Are the Light Bee X and Light Bee 2 road legal?
The Sur-Ron Light Bee 2 is available in two distinct versions. The Light Bee 2 X is for off-road and private-land use only. The Light Bee 2 L3e is the road-homologated version, but UK public-road use still requires registration, insurance, a number plate and the correct rider licence entitlement. MotoEbikes will confirm the final UK requirements for the selected bike before handover.
