Vehicle | 1982 Honda CB750F Supersport |
Motor | Mars ME1003 Permanent Magnet DC |
Controller | Alltrax AXE 7245 (72V 450A) |
Batteries | 25 CALB/Skyenergy SE40AHA (40Ah cells), total capacity 3.2kWh, 80.00 Volt, Lithium Iron Phosphate Bottom-Balanced, so no BMS used. |
System Voltage | 80 Volts |
Charger | KP-E 600W 87.6V (72V) 6A Takes about 7-8hrs to charge from empty. |
DC/DC Converter | Kelly KDCC 72V to 13.5V 400W 30A Also charges a tiny 12V 2Ah LiFePo4 battery that is used for the key-start. |
Instrumentation | Cycle Analyst v2.3 |
Top Speed | 65 MPH (104 KPH) I could easily get more top speed with a larger front sprocket, at the cost of low end acceleration and energy consumption. |
Range | In my commuting at speeds of 50-80km/h on a 40km round trip (average speed of 47km/h according to CycleAnalyst) the bike uses only just over 50Wh/km, which should give me about 60km range. The 40km uses up just over 2kWh of the 3.2kWh total. |
Curb Weight | 400 Pounds (181 Kilograms) (With gasoline engine it was 558lbs / 253kg) |
Conversion Time | Actual construction took less than 2 months, mostly during evenings and weekends. |
Conversion Cost | 4400 euros (bike not included) |
Additional Features | Turns heads. ("WTF is that?") |
The bike has been converted, inspected and registered as a street legal electric motorcycle, but I have now sold it to a new owner. |
