How to Set Speed Limiter on a Kids' Electric Dirt Bike
Step 1: Locate the speed limiter cable
On the Surron Hyper Bee, find the grey loop cable near the battery compartment. It's labeled "LIMITER".
Step 2: Choose your speed mode
Disconnected: 30 mph (full power). Connected (default): 15 mph (kid-safe). Aftermarket controller: Custom speeds between 10-30 mph.
Step 3: Secure the connection
For 15 mph mode, ensure the limiter cable is firmly plugged in. Zip-tie excess cable to prevent snagging.
Step 4: Test ride with parent supervision
Always test the limited speed in a safe, open area before letting your child ride independently.

Frequently Asked Questions - Electric Dirt Bikes for Kids
What age is appropriate for an electric dirt bike?
Ages 8-12: low-power bikes under 500W, top speed <=15 mph (e.g., Razor MX350). Ages 12-16: adjustable speed limiter bikes like Surron Hyper Bee (15-30 mph). Always prioritize helmet, gloves, and parental supervision. Volt Rush USA staff can help you choose based on your child's height and experience.
Can you put a speed limiter on a Surron for a kid?
Yes. Surron Hyper Bee and Light Bee X both have factory speed limiters. Hyper Bee limits to 15 mph; Light Bee X can be limited via controller programming. We offer free speed limiting on any bike purchased at Volt Rush USA.
What is the lightest electric dirt bike for a kid?
The Razor MX350 weighs only 42 lbs, perfect for ages 8-10. Surron Hyper Bee is 48 lbs - still manageable for most 12-year-olds. We have both for test rides at our St. Louis showroom.
Do I need a license for my kid to ride an e-dirt bike in Missouri?
On private property, no license is required. On public land (e.g., St. Joe State Park OHV trails), riders under 16 must be supervised by an adult and may need a safety certificate. Helmets are required for all riders under 26 in Missouri. For street riding (not recommended for kids), a driver's license and registration would be required.
