Frequently Asked Questions
CEMOTO's FAQs were previously scattered across the main FAQ page, individual product pages, policy pages and the contact page — with overlapping and sometimes conflicting answers.
This section consolidates everything into one categorized knowledge base. Where two sources disagreed, the conflicting answers are shown side by side with a note, so you can see what each page states.

Most frequently asked
When will my eBike ship?
Orders usually ship within 1–2 business days. Tracking is sent by email. Most U.S. customers receive their order in 4–8 days.
What is the warranty?
CEMOTO products carry a 1-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. The frame, battery, controller and motor are each covered for 12 months; the instrument panel is covered for 6 months.
Are the bikes assembled when they arrive?
No — they arrive partially assembled, typically 85–90 % complete. You will need to install the front wheel, handlebars, pedals or footpegs and the seat post, then complete basic adjustments. All required tools and instructions are included. Most riders are ready to ride in 20–45 minutes.
What payment methods do you accept?
Major credit and debit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover), PayPal, Shop Pay, and wire/bank transfer for approved orders.
What is your return policy?
You have 15 days from delivery to request a return. The bike must be in new, unused, resalable condition in its original packaging. For personal-reason returns, the customer covers return shipping.
Do you ship outside the United States?
No. CEMOTORIDE currently ships to the 48 contiguous U.S. states only, excluding Alaska, Hawaii, other islands, military bases (APO/FPO/DPO) and other restricted locations. Separate regional stores serve the United Kingdom (uk.cemotoride.com) and Europe (eu.cemotoride.com).
Are the bikes street legal?
D-series electric dirt bikes are off-road vehicles for private land and closed tracks. They are not sold as street-legal vehicles. CEMOTO eBikes are designed for on-road and improved-trail use, and some models are Class 2 street legal. Always check local laws.

How do I get technical support?

Important: conflicting answers on the source site
While consolidating the FAQs, a small number of contradictions between CEMOTO's own pages were identified. These are flagged in the relevant categories. The main ones:
| Topic | Conflict | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Warranty length | The Warranty Policy page, product pages and main FAQ state 1 year. The Contact page FAQ states 2 years on key components. | Warranty & Returns |
| Return window | The Refund Policy page states 15 days. The main FAQ states 45 days. | Warranty & Returns |
| Cancellation fee | The Refund Policy states 3 % after 90 minutes; the Shipping Policy states 5 % after 2 hours and 8 % plus return shipping after dispatch. | Returns & Refunds |
| Delivery estimate | Product pages state 4–8 days; the Shipping Policy states 7–15 business days. | Shipping & Delivery |
Recommendation: these should be reconciled to a single set of figures before this documentation is published. The official policy pages on cemotoride.com are the governing source unless stated otherwise.
