it easy to carry around. With a 10A charger, it regains 80% power in 3 hours, and just an additional 30 minutes gets it fully charged. How awesome is that?
Lightweight Ride with a Striking Look
138.3 lbs. Can you believe it? It’s among the lightest electric motorcycles around. The result: top-notch maneuverability, perfect for off-road fun. Its adjustable suspension: hydraulic front fork and rear gas shock, provide a perfect balance of comfort and performance, even on rugged terrain.
As for style, the Motopai is a head-turner. Its design is fluid, modern, and undeniably sleek. With flashy colors (yellow, orange, red, green) and a customizable decal kit, you can create a unique ride. And let’s face it, with a purple gradient, it’s fire on the roads! 🔥
Riding Comfort: Never Felt So Good
Whether you’re tall or short, no worries: the Motopai adapts to all sizes with its 32.7-inch seat height and well-thought-out dimensions. Its light weight makes it effortlessly easy to handle, even for beginners or those not too familiar with larger bikes.
For security, it covers the basics: side stand and handlebar lock. But nothing’s stopping you from adding a chain or a disk lock if you’re cautious.
Speed-wise, it hits 28 mph in max mode, perfect for city rides or laid-back cruising. Want to take it slow? Cap it at 18.6 mph for a relaxed ride. But if you crave that punch, its brushless motor with 8 hp peak (4 hp nominal) and a torque of 280 lb-ft will bring a smile to your face. In sport mode, it’s a real blast of freedom.
Connected, Even on the Road
Here’s a nice tech bonus: an integrated USB port lets you charge your smartphone while you ride. Perfect for tech-savvy riders who need their GPS or want to stay reachable. No mirroring yet, but honestly, it’s pretty great as is!
What Will It Cost You?
Here’s the scoop: the Motopai starts at €5,390. But with an eco bonus of €610 in 2024, the price drops to around €4,780. If you’re a pro based in the Île-de-France region, you could snag an additional €1,500 support. Essentially, you could get it for €3,280. Not bad for a bike that’s both awesome and planet-friendly, right?
