Hi Guys,
I'm currently looking into motor selection, and have been for some time, for a light weight (<100kg) short range street tracker style bike build. Wanting to stick with Air cooled to keep things simple (simpler is prob the better word) the Motenergy ME1115 was at the top of my list. Performance goal would be to have the bike keep with just about anything on the road up to the 100km/h mark (0-100 3 sec or better) but after some calculations and comparisons (Zero SR) with power, gearing etc I feel the ME1115 will let me down.
The other motor I have been interested in is the Emrax 207 running the Emsiso Edrive 400. Obviously there is a large price difference between this motor/controller and the Motenergy/Sevcon setup but I don't want to be disappointed and know on paper the Emrax specs are more than sufficient. Has anyone on ES had experience or even considered using this setup? I would be happy to go ahead with the Emrax if I could run the well used/reviewed sevcon controller but from the Emrax motor manual this combination is only good for 3500rpm. There is little info floating about online with regard to the Emsiso Edrive controller which makes putting down over 1200 euro difficult at this point.
Another option is the Z-force motor but getting your hands on one without buying the bike doesn't seem possible.
Cheers,
