KuKirin X1 Electric Dirt Bike — 1000W Off-Road
The KuKirin X1 Electric Dirt Bike is a compact off-road machine that blends real dirt-bike styling with responsive electric power. A 1000W mid-drive motor, 48V 20.8Ah lithium battery and a top speed of up to 50 km/h give it strong acceleration and smooth delivery, while front and rear hydraulic suspension, dual hydraulic brakes and a 14″/12″ off-road tyre setup keep it planted on rough ground. Available now at Inner City Scooters in Dublin, Ireland — an off-road / private-land only electric dirt bike.
Dirt-bike thrills, electric simplicity
The X1 puts proper off-road performance within easy reach. Its 1000W mid-drive motor spins up to ~2400 RPM and delivers around 24 N·m of torque, with three selectable speed levels (25, 35 and 50 km/h) so you can match the power to the terrain and the rider. A high-capacity 48V 20.8Ah lithium pack supports a claimed range of up to 40 km between charges.
Triple-safety design
Ride at the limit with confidence. A magnetic switch cuts power instantly if the bike falls, a dedicated P-Mode prevents accidental throttle jumps at start-up, and an intelligent E-ABS braking system helps prevent wheel lock-up under hard stops.
Intelligent cockpit
A high-brightness, full-colour display stays crystal-clear even in direct sunlight, giving a clean readout of speed, gear and battery status so you always know exactly what the bike is doing.
Hydraulic suspension
Front and rear hydraulic shock absorbers soak up ruts, roots and rough trails, improving comfort and keeping the wheels tracking the ground for better control.
Dual hydraulic brakes
Hydraulic disc brakes front and rear, backed by the E-brake system, deliver strong, controlled stopping power with a short braking distance of roughly 4–6 metres.
Mixed off-road wheels
A larger 14″ front and 12″ rear wheel pairing on pneumatic off-road tyres improves stability and grip over uneven ground, giving the X1 a genuine dirt-bike stance.
48V 20.8Ah battery
The 48V 20.8Ah lithium battery (18650 cells) sits in a key-lockable housing for security, charging fully in roughly 8.5–9 hours for up to 40 km of off-road range.

FAQ about the KuKirin X1 Electric Dirt Bike
Is the KuKirin X1 road-legal in Ireland?
No. The X1 is a 1000W electric dirt bike capable of up to 50 km/h and is supplied strictly for off-road and private-land use. It is not type-approved, taxed or registered for public roads, so it must not be ridden on public roads, footpaths or cycle lanes in Ireland. Only ride it off-road on land where you have permission.
How far can it go on a charge?
The 48V 20.8Ah lithium battery offers a claimed range of up to 40 km. Real-world range depends on rider weight, terrain, speed mode and temperature, so expect less in demanding off-road conditions. A full charge takes roughly 8.5–9 hours.
How fast is it, and can I limit the speed?
The X1 has three selectable speed levels — 25, 35 and 50 km/h. Starting in the lower modes is a good way to build confidence or suit a less experienced rider before unlocking the full 50 km/h top speed.
Can it be ridden in the wet?
The X1 carries an IP65 water-resistance rating, so it handles damp trails and light rain. As with any e-bike, avoid deep water, submersion or jet-washing, and dry it down after wet rides to protect the electronics.
Who is it suitable for?
With a 120 kg maximum load and genuine dirt-bike performance, the X1 suits teen and adult recreational off-road riders. Because it's powerful and fast, riders should be confident, wear full protective gear and ride within their ability.
What's in the box, and does it need assembly?
It typically arrives largely assembled with only minor setup needed before riding. If you'd like a hand, our Dublin workshop can check it over and get it ready for you — just get in touch.
What warranty and support do you offer?
The X1 comes with a standard manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects, and Inner City Scooters provides after-sales support, spares and servicing from our Dublin base. Please confirm current warranty terms with us at the time of purchase.
Do you deliver across Ireland, and is finance available?
Yes — we ship nationwide across Ireland, typically within a few working days, and you're welcome to collect in Dublin. You can spread the cost with 0% finance options such as Klarna and humm at checkout, subject to approval.
