Look inside
Inside the Wilson’s MX40.
The Wilson’s MX40 electric dirt bike is the fastest of the MX line, with a 3,000 W motor that peaks at 4,500 W, a 40 mph top speed and a 58.8V 25Ah LG battery good for up to 38 miles. Tap a part to see it on the scooter.
Peaks at 4,500 W, double the MX35’s rated output, for strong pull out of corners and up climbs.
The biggest battery in the MX line, which is why the fastest bike also goes the farthest.

A disc at the rear, with chain drive to a 60/100-12 tire.
Heavier than alloy, and far more forgiving when it gets dropped.

Stop, roll, absorb
You feel it in the first block.
4,500 W at peak
The top speed is the headline. However, what you feel is acceleration that keeps pulling long after a smaller motor runs out, and climbs without slowing to a crawl.
A premium LG pack
58.8V and 25Ah of LG cells. Cell quality is where cheap packs cut corners, so naming the maker matters.
A 6A aluminum charger
Twice the current of the MX35’s charger, in an aluminum case that sheds heat, because heat is what wears chargers out.
Before you buy
Where a 40 mph dirt bike belongs.
This is an adult electric dirt bike. It has a throttle, no pedals and a motorcycle layout, so in most places it is not allowed on public roads, sidewalks or shared paths. Instead, it belongs on private land and on parks or trails where the owner allows it.
Rules differ between states, towns and single trails, and they change, so check the rules where you plan to ride before you buy.
Protective gear is not optional at 40 mph. Wear a helmet every time, plus gloves, boots and body armor for anything technical.

Questions
About the Wilson’s MX40.
How fast is the MX40?
40 mph, the highest top speed in the Wilson’s line. It is not the bike to learn on, so new riders should start on the MX35.
How far does it go?
Up to 38 miles, the longest in the MX line, because the battery is the biggest too.
What charger does it use?
A 6A charger in an aluminum case, twice the current of the MX35’s 3A unit.
Where am I allowed to ride it?
On private land, and on parks or trails where the owner allows it. A throttle, no pedals and a motorcycle layout usually keep it off roads, sidewalks and shared paths. Rules vary by state, town and trail, so check where you plan to ride.
Why is it cheaper than the MX37?
The MX37 spends its money on dual suspension and hydraulic brakes. The MX40 spends it on motor and battery instead.
Red or Black?
Same bike, same price. Red is easy to spot on open ground, and Black hides dust between washes.
