You should see how fast it is with a 13kg kid on it!! Had to turn the throttle response down, he was tearing up the grass. https://youtu.be/EdsVxyEjG7o

Thanks again Chris, You are a champion.

So although I rode a certain Electric race bike bike for a while I'm still a complete LiPo numpty and have no idea about such things other than it is the way forward. I bought the young fella an Oset bike which he loves and I really believe is a brilliant bit of gear but that is another story...

I always thought the same.......... then I rode it.

Well done though. Besides the crash I'd say you had a really successful weekend. I would say that was a lot better than two bikes turning up and quietly riding around when no-one is watching and not really achieving anything. You proved the electric bikes are capable of running with the pro...

The amazing thing about McWilliams wasn't so much the lap times, we are pretty confident the bike will go sub 60 at barbs with the right rider and some seat time. Lap time wasn't the objective, just a couple laps, a bit of fun and a little feedback on setup is what we wanted. What absolutely...

Yeah he did have the magnets he was chasing and something about controller tuning that he mentioned was giving him a bit more power than he previously had. Chris didn't he put it on the dyno at smsp? I seem to remember him being pleased with what it put out.

Our bike actually has a disadvantage on corner exits. The others have a larger tyre with more compound options and can get a lot more drive out of corners than I can. Would you believe even Ripperton has a larger and softer compound tyre than we ran all year providing him with more grip and...

I agree, I've mentioned already to Chris that the bike is faster than me now and needs a faster rider. I feel I've done a good job over the past 2 years in setup and riding but it's at a stage where it needs to be ridden at a level beyond me. I've had an absolute amazing time on the bike, met...

Well what a great round we had at Winton. That was the only time I can ever remember coming second and being ok with it. Normally I get a little depressed if I don't win but this time its all good. For a quick roundup we ran just over 6 seconds faster than last year which is proof that the...

So let me get this right..... Don't crash, win, and pull a 1:39 which is 3seconds faster than we went last time and 9 whole seconds off the previous lap record. Oh and by the way we have no money so we have to use old tyres. I'm glad you don't ask for much haha. See how we go. I do enjoy...

It all depends on what you want to build the bike for and how much power your looking at. Anything from a strong road racing cycling wheel could be used if you want aero and less drag. Assuming its a light weight motorcycle racing bike like a 125cc 2-stroke I personally wouldnt even think of...

I use a program called Dashware and overlay the data before I put the clips into an editor. Chris is correct the acceleration and braking are only g-forces, it took the highest value and scaled it, I should have taken more time to scale the bar or renamed it because it is a bit misleading. That...

Sorry I removed it but it's only because this one is so much better...... https://youtu.be/lDHSeqxQ84g If you only watch one of out videos, check this one out . It'll give a real good feel of what it's like on the bike. The guy in green is one of WA's fastest superbike riders, I'm pretty...

Finally got my act together and put a 1/2 decent video together from the last round. Some great racing! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6uq0lEqiHM&feature=youtu.be
