Thanks for all the replies.
Jonescg I think I saw the voltron in a YouTube video, has it got 2 motors? Looks pretty cool. I'll come and watch you if you're at Queensland raceway again.
I'm thinking maybe I could go with 5 battery packs that can easily be removed from the bike if more than 2...
Thanks for the reply. I'm based in Tingalpa, it's about 20ks south of Brisbane.
Would pouch cell be strong enough? I want to use the bike for motocross. I did a little research and I think for the battery I would be best off using 18650 cells like the Tesla cars. I'm assuming the Alta bike...
Perhaps 45kw would be a little excessive. I didn't realize these motors produce so much torque. A modern 250 motocross bike produces 45HP and 20LB of torque and a 450 58HP 35LB.
So I'm thinking the best option for weight would be a smaller motor with more power from the batteries and an large...
I found this on YouTube he's got 60HP out of it but it's a custom zero motor. I could do with something that will fit straight off the shelf.

Hi thanks for your reply.
My goal is to build a bike that is similar to the Alta Motors redshift MX.
The bike is not available in Australia yet and I believe it's $12000 USD. So I was thinking if I can get a lightweight motor and battery pack I can build something as powerful for a little...
Hi
I'm new to this forum and keen to learn.
I am going to build an electric dirt bike using a KTM rolling chassis but I have very little knowledge of the motor, batteries and controller I need to use.
So what would be a good motor that is fairly light, reliable and 55HP plus?
What are the best...
