Full Specifications
The Talaria Sting R is the UK’s industry-leading electric dirt bike — an all-new air-cooled platform delivering 4 kW of nominal power and an 8 kW peak. That’s a 33% increase over the original Sting, giving you notably faster acceleration and a 13% higher top speed.
The redesigned air-cooled motor reaches a peak efficiency of 96.6% and produces 45 Nm of instant torque. Combined with a rigid frame and upgraded swingarm, the Sting R puts every watt to the ground.
The 60 V 45 Ah pack uses premium LG cells and carries 18% more capacity than the original — 38 Ah to 45 Ah. That translates to an honest 52 miles of range and, thanks to a 25% reduction in charging time, a full 0–100% charge in just 3 hours.
For the money, nothing in the UK matches the Sting R for power, range and build quality. Looking for a registerable version? See the Sting R L1E Road Legal. Need spares or upgrades? Browse genuine Sting R parts.

Unreal for the money. Faster than my mate's petrol pit bike and silent. The hydraulic discs are brilliant.
Performance and handling are spot on. Three hours to charge is fine but I bought a second charger for back-to-back ride days.
