Who is the MT2 for?
The MT2 mainly targets three profiles:
- Electric dirt bike beginners — An affordable entry-level price to discover off-road riding without spending €3,000+. The 1500 W motor is powerful enough to have fun without being dangerous.
- Teenagers (14+ under supervision) — Light and easy to handle, the MT2 suits light to medium builds. Its instant torque makes it intuitive to get to grips with.
- Adults riding for fun — Forest rides, country tracks, private land. Perfect for the weekend without the hassles of a petrol bike (noise, fuel, maintenance).
Our field test: performance and ride feel
Motor and acceleration
The 1500 W brushless motor delivers the instant torque typical of electric bikes. Acceleration is punchy from the very first metres, ideal off-road. The 45 km/h top speed is reached quickly and is more than enough for amateur motocross. On climbs, the motor copes well with moderate slopes (15-20%).
Range and battery
The 48 V 22.5 Ah battery gives between 40 and 60 km of range depending on the terrain and the rider's weight. On flat ground, 55-60 km is easily reached. Off-road with elevation changes, expect around 35-40 km instead. The battery is removable, so you can charge it separately — a real plus compared with models that have a built-in battery.
Comfort and suspension
The puncture-proof tyres soak up uneven ground well. The seat is comfortable for one-hour sessions. Beyond that, you start to feel the limits of a budget model. The hydraulic disc brakes provide powerful, progressive braking that is reassuring on descents.
Display and connectivity
The colour LCD display with NFC is a strong point. It shows speed, battery level, riding mode and mileage. NFC lets you unlock the bike without a key.

MT2 vs the competition: comparison
| Model | Power | Range | Price | Use |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MT2 | 1500 W | 40-60 km | €1,159 | Leisure, beginner |
| Sur-Ron Light Bee X | 6000 W | 60-80 km | €5,800 | Semi-pro, enduro |
| Venom V7 | 3000 W+ | 50-70 km | €7,130 | Experienced motocross |
| Hidoes G2 | 3500 W | 50-80 km | €1,179.99 | Road + off-road |
The MT2 is clearly positioned in the budget/entry-level segment. If you want more power, the Hidoes G2 at €1,179.99 offers 3500 W for €20 more. For semi-professional use, the Sur-Ron Light Bee X remains the benchmark, but at around five times the price.
FAQ — Frequently asked questions about the MT2
Is the MT2 road-legal?
No. The MT2 is intended for private land use only. To ride on public roads, you need a type-approved motorcycle with registration, a registration certificate and insurance.
What is the difference between an electric and a petrol motorcycle?
Electric has many advantages: silent operation (no noise nuisance), zero emissions, minimal maintenance (no oil change, no air filter, no spark plug), and instant torque available from 0 km/h. The only drawback is range, but with its 40-60 km the MT2 easily covers a leisure session.
How long does it take to charge the battery?
Allow about 5 to 7 hours for a full charge. As the battery is removable, you can charge it indoors without having to move the bike.
Is the MT2 suitable for a child?
The MT2 is recommended from age 14 under adult supervision. For younger children, we recommend our JKING kids' motorcycles (ages 3-10, 160 W).
Can you buy an extra battery?
Yes. As the battery is removable and a standard 48 V unit, you can buy a spare battery to double your range on the trail.
