๐Ÿšฆ Step 2: Learn Scottsdale's E-Moto Rules

Once you've picked a bike, know where it can go. Scottsdale adopted Ordinance 4680 in July 2025, and for a Surron, Talaria or similar electric dirt bike it comes down to four points:

  • It isn't an e-bike. The city defines an e-bike as having fully operable pedals and a motor under 750 watts. Anything without pedals counts as a motorcycle or motor-driven cycle, depending on horsepower.

  • City roads need a title and registration. The City of Scottsdale prohibits electric motorcycles on city roadways unless they're titled and registered with the State of Arizona. Riders also need an "M" endorsement, insurance and eye protection.

  • No riders under 16 on city property. That covers electric motorcycles, Class 3 e-bikes and similar devices that reach 21 mph or more, in places like city parks, the Civic Center and the Preserve. The minimum fine is $100.

  • The Preserve is closed to motors. E-bikes, electric scooters and motorized bicycles are all prohibited on McDowell Sonoran Preserve trails.

Regular e-bikes play by different rules: Class 1 and 2 can use Scottsdale's multi-use paths and sidewalks, and Class 3 can't.

๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿ‘ง Step 3: Buying for a Teen? Plan Where They'll Ride

Scottsdale Fire Department e-bike "down" calls went from two in 2023 to eight so far in 2026, according to the East Valley Tribune, and a local petition reported in May 2026 asks the city to go further on young riders. Before you buy, plan where your teen will actually ride:

  • Under 16: keep e-motos off city property. Ride on private property with permission, or on designated OHV routes.

  • Under 18: a DOT helmet off-road. On Scottsdale roads, motorcycle riders under 18 must wear a helmet too.

  • Pick a bike sized for them. Our youth lineup includes the RFN Warrior Kids SX-350W and SX-500W.

๐Ÿœ๏ธ Step 4: Find Your Riding Spot

With the Preserve closed to motors, the go-to is the Tonto National Forest. The Desert Vista OHV Permit Zone sits north of the city in the Cave Creek Ranger District. You can reach it from the Westland OHV Trailhead at 144th Street or the Wildcat OHV Staging Area off Bartlett Dam Road.

  • Permit: every motorized vehicle in the zone needs a Tonto OHV permit, motorcycles included. Buy it on Recreation.gov for $10 (3 days), $60 (6 months) or $80 (1 year).

  • Decal: Arizona also requires an OHV decal to ride on public land. Our street-legal guide explains the decal and the steps to plate a bike.

  • Routes: stick to designated routes only.

๐Ÿ”ง Step 5: Line Up Service, Upgrades and Your Trade-In

After the sale, the Tucson shop handles warranty support, servicing, repairs, replacements and upgrades. Our team also helps you choose performance parts and installs them, with model-specific parts for the Surron Light Bee and Ultra Bee, E Ride Pro, Talaria, Arctic Leopard, Ventus and more.

Trading in? Fill out the trade-in form with a few photos. We usually reply with an estimate within 72 hours, then finalize the offer once we've inspected the bike.

โ“ Scottsdale Rider FAQs

1. Can I ride my Surron on Scottsdale streets?

Only once it's titled and registered with the State of Arizona, and only if you have an "M" endorsement, insurance and eye protection. Otherwise Scottsdale requires motor-driven cycles to stay on private property.

2. Can I ride a Surron on trails in Scottsdale?

Not in the McDowell Sonoran Preserve. Motorized devices, e-bikes included, are banned on its trails. For off-road riding, head to the Desert Vista OHV Permit Zone with a Tonto OHV permit and an Arizona OHV decal.

3. Can my 14-year-old ride an e-moto in Scottsdale?

Not on city property. Scottsdale bars riders under 16 from operating electric motorcycles in places like parks and the Preserve. Private property with permission or a designated OHV route are the options, with a DOT helmet for anyone under 18.

4. Do I need a motorcycle license for a Surron?

On Scottsdale roads, yes: a driver's license with an "M" endorsement, plus registration and insurance. Off-road on public land, you need an Arizona OHV decal.

5. What does a Surron cost?

On our site, the 2026 Surron Light Bee 2 (24kW) is $6,099 and the 2026 Ultra Bee is $6,500. Prices can change, so give the shop a quick call.

6. Where can I buy a Surron near Scottsdale?

We carry the Surron Light Bee 2 and Ultra Bee at our Tucson showroom, along with Surron parts and upgrades. Closer in, Screwie Lewie's in Phoenix also lists Surron in its e-bike lineup.
