Unlocking Speed: How to Remove the Limiter on Your Electric Scooter

Are you looking to unleash the full potential of your electric scooter by removing the speed limiter? This guide provides a comprehensive step-by-step process on how to achieve that freedom. However, before proceeding, it is critical to understand the legal implications and safety risks associated with modifying your scooter, as it can void warranties, render the scooter illegal on public roads, and increase the risk of accidents. Always prioritize safety and adhere to local laws. Here's what you might consider when attempting to remove the speed limiter from your electric scooter:



  1. Check the Scooter's Manual: Start by consulting the user manual. It may contain information on speed settings that can be adjusted legally.

  2. Access the Controller Settings: Some scooters allow users to access controller settings via an app or control module to adjust speed limits.

  3. Physical Limiters: For scooters without software speed settings, physical removal of a speed-limiting wire or component within the scooter might be necessary.

  4. Aftermarket Solutions: In certain cases, third-party kits or controllers are available that can be installed to bypass the speed limiter. These should be used with caution and may require technical expertise.

  5. Seek Professional Help: If you're not confident in performing the modifications yourself, consider enlisting the help of a professional.


Removing the speed limiter on an electric scooter may offer you more power, but with great power comes great responsibility. Make sure you're prepared for the increased speed with appropriate safety gear and by knowing your capabilities. Do not forget to stay informed about updates that could affect scooter firmware and consequently any modifications made. Ride responsibly!
