Talaria TL5500
Talaria Sting MX5 Pro for sale
72V, 13.4 kW peak unrestricted, Samsung 21700 cells.
The MX5 Pro is the 72V leader of the Sting line and the point at which the platform stops feeling like a trail bike. It runs Samsung 50S 21700 cells, a DC IPM motor and improved four-piston brakes. Note that it ships factory-limited; the unrestricted figures quoted here are for closed-course and OHV use.
- 72V 40Ah Samsung 50S 21700 cells
- 13.4 kW peak unrestricted
- Improved 4-piston brakes on 220 mm discs
- Ships factory-limited; derestriction is off-road only
Talaria Sting MX5 Pro top speed, range and power
The Talaria Sting MX5 Pro top speed is 60 mph, and it will cover up to 52 miles on a charge, from a 13.4 kW peak motor rated at 5.5 kW continuous producing 500 N·m at the rear wheel. It weighs 163 lb with a 33.1 in seat.
Peak output is a burst figure — on a long climb or in deep sand you are riding the 5.5 kW continuous rating, which is the honest number to compare between machines. The pack is removable, so it charges indoors and a second one doubles your ride day.

Who the Talaria Sting MX5 Pro is for
A good fit if you are
- Riders who want maximum specification per dollar in this catalogue
- Anyone cross-shopping the Ultra Bee — this is the direct rival, 24 lb lighter
- Riders around 5'8" and up, on a 33.1 in seat that is lower than the Ultra Bee's
- Anyone who wants a removable 72V pack with Samsung cells
- Tighter-trail riders who still want 60 mph on tap
Look elsewhere if
- Riders needing maximum range — 52 miles is short of the Ultra Bee's 62
- Anyone who values aftermarket depth above all, where Sur-Ron leads
- Complete beginners: 13.4 kW and 500 N·m is a lot of machine
What it is like to ride
On paper the MX5 Pro beats the Ultra Bee on every headline number — more peak power, more torque, higher top speed — and does it 24 lb lighter with a lower seat. In practice the two feel quite different: the Talaria is the sharper, more flickable machine and the Sur-Ron is the more planted one, and which you prefer depends far more on your terrain than on the spec sheet. The Samsung 50S cells are a genuine specification rather than marketing; cell quality drives sag under load and cold-weather behaviour more than nameplate amp-hours do. Where the Ultra Bee wins back ground is range and suspension travel.
Talaria Sting MX5 Pro price
The Talaria Sting MX5 Pro is $4,990 . That is firm US retail, benchmarked against live US dealer listings — freight is quoted separately against your destination.
It undercuts a base Ultra Bee while beating it on power, torque and top speed. The trade-off you are accepting is a narrower parts ecosystem and 10 fewer miles of range.

Common questions
- What is the Talaria Sting MX5 Pro top speed?
- The Talaria Sting MX5 Pro has a top speed of 60 mph, from a 13.4 kW peak motor rated at 5.5 kW continuous and 500 N·m at the rear wheel. Expect less into a headwind, uphill, on soft ground or with a heavier rider — that is true of every machine in this class.
- How much does the Talaria Sting MX5 Pro cost?
- The Talaria Sting MX5 Pro is $4,990. That is our firm US retail price, checked against live US dealer listings — not an indicative figure or an MSRP we hope to hit.
- How far will the Talaria Sting MX5 Pro go on a charge?
- Up to 52 miles from its 72V 40Ah pack, depending on terrain, rider weight and ride mode. The battery is removable, so you can charge it indoors, store it at sensible temperature over winter, and run a second pack for a double ride day. A full charge takes about 3 hours.
- What is the seat height of the Talaria Sting MX5 Pro?
- 33.1 inches, and the bike weighs 163 lb. Seat height decides suitability more often than power does, so if you are between models it is the number to compare first. Maximum payload is 220 lb.
- Is the Talaria Sting MX5 Pro street legal?
- No. This is a high-powered electric off-road motorcycle and is not street legal in most US jurisdictions in stock form. It is intended for private land and designated OHV riding areas. California SB 586 created an "eMoto" classification effective 1 January 2026 — it classifies these machines, it does not make them street legal.
- Talaria Sting MX5 Pro or Sur-Ron Ultra Bee?
- The Talaria Sting MX5 Pro is 13.4 kW and 60 mph at 163 lb, on a 33.1 in seat. The Sur-Ron Ultra Bee is 12.5 kW and 56 mph at 187 lb, on a 35.8 in seat. Weight and seat height usually decide this, not power — we compare them side by side if you want the detail.
