EM (Electric Motion)

The map indicator light has stopped working on my '21 ePure Race. It became erratic a little while ago but then recovered. Now it's completely dead. I've cleaned the connector contacts and smeared with dielectric grease, but no joy. Has anyone else had the problem? How did you fix it?

Does anyone have a portable generator they use for charging the battery on a electric trials bike Electric Motion or similar. Thinking of buying one to extend time on bike and looking at options. What make & model do you use and are you happy with it. Alternatively have you bought a spare battery.

2023 Epure Race, manual pgs 33 and 35 and 36, TKO and TC Traction control do not seem to work, even after reset. (The FRB, motor braking works) EM Connect, the app, I can't get through the screen to enter a code. I have worked with the dealer, who is sending me a switch and diagnostic cable. Dealer says the feature is new and optional, it doesn't know. I have emailed EM France without any reply on these three issues. Is there something the dealer and I are missing? Thank you. John

howdy ! I'm looking for someone that has gotten there e-pure race plated. Or suggestions on parts that work good with other bikes. what did yall use for head light set up? brake light? just looking for technical information from some one that hade done this already ! I've been riding dirty on the road and I'm sure I'm pushing my luck. There is just to many good loading docks and church parking lots not to. (loc. WA state) thanks!

Lots of metal flake in the oil and magnetic drain plug got a ball of the stuff on it, never seen anything that intense. Anyone done first oil change yet and had it look better?

I've not yet opened the flywheel cover of my 2021 Race, even though I've had the bike for over 2 years. However, looking at the instructional videos on the EM website, it looks like the flywheel has 2 extra discs held by a ring of 6 screws. Am I right? Has anyone here tried removing the weights? As I don't use the clutch I'm thinking that I don't need the flywheel for winding up inertia before dumping the clutch. Instead I think I may get a little bit more snap for lifting over logs if the flywheel is lighter.

I'm 10 rides in on my 2023 EM pure race. I live and ride the steep trail geography in the mountains. However, I'm already needing more power for certain features (very, very steep rock pitches). The EM can't maintain the velocity required - it slows (bogs) on these few features. I thought to change the front and rear sprocket ratio to gain low end power, but on evaluation its already fitted with an 11 tooth front and 57 tooth rear - does this leave anywhere to go on this front? Can anyone think of a way to coax more grunt out of the bike? It feels like a way heaver flywheel might do something - if I could spool it up but I don't think that's really an option either. Than…

The missus has just bought a 2021 Epure race. We had a nice day testing it yesterday and she seems keen enough to keep it and sell her Beta. The big yes-no decision is to ride it in a trial proper rather than just on a practice ground. We have just tried to sign up for a trial and the machine details page needs a CC and engine stroke. I remember that ACU said electric bikes can now be entered into the normal trials but the electric motor has neither a cc nor a stroke. What do other people put in? (Clearly you can make up nonsense if you want but the results will show Electric Motion 250cc or some drivel which is not really "right") She very kindly let me ri…

Has anyone ridden the new '23 model back to back with a '22? There's some indication that the maps are significantly improved in terms of how fast the electric motor spins up and spins down. It seems like it may be slower, like they added some virtual rotational mass to the motor via the controller. This review (at minute 11:00) shows what appears to be a slower rev up and spin down of the electric motor, much like what I experience on my Gas Gas: I'm interested what the '23 is like relative to the '22, as I have struggled on my '22 Race with maintaining traction in loose conditions due the motor spinning up and down much more quickly as compared …

I just rode a 2022 (mine) and a 2023 EPure Race back-to-back. The shock on the 2023 seemed a little more active and lively. I'd love to upgrade, but I wanted to start by trying to adjust my shock. Has anyone else played with adjustments on the 2022? Any recommendations? (specifically to try to get closer to the Reiger feel)

A friend has a 22 Epure and the battery status is stuck at 0%. The bike works and appears to charge OK. Is there a way to reset or calibrate? Does anyone know how this works? Is it a simple voltage measurement used to estimate % charge?

In a moment of madness I decided to pull apart the rear suspension of my '21 ePure Race. Not surprisingly I found a few seized bearings, namely one of the dog bone ends and the lower end of the rear shock. Poor things, living on a diet of mud and water with the occasional bit of dust thrown in. Two questions really, so hopefully someone can prevent me from making any silly mistakes. I thought the whole rear suspension came from Sherco, but the dog bone bearings I found on the internet are plain teflon bushes and the EM bearings are needle rollers. Are they unique to EM, or am I looking in the wrong place? The dog bone bearings are a seriously tight fit an…

Not long had my 2022 ePure and have just arrived in Spain to give it a go, somewhat different to my back garden. I have the impression that the bike rolls on somewhat with the throttle closed, whereas in the garden, albeit very flat, I felt as though it always stopped. Is this normal? I did a decoder reset after being advised by a very useful YouTube video but it continues, and any sort of downslope requires braking. Second question is that I have an electric car and charge this with the public charge points some of which have a normal two pin socket, (I live in France), which my charger would fit. Would it be a safe way to recharge? Thanks.

Em pure 2022 What is the button for?

I know some of you might find this funny, given how much 'torque' is supposedly available for electric trials bikes, so bear with me. I'm just getting used to my new EM Pure Race 22, coming from a 2017 Montesa 4RT. I've owned many other brands as well, both 2 and 4 stroke. My initial observations riding the bike for a few hours, is the power comes on much more like a 2T, there isn't a lot of torque way down low, although for sure, there is *plenty* of power. I'm wondering if anyone has experimented with lowering the gearing a little bit more to try and obtain a bit more torque at the bottom end? Overall the bike is just amazing, I've been riding in mostly the Blu…

I've just bought a slightly secondhand Epure Race. First ride yesterday and I absolutely loved it. It's the Mutt's nuts, the dog's danglies, the canine's gonads, and every other euphemism you can think of. I'm now just starting on working through everything, cleaning, adjusting and learning, so I have a couple of questions to start off with: Does anyone have a clever way of refitting the chain tensioner? It came off with a mighty ping and looks like it will be a swine to get back on. Where is the oil drain plug and level window? So far I've only found the filler. Thanks.

I'm wondering what happened to the momentum behind Competition capable e-bikes? I have a video from 10 years ago that showed a prototype from Montesa, We know Gas Gas showed Raga on what seemed to be a solid looking prototype, where is that? the Em.7 is out there and looks like the best option available, but not much else has developed in the past few years. Beta? Sherco? Nothing that I'm aware of. There was this huge push, practically a mandate few years back by the FIM to make 4T bikes, those still are out there but with the mandate gone it seems 2T bikes are (thankfully) just as if not more popular than ever, good, but the innovation with e-bikes for Trials…

Anyone add a number plate? If so, what are you using?

Hi, I'm looking to buy a used Epure sport. The 2020 bikes are £1500 cheaper than the 2021 bikes. Was there much change from 2020 to 2021, all i can see is in reviews is the forks are better and there were small refinements to the power delivery on the 2021. Also is there a built-in hour meter or an indication of how many charge cycles it has done?

So my 22 comp has a clunking sound that is damn hard to track down. I initially thought it was the bolts from the frame dogbone contacting the dogbone off the shock as clearance is minimal and I did see what appeared to be scratches where you would expect them if it was impacting. well facing both bolts didn't resolve the sound. It's almost like a flex sound but nothing is loose, none of plastic is flexing. it mostly happens on the top of the stroke but not always and sometimes it goes away altogether (but comes back after a couple bounces on the pegs... I disconnected the top of the shock, laid below and had a friend go through the stroke. There was no sound or anything …
