this is going to piss off many users , without overcoat it is difficult to avoid tarmac on the back of the user

I thought I posted this in the Chennai event whatsapp group. Also this photo doesn’t cover everyone, a few of them were still on the beach when this pic was taken.

A post was split to a new topic: Solo ride to Mahabalipuram

How was the experience, Did cops cleared their doubts?

Was part of a group ride that happened last Saturday (15-11-2019) from AtherSpace to N4 Beach.

A post was merged into an existing topic: Ownership Experience

Hi All,
First time I rode through 3 ft of water for over 15 mins, almost near my hip level in Ather :smiley:

Even busses got stuck due to water running over on tailpipe.

It was funny as it felt like I was swimming in water as bike was completely under water, I didn’t even turn to sports, just used the Ride mode as always and the bike glided like charm.

Pls do not take the vehicle in water that is above the footboard. Though the battery is IP67, the motor and power electronics are IP65 and are not protected when the vehicle is submerged in water.

@frozenprakash what Raghav said. The vehicle is designed for up to 300mm of water wading capacity. Anything more would have severe consequences on the motor & battery electronics. General rule of thumb is to make sure water doesn’t go above the floorboard.

Hi Rahul! I’m wandering if we should make an Auroville group ride as now we are 6 users and more are coming! :laughing: I got my scooter since friday, until yesterday afternoon it was a bit complicated because it was not charging, it seems Ather has to send an “authentication code” to the the scooter and they didn’t, so we tried many useless things… But now everything’s fine and people in Pondicherry are like this :flushed: when they see me accelerating or just going reverse! If any of you “Chennai guys” comes around, it will be a pleasure to ride with you and, just for your information, electricity is sustainable and “free” here so I think it’s the best place for EV’s! :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Hey Jeremie , that’s great news :grinning:. Ather does the installation of DOT and takes care of the pairing but since you took the DOT in hand during delivery there has been a slight delay in mapping your Ather with the DOT. Good to know the installation and charging has been sorted out and you are enjoying your ride :wink:. Auroville Is the best place for EV’s and I had real fun time riding my Ather during last visit. Will plan again very soon with few more Ather’s from chennai until then enjoy riding and keep envying others with your Ather :stuck_out_tongue:.
