Vehicle | 1993 Suzuki GSX-R1100 Donor bike from uncle. Already been de-ICED and now I'm in the process of taking it apart to clean. Also working out my component picks |
Motor | Mars E-TEK RT 24-72VDC Permanent Magnet DC Thing weighs a ton. |
Controller | Alltrax AXE 7234 Unpurchased (please advise) |
Batteries | Power Sonic PS12400, 12.00 Volt, Lead-Acid, AGM 5-6 AGM batteries. I'd like more than 40ah but I'm on a budget. |
System Voltage | 60 Volts |
Charger | Wagan 2513 $28 I was going to put one of these on each battery. More wires but I get an even and balanced charges to my batteries. It's out of stock so if anyone can recommend something else. |
DC/DC Converter | Up for suggestions |
Instrumentation | I'd love to leave some links for review but this page formats the web link when it hits a ".com" instead of the ending html or xml. Ugh. |
Top Speed | I'm hoping for a top speed around 55 and a range of 20 miles. Comments welcome. |
Acceleration | I plan on getting into the Alltrax software and making the acceleration delayed for safety. |
Range | 20 Miles (32 Kilometers) I'm hoping for 20 miles with the specs I have. |
Seating Capacity | 1 adult |
Conversion Time | 2 years |
Conversion Cost | Motor = $150 (a STEAL!) Controller = $250-350 Batteries = $400-600 Frame = $0 Sprockets = $140 Instruments = $125 |
Additional Features | I was looking to have a 14 tooth drive sprocket paired with a 70 tooth rear sprocket giving me a 5:1 gearing ratio. I'm fairly positive this will give me the range and speed I want. |
This is a work in progress I would LOVE to get some feedback on my equipment choices. I'd love to list my links but the page doesn't format anything after the ".com" in the address. |
