I have not spent as much time on ES as I used to. I have been busy with many things. One of them has been this bike.
About 2 years ago I picked up a 2005 CRF 450 with a rod sticking out of the cases. From there I started figuring out how I was going to make a fast and fun to ride Electric MX. I 3d printed about 5 jackshaft housings until I got a design I liked and 3d printed a jackshaft just to see how my design works out. I then found a Zero SR IPM R motor and took a sevcon Gen 4 size 6 off of another bike. I was able to find a 2018 Zero Longbrick from Hollywood electrics. I had to cut and widen and weld the frame to fit the battery in. My goal was to keep the motor and battery as low in the chassis as I could. Anyways. I will post all the build videos and try to add some info to this later.
