Ask Mike Harris, a sheep and beef farmer just outside Te Awamutu, what changed most about his day-to-day farm life this year, and he’ll tell you—without hesitation—it’s the bike.
"I didn’t think I’d ever ditch my old two-stroke," Mike admits. "But once I tried the Surron, mate, I was hooked."
It wasn’t just the whisper-quiet ride. Or the torque that eats up hills like they’re nothing. It was the small stuff—the stuff you only notice when you live on the land.
No more rattling the stock with engine noise. No fumes in your face. No stops at the petrol station every week. Just grab the bars and go.
Mike rides his Surron from sunup to sundown. Fence checks, trough inspections, chasing the odd runaway lamb—it keeps up with all of it. And because it’s electric, the maintenance is nearly nil. “I’ve got more time for the things that actually matter now—like getting home before dark.”
Across the country, more farmers are quietly switching. From Otago hills to Northland flats, the Surron is proving it’s more than just a weekend thrill machine—it’s becoming a legit farm tool.
And the best part? You’re not sacrificing fun. “After work, I’ll still hit the trails with the kids. It’s the same bike, just a different track,” Mike grins.
Farming’s changing. Maybe it’s time your ride did too.
