Q: What’s the power and speed of the motor?
A: Power is 250W. Speed is 15.5mph. Both are the maximum limit allowed by EU regulation. However, you can always pedal yourself faster than the 15.5mph. Our rear wheel versions can be de-restricted to go beyond these limits (for off-road use).

and must be registered on an agreed list for off-road competition bikes, known as the FIM competition list, or be EC Type Examined.

*******, if I want to ride an overpowered bike on my own private land why should I have to register it on a competition list?

I would assume that's if you want to build and sell off road motorcycles, not use them.
