if I'm eligible to ride a Baroni EFV?

To comply with UK legislation all motorcycles using the public
highway must be registered.
You will require a valid driving licence (provisional or full).
If provisional you will also need a CBT (compulsory basic
training) certificate and your Baroni must be insured.

New Drivers/Riders
If you are 14 years+ and taking to the road for the first
time then the first step is to apply for your Provisional
Driving Licence.
Motorcyclists holding a provisional licence in category P,
must not ride on a public highway unless they have successfully
completed a training course for motorcyclists by an approved
examiner (Compulsory Basic Training or C.B.T.) and have been
issued with a certificate of competency.
For more information on C.B.T. in the Bailiwick please visit

Existing Drivers/Riders
Full Guernsey Driving Licence holders can ride a Baroni EFV
without L-Plates and carry a passenger as both models are
in the P category.
How
do I register my Baroni EFV?
UK Law
In the UK mainland your EFV will be delivered with full registration
and vehicle licence. There is no Vehicle Excise Duty to pay
on Baroni EFVs but the tax disc must still be displayed. Full
details of the procedure will be explained once your order
is complete.
Bailiwick of Guernsey
When you purchase a new Baroni EFV, there will be a ‘Welcome
Pack’ included together with a completed 267 DVLA vehicle
registration form. Take this form to your licencing office
and the appropriate paperwork will be completed to make your
new motorcycle road legal.

do
I need to wear a helmet?
For safety reasons we always advise the
use of a helmet.
Gloves, outdoor jacket, trousers and shoes will provide protection
and keep you warm. Even on warm days hands will get cold at
35mph.

Is
it easy to recharge a baroni efv?
Yes, it is very easy. Simply insert the
plug of the battery charger into any regular wall outlet and
the output plug into the inlet within the lockable seat compartment.
This will start the recharge process.
You can use any conventional 13 Amp socket to charge your
Baroni. If you wish to use an outdoor socket use an RCD protected
socket with weatherproof casing.
Battery charging takes 6-8 hours for a complete charge (zero
- full).

what
is the lifespan and cost of the batteries?
Battery life is dependant on the type of
journey and how well you maintain your motorcycle. The battery's
lifecycle will be reduced or damaged if an insufficient charge
level is retained for a long period of time.
Charge as regularly as possible - you don't have to wait until
you've drained the charge - and you'll see the benefit in
longer battery life. Typically, our sealed silicone/lead acid
batteries last from 400 to 1000 charge cycles.
The Baroni EFV150 has 4 batteries connected
in series. Each individual battery costs £25 to replace.
The Baroni EFV200 has 5 batteries connected in series, with
an individual cost of £20.

what
about maintenance?
The Baroni is designed for minimum maintenance.
Consider the fact that there is no combustion engine, no transmission,
no belts, no chains, no petrol, no lubricants, no ignition
plugs and no carburettor.
Practically any mechanic can carry out the little maintenance
that may be required.

what
can i do to keep my baroni efv secure?
- Always remove the key when you park.
- Always apply the steering lock when leaving the motorcycle.
Park somewhere visible.
- Invest in a D-lock, a disc lock or an armoured chain.
- Nearly half of all thefts take place outside the home, so
remember to secure your Baroni EFV whenever you leave it unattended.
- If you park your Baroni in a garage, consider securing it
to a ground anchor.
- If you are securing your motorcycle to 'street furniture',
make sure your chain cannot be looped over the top.
