At Motovox, safety is our number one priority. There is an inherent
level of risk when using any motorized powersports product and an
electric mini bike is no dierent. Read the following warnings carefully
to understand how you can avoid injury to yourself, others and your
MBxXSe.

RULE NUMBER 1

READ THIS BOOK COMPLETELY BEFORE RIDING THE FIRST TIME.

There is valuable and important information in this user guide that will
keep you safe and protect your minibike from becoming damaged from
neglect. Read it carefully and understand the contents. If you have any
questions please call us at 888-488-6686.

RULE NUMBER 2

PARENTAL SUPERVISION REQUIRED.

An electric powersport product is not a toy. A child can not be left alone
to play with this product. Any rider under the age of 8 should not ride
this mini bike and all children must have parental supervision when
riding. The age of 8 is only an estimate as it is aected by weight, height
and riding ability. A parents’ decision to allow their child to ride this mini
bike should be based on their child’s level of maturity and motor skills.

RULE NUMBER 3

RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.

Any mishap while using a powersports product can result in serious
injury or death. Avoid situations where you can’t see what is in front
of you or behind you, where other trac is present and/or where your
speed is too fast for the conditions. Always ride within your own
limitations. Always obey local laws and regulations in your area.
Do not ride your minibike where such vehicles are prohibited.

RULE NUMBER 4

NEVER RIDE ON PUBLIC ROADWAYS

This minibike is designed for o-road use only. Never ride in roadways or
near any motor vehicles.

RULE NUMBER 5

RIDE SMART.

Never attempt to carry a passenger. Keep both hands on the handlebars

at all times. Never ride while wearing headphones, earbuds, or while
using a cell phone. Keep ngers and other body parts away from moving
parts like the drive chain and sprocket as injuries may result. Never
attempt to jump o of a ramp or near stairs. Never use near a pool or
near spraying water. Always wear proper riding attire including gloves,
knee pads, sturdy shoes, a properly tting DOT approved helmet and
goggles. Keep loose clothing and shoelaces away from moving parts like
the drive chain and sprockets.

FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THE ABOVE RULES AND CAUTIONS COULD RESULT
IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. USE WITH CAUTION, BE AWARE
OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS AND PRACTICE SAFE RIDING TECHNIQUES.

If you have determined that your child is ready to ride please remember
the following points:

• Never let your child ride without a helmet.

• Your child’s safety is your responsibility. Do not take it lightly.

• Never push you child to try things before they are ready.

• Always supervise your child when they are riding.

• Proper maintenance and upkeep of the mini bike is key to safe riding.

PLEASE NOTE:
Any modications or improper accessories added to the mini bike
with parts that are not manufactured by Motovox can make it unsafe.
Motovox strongly recommends that you do not remove any of the
original equipment or make any modications that alter the design
and/or operation of the mini bike.

STEP 2. ATTACH THE HANDLEBARS

Your MBxXSe arrives almost
completely assembled, making it easy to start riding. The only assembly
that is required for your MBxXSe is to attach the adjustable handlebars.
All cables and controls are already hooked up to the bike, so attaching
the handlebars is easy:

1. Using the 6mm Allen wrench from your
tool kit, remove the four bolts and two
handlebar clamps from the top of the fork
and set aside.

2. Place the handlebars into position in the
lower clamps. Take care to get the
handlebars centered side to side, and set
in your desired upright position.

Be careful not to lean the handlebars too far forward or

backward as this will aect the bike’s handling and comfort of the ride.

3. Place the top clamps and bolts in position and tighten the four bolts
securely to 12 ft. lbs.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

STEP 3. CHARGE THE BATTERY

First, be sure that the toggle switch

on the top of the “tank” is switched to the o position.

Locate the battery charger port which is under the seat on the right side
(shown at right) and ip up the small round black protective cap. Under
this cap you will see a round connector with three small contact posts.
Note that there is a small spline at the bottom of the connector

On the round end of the battery charger cord, you will see a plug that
has three small holes and a notch which ts into the connector on the
minibike. Insert the plug into the connector rmly. There is a round
ring-nut that you can use to tighten the plug into the connector, but
this is optional.

STEP 1. UNPACK YOUR MBxXSe. The contents is as follows:

1. MBxXSe Electric Minibike

2. Tool Pouch with tools

3. Battery Charger

4. Owners Manual

Once you have located all of these items, move on to step 2.

Now plug the other end of the charger into a regular 110-volt household
outlet. There is a small indicator light on the charger that will light up
and stay on which indicates that the battery is charging.

Battery Charger Battery Charger Port

NOTE: ALLOW AT LEAST 12 HOURS FOR YOUR FIRST BATTERY CHARGE

NEVER USE A NON-MOTOVOX BATTERY CHARGER ON
YOUR MBxXSe. FIRE HAZARD, PERSONAL INJURY AND DAMAGE TO THE
VEHICLES CHARGING SYSTEM MAY OCCUR.

DO NOT LEAVE THE BATTERY CHARGER CONNECTED
TO THE BATTERIES FOR MORE THAN 48 HOURS AS SEALED LEAD ACID
BATTERIES WILL BECOME OVERCHARGED. THIS CAUSES DIMINISHED
STRENGTH AND LIFE SPAN OF THE BATTERIES.

STEP 4. CHECK OVER THE ENTIRE BIKE FOR LOOSE BOLTS
OR PARTS.

Some screws and bolts may become loosened during
shipping. Look over the entire bike and pay particular attention to the
axle bolts, brake caliper bolts and steering pivots. See the section
entitled BEFORE YOU RIDE for additional suggestions.
