“I bought the Nami Burn E 2 about 3 weeks ago and I just love the scooter. I just ordered the MAX today so I'll be giving the E2 to my son so we can ride together. Also got the MAX at a great price. I can't wait. Nami Burn E for life.”
“Just got mine yesterday and was pissed seeing my front break line was busted already. I let them know about it and just waiting for response. The scooter is great eventhough I'm only using the back brakes. I'll just have to modify my front tire by using engine break which I'm fine with that. The performance on this scooter is mind blowing. I'm happy with my purchase. Did get it with a damaged breakline but rode the scooter an instantly fell in love.”
Hi Roger,
We are sorry to hear that your scooter was not perfect out of the box.
I see that our team has already addressed the issues. Please keep in touch with them if you have any questions.
What are you mainly using your scooter for?
Exploring Off-road at camp sites where I take my jeep as well as city travel when visiting or doing film shoots
“In short, this scooter is amazing. I travel almost full-time in my Jeep Wrangler doing filmmaking and Youtube. I am able to slide the scooter in behind the front seats (I've done a 60% seat delete) along with all my other camping/overlanding gear.
I was looking for a way I could explore areas away from camp as well as get around in town when camping in the city. This scooter has been absolutely a game changer. I am able to do full off-road on motorcycle single track trails, I can pop curbs no problem in the city, I can keep up with most traffic clocking in around 42mph actual speed and I can use the scooter for about a week of real world use before having to charge it.
The weight of the scooter is significant, so do keep that in mind. I typically lift the front tire and place in the jeep then lift the back and roll it in. Its right at 100lbs so its significant. I can pick the whole thing up and lift if I have to but I try not to do that. I would be tempted to go with the Max version given it goes 60mph and longer battery but the additional weight i was concerned about. I would likely go that route however if I had it to do over again.
Speaking of speed. The steering stabilizer is useful and I have mine dialed in. Its a bigger deal in my opinion with the knobby tires on it which I have installed. Installing the tires was easy and I did it with a couple of motorcycle tire changing spoons. The time required was about 1.5 hrs but would likely be faster next time.
Overall stability is just rock solid at all speeds. I have ridden friends scooters and there is no comparison. Mine feels like the Bat-Scooter in comparison. Its bullet proof. I've jumped logs with it (preload the rear and use the V on the back to take weight off the front), I've followed dirt bikes through trails, I've gone through my property woods through no trails and it just hammered through. It's insane.
CONS
I can't say enough positive about this scooter. However, here are a few things I wish they would do better. It needs an app so you can lock the wheels by phone so if you run in to get something at a store there is a level of security built in it. It has a number lock but thats a complete pain and it doesn't lock the wheels. The weight of the scooter would be a limiting factor in someone quickly stealing it IF it locked the wheels. Without that I use the foldable lock that goes through the V frame in the back and secure it that way when needed.
Its big. Like, I've carried another person on it successfully and it handled it no problem. That's actually a positive but it does tell something about its size. It's also long, you aren't going to get this in a trunk without it being your granddad's land yacht. It literally takes up almost from door to door sideways in the jeep wrangler with probably about 3-5" to spare.
It's heavy. This adds to its stability but it is a factor when needing to "throw" it in the back of the pickup or van or whatever you carry it in. Having a way to pick up front end and place in then lifting the back is best way to keep from accidentally hurting yourself.
It folds awkwardly making the digital panel at risk of damage. I place a heavy sock over the digital panel every time I fold it because it happens to land right at the point where the V on the back part of the frame travels up. I would highly recommend placing a protective cover of some sort on it when it is folded. On a good note, it does fold easily and locks where it feels very solid.
It's wide. This is also a positive. The handlebars are very wide which provide extreme stability but if using in the city among pedestrians you need to be conscious of how far you stick out. Its as wide as a typical mountain bike.
Overall. I'm extremely satisfied with this scooter and I have hundreds of miles on it at this point and its just as solid now as it was when I bought it. I would buy again (although probably the max)”

UberEat
“I got my burn e 2 scooter from CHUCK in NYC Brooklyn and it is the best scooter I've ever purchased. Chuck is knowledgeable and he patiently answers all my inquiries and concerns and even throws some tips to me as well. I've been doing UberEat with it and after 30 miles, I still have approximately around 45-50% battery juice ranging from 20-30 mph. I do recommend the first few days riding it and testing out the scooter and tuning according to your preference. For me, I need additional turn and tuning the suspension to prevent wobbling at high speed. Rider Guide ESG is a good video when it comes to programming and tuning the suspension. Definitely recommend to my peers to CHUCK at NYC if they need an awesome scooter.”

Recreational Use
“This is my very first super scooter.. and I must say I’m impressed. I went with the Burn E 2 (not max) for the savings. Don’t let the non brand battery or less power scare you away. This thing is powerful. The acceleration is quite intense and I’ve been cruising around 40mph no problem. (I’m 6’3”, 235 lbs) and it has no problem ripping me up the steepest hills. The ride is so smooth, and the suspension is impressive. Just an all around fun, useful scooter. I’m in the suburbs of Chicago, but enjoy taking it up town and around the local trails. The range is impressive.. and the Burn E 2 is built like a tank, with a great look, nice accent lighting etc. Be aware this isn’t your average “bird” scooter. This is a power house of a machine and it’s quite intimidating the first time you get on it. Have Fun!”

As my main source of urban transportation
“I truly enjoy this scooter.However, when the package arrived it took my 1.5 hours to set up. The steering column spine was detached and I had to unbolt the sleeve bolts to pull it out so that I could attach it to the stem. The headlights were also not set up below the wires, so I had to unattach the headlights as well, which was a pain because the metal sleeve is hard to bend back. I had to use needle-nose pliers. The handlebars are also attached with compression via two screw heads, so you will have to figure out the appropriate torque or the handbars will rotate slightly on your first ride. The battery percentage left is also not very reliable once you get below 25% because the voltage drop when you go up hills will drop the battery voltage below the minimum threshold and cause the scooter to shut down. So far I've gotten to 64 miles on a single charge before the above mentioned shut down issue occured, which is still excellent given the number of hills I have to navigate in San Francisco. For a more flat terrain, the range should easily exceed 70, and you won't likely draw down the voltage when you go up 15˚ hills.
The only thing that concerns me is the maintenance costs, but if a full year passes before anything needs maintenance, than the costs is worth it. The tires are already very strong, and you can load them up with anti-flat fluid to render getting a flat a completely non-issue. If you use the regen braking, I would suggest starting out at setting 1 until you get used to it. I have mine set to #2. That should give the brake pads some time before they need to be replaced. The brakes themselves are incredible. Riding down hills is not very scary as it was on the Mercane wide-wheel.
My only real complaint is the turn signal/horn/headlights module should be on the left-side, not by the thumb throttle. I like the thumb throttle. You just have to put it so that it's comfortable and have the brakes angling slight down when you make your adjustments.
Riding the scooter is really easy. It goes up hills no problem and is easy to switch into modes. I especially love how you can adjust the power to each wheel. The suspension is first rate, but I suggest you turn the know all the way to the right (firm) and then back 2 or 3 clicks to the left. You want a little bounce, but not too much, or you will bottom out the platform. The spring wrench provided by Nami is useless. If you want to adjust the springs you will have to buy a special tool. I just left the springs as is, but I do want to pre-load the front spring a little more when I get a chance.
Worth the money. Everything is built well.”
