Electric motorcycle

[QUOTE=Paul51480;1742]I made a couple new videos today :

Sorry for the glare on the speedometer but its hard to do 55 down the road driving with one hand and videoing with the other… LOL…[/QUOTE]

aweosme! this weekend i’m picking up an old harly bike frame, hopefully it will be in good enough condition for me to clean up and make into an EB (Electric Bike)

Great job on that and the wiring looks great!
:smiley:

Hi everyone…

Well I just went out there today and made the panel and mounted my gauges like I said I was gonna do back in January LOL. I have all the lighting wired up save the headlight as I have misplaced the toggle I bought for it. My wiring job looks like crap but it works. I figure I will get it on the road then worry about rewiring and a paint job, I just really want to ride it to work LOL. I will try to get some pics and maybe a new video up tomorrow. Now that my first foray int EV is nearing roadworthiness I have started to cook up a new project. I hatched this in my head then found out its been done. 

Here is my next project :

Of course mine wont have the ICE :smiley:
