GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
Vehicle range is defined as the distance that your motorcycle will
travel on a single full charge of the battery. This range may vary
due to many factors, including, the speed at which the motorcycle
is ridden, how hard you accelerate, the type of journey undertaken
(stopping and starting), the ambient temperature, use on inclines, and
the general service condition of your motorcycle.
As a direct reflection of your riding habits,
it is advised to ride your
motorcycle conservatively, especially for first time use. You may
expect better range when ridden conservatively.
An electric vehicle’s energy consumption is averaged out over shorter
distances and it is designed to be recharged daily. Therefore, your
motorcycle may yield different ranges from one charge to the next.
The range may be increased by following the guidance notes
below:
• Type of commute : use on flat smooth roads, riding slower and
making fewer stops.
• Style of riding : maintaining a consistent speed, maintaining a
streamlined riding position to reduce drag and reducing the
weight of any cargo.
• Weather conditions : use during warmer, drier weather, riding
against less wind and on dry roads.
• Service condition : taking care of your motorcycle, making sure
the tyres are inflated to the correct pressure.
Using the driving modes 1, 2 or 3 will also affect the overall range
that your motorcycle can travel.
Note : The motorcycle is not designed for commercial
use. Incorrect use will invalidate the warranty, For further
information, see Maeving warranty terms and conditions on
page 77.
