Hi
THis is my first post on Endless Sphere. I´ve read a lot and the electric world is interesting. Interesting because as a Danish citizen there is some pro´s utilizing electric vehicles. Especially motorcycle registered types.
I´m thinking of building a pendler motorcycle/trike. I´m no electrician mastermind, far from. So i would like to use an existing frame/idea which i would modernize.
Frame/trike:
http://www.elektroauto-forum.de/Kleinanzeigen/index.php?id=410&bildansicht=0
Pro´s:
- low weight
- registered as motorcycle
- easy to work on
- requires low power to get sober speed
- cheap to run
- These Ellert/CityEl are already integrated in the Danish system which makes it easy register.
- aerodynamic
Con´s:
- Might be touchy in windy areas
- small wheels(less stable)
- only 1 person
-
My needs:
80/100km/h(need to follow normal traffic speed).
Enough Ah to go 40-50km in harshest condition(-10 celcius and headwind)...absolute worst case.
My thoughts:
- Rip out old electricals
- Install new engine(what size(kw) should i go with and at what V? I´ve been thinking of between 15-20kw)?
- Lifepo4 batteries, i assume there should be plenty of room to fit the required amount.
- upgrade the nonexisting suspension.
Be advised that i have no experience in this though i have been building motorcycle before. This will only be a pendler machine as i have my big motorcycle for the fun part.
A "kit" would be nice, though not necessary as i assume i can leech on information at this forum
