I am new to e-bikes, need help

[Polaris steve]

I’ve been riding motorcycles since 1962, just now getting into e-bikes
bought 2 Polaris vector e-bikes used. 2013 model
I do need some help with an issue. Will post on tech forum.

Polaris: It is a mistake in judgement to assume that you can take an ebike on the same trails that you did on a motorcycle. The weight to power ratio of an ebike will doom your attempts. So will the range of an ebike. In order to traverse rock gardens, sand pits, pumice, steep uphills an ebike must operate at level 5, that will drain the battery in 5 miles. If you insist on offrading on an ebike, shell out $6k plus for a top of the line full suspension 2.8" tire ebike. Read the forums and comments carefully, for it's often that "what is not said" is the truth.

Total garbage ebike.

177wh battery will get you roughly about 2-3miles. given the heavy use and age of the battery.

I would dispose off it immediately . .
