maitilupas said:thanks for all the info , much appreciated, ill follow some of your examples , the circuit breaker pre charge resistor are good ideas for protection.
the chain should not be loud as the #400s, is your motor well configured not shaking or making noise? why is the chain loud? i find the #219 very silent , you must have something somewhere i think

Hi mate, I bought this one... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/63A-DC-C...495247&hash=item3f53e959ec:g:URUAAOSw3YNXYTfc
Not sure if it will be the correct ampage. I have an AC version , same amp rating, on my nyx bike and it have never tripped with around around 100amp peaks.
The lmx is pretty much finished, i just need to spend some time tuning the kelly controller and taking it for some test rides before a proper shake down in the woods. Ive had a busy and testing couple of weeks at home and in work so i am a bit out of rhythm with the bikes at present. I will try and make another video clip soon with some shots of the finished bike. I must say, at present the chain is fiercely loud

are you using 2 of these? it says DC 63A, 2 together might work?
great to hear you almost finish the build. I just barely started

maitilupas said:nice to hear, and i think you using the perfect amps ,I will try 40% it might give you the sweet spot , or first do allot of tests riding for a few hours and keep an eye on motor temperature
also much more than 160 peak amps is uncontrolable with such light bike ,
i will try a spot of 75 continues and 150 peak , seems sweet spot

I do more commuting than pleasure riding anymore anyways
def get a ride vid
Dogboy1200 said:I use this method to get the ideal chain adjustment on my ice dirt bikes. I disconnect the rear sock while the bike is on a stand, then you can freely move the swing arm thru its travel. Chain drives want zero preload and just a little free play to work best.The chain will be tightest when the center lines of the drive sprocket, swingarm pivot and axle are in a straight line. Adjust the chain so there is no preload on it and has a slight amount of play with the swing arm at this location. When people adjust the chain at full sag they have a tendency to have insufficient slack. This creates a tremendous load on components when it’s actually too short to pass this tightest spot location, that makes things wear faster.
